What Do You Do in Your Forties?

April 16th, 2015

When you turn 40, it is highly likely that you will start to change certain elements of your life, and you will find that you prefer to do things now that you have never done before. Maybe you are not old enough yet to be sat in front of a casino slot machine for hours at a time (or maybe you do like to do this now?), but you might start to like things like long scenic walks, which may never have appealed to you before.

It is perfectly natural that your tastes in life change when you hit the big 40. Maybe your party days are now behind you, and your social preferences have changed significantly. Maybe the kids are older now and you have more time to go out with your husband and see things that you have wanted to do for the last 10 years or so but couldn’t as you had the kids with you.

You choice of holidays may change too. You may now prefer a much more active holiday than before, where you used to like to go and laze on the beach during the day and hit the clubs during the nights. This is the natural progression of a woman in her forties, and although not all follow this path, many do, and they all seem to find that one thing in common with other women in their forties.

Such is the speed at which things in life are evolving now, we can’t really compare the things we do now with the previous generation. The last 25 years has seen a massive surge forward in as far as technology goes, and now things like mobile phones are a part of our lives and something that we rely on heavily for a number of things, and they were not even invented a generation ago. The same goes for the internet, as this was only born in the early 1990s.
