- It's almost impossible to move forward without looking back. You might think you're unique and your situation is different. Yes, while that may be the case, I've come to realize that the things we regret are actually a lot more common and un-unique!

Everyone is welcome to my channel. However, if you're not over 40 you may NOT understand.
Midlife crisis is a shift in identity and self-assurance that can happen to people in their middle years, usually between the ages of 40 and 60. The condition is defined as a psychological crisis triggered by life experiences that draw attention to an individual's advancing years, impending death, and potential lack of achievements. This may result in extreme sadness, regret, and worry, as well as the desire to regain their youth, drastically alter their current way of life, or feel compelled to make amends for past choices and incidents. According to Vaillant (2012), research on midlife crises reveals that they are less prevalent than previously thought. During the course of his 75-year longitudinal study on adult development, he discovered that participants in the study had very few experiences with midlife crises. The phrase was coined by Elliot Jaques in 1965.
This channel is NOT about any kind of crisis.

The forties have been 'unpopularised' because it's the period when our pursuit of material successism is constantly being challenged by modern day society standards. All of a sudden, we're busy counting our regrets.
Amazing and informative video 😊🫶🏾
@@theatienor Thank you for watching and for your kind words ☺️. In your opinion what do you think is the 15th regret? Maybe you’ve observed elsewhere….
@@ManoeuveringMidlifeMy biggest regret is not having the confidence to pursue my talents and dreams when I was younger. I let self-doubt hold me back from exploring my passions and potential. I wish I had been more courageous and believed in myself more, as I feel like I missed out on opportunities that could have shaped my life differently. Now, I'm working on building my confidence and pursuing my dreams, even if it's later than I hoped.
@@theatienor I feel you 💯... As someone in my mid-40s, I’ve learned that self-doubt is a common hurdle we all face, but it doesn’t have to hold you back. It's good that you believe in your potential and are starting to take steps towards your dreams every day. Surround yourself with supportive people who lift you up and remind you of your worth. STAY CLEAR OF THOSE THAT ALWAYS DISCOURAGE YOU. They are not visionaries, they are DREAM-K!LL3RS. Be kind to yourself and watch your confidence grow with each step you take. You've got this!🤗
@@ManoeuveringMidlife Thank you so much for your encouraging words! I really appreciate your advice and support. You're absolutely right, self-doubt is a common obstacle, but it's not insurmountable. I'm grateful for your reminder to surround myself with positive influences and to be kind to myself. Thank you so much again 🫶🏾

hii am in my mid 40s too thank you for your beautiful videos very well put, so can we know your life story if you dont mind love from Nairobi.
Thanks so much🙏 for your kind words and for watching my videos! I sort of give my story in another video (which I linked it in this video). I intend to another one after I complete another milestone. Please stick around for that.. 🙂. By the way, what is the 15th biggest regret in your opinion as a midlifer?😊
@@ManoeuveringMidlife my biggest regret is honestly staying too long in a bad situation that never served me,am still here imagine such a shame ,another one of my greatest regrets is i should have persued my dreams now i just imagine them in my mind,but am working on my life i believe its not too late.
@@maddemadetv445 Sending you hugs 🤗 my dear! The fear of the unknown makes it harder to get out of a bad situation. I wish you courage. I am here with you, pursuing my dreams at mid-40s. I believe you can, too. Start by taking small manageable steps. If you can still visualize yourself actually achieving your dreams (no matter how big), then you're halfway there. And please guard and keep them private because there are people (even close relatives) who will always plant doubt, because it is human nature to fear the unknown. xoxo
@@ManoeuveringMidlife thank you girl i will
