Things Every Girl Should Do At Least Once In Her Life

Stop having regrets altogether, I’d say. Every woman can relate to this. The burden of your failed opportunity, every missed chance and every lost memory becomes too heavy to bear. It often rescinds women into taking up other chances. The best that you can do is to let go. Let go, and forgive, both the people and the situations. Let go of your 2 AM thoughts, of all things that went wrong and understand that it is a practise that you must learn.

“I owned every second that this world could give. I saw so many places, the things that I did. Yeah with every broken bone I swear I lived…”

A song from One Republic that you must listen to and make your anthem. Yes, the past might have been daunting and unfavourable. But, how much did you learn from it? Are you sure you lived?

Make it not just a one time thing but a practise that you have. Regular health exams and tests can help find problems before they start. They also can help find problems early, when your chances for treatment and cure are better. By getting the right health services, screenings, and treatments, you are taking steps that help your chances for living a longer, healthier life.

Hair is an integral part of a woman’s personality, something they have a chance at immediate manipulation. A famous quote says,

“If she changes her hair after a breakup.. she’s gone forever Bruh.”

That goes beyond a woman recovering from pain. Have a switch every once in a while. You owe your perfect long strands to no one but yourself.

Saying it with regards to your safety, but you must travel alone. More than once. Make it a ritual. It doesn’t matter if you have a boyfriend or other commitments. Traveling alone might sound intimidating, but solo travel can truly be the best gift you ever give yourself. It is a life-changing experience, an opportunity to make new friends, immerse yourself in the local culture, and get acquainted with the most genuine parts of yourself.

Girl, if I have to tell you this, then you have missed out on so much already. Depending on someone else for pleasure is unhealthy and dangerous. Research and anecdotal reports suggest that sexual stimulation, including stimulation through masturbation, may help you relieve built-up stress. It also helps yousleep better, boost your mood, relax, feel pleasure, relieve cramps, release sexual tension, have better sex. It helps you get a better understanding of your own self, basically. There are an array of tools to help you too. Get your groove on, girl.

You need to learn to live alone. There is a whole other level of thrill when you are solely responsible for your own self. You must instill the kind of discipline it takes that can guarantee your independence. Getting to know the silence you have when the world drops out of the stage and only you remain. Yeah, that’s something worth chasing.

Chances are, you are a career girl who has lived her job. You don’t allow yourself a break, no matter how much you think you deserve it. And that has consumed you. A sabbatical is something that can fill your education gap, improve your health, and enrich your travel experience. It’s okay. You are allowed, both the break and the freedom.

This is not a materialistic check, but a genuine bucket list option that you must cross off. Take yourself to the beautiful Florence sunset and the summer of Crema. Reward yourself the train trip to Germany and a night under the Eiffel Tower. I am not saying it’s cheap or something everyone can do, I am saying it is most certainly worth it.

Why not? You can go through it at genuine sites available all over the internet. Fun sites like Ancestry.com and all give that information for free. Take a minute to ponder about your beginning. There were generations before you. A billion people who couldn’t survive the evolution, but you did. Your very existence is remarkable. You better cherish it.

You must. Photograph yourself as a sign of love and honour. Memories that you would very much like to have. Women are not allowed to age gracefully, they are often taunted and sidelined with their increasing age. It’s time they learn to celebrate it. Ageing is wonderful. No one should be shamed for adding years to their lives. Rather, they should be celebrated for it. Photograph yourself more often than you do.

It is essential for you as a woman to start having conversations and friendships with people who are outside your comfort zone. People with personalities that you don’t like or appreciate. Spend more time around the people you’re hoping to befriend.

Life is too short to stick to that job you so gloriously hate. It’s okay. You can quit it, you know. Women are trained for days that we can’t quit it. As if, a woman’s failures are a higher liabilty as compared to a man’s. They are demanded to perfect and on point. But you are allowed to make mistakes, as much as the next person. Be glorious in your failures. Enjoy them as they are the pathways to your success.

Wear that skinny jeans, loud and proud. Wear those crop tops and the shorts. We, as women, are taught all our lives to fit in a box and constraint ourselves to fit to the society’s standards of beauty. Learn to love the very skin you were born.

I know it’s hard. I have been there. The game changed when I learned to prioritise myself over everyone and everything.

You must love yourself enough to find the courage to give it what it needs. This is not said from a materialistic point of view. Wearing the clothes of your choice is an experince that you must have. Even if everyone thinks you look good in a bikini, and you don’t feel good in it, you’re not going to. You must generate thoughts of self worth within your own self.

Just do it. You’ve been waiting a long time to say what you needed to say and now’s the moment. Now is the time. You’re tired of thinking and you want to do. No one can talk you out of it. Generate that determination within yourself and send that bloody text. It’s better to be regretful than to be sorry, right.

Attack your fears. Expose yourself to it relentlessly. Starting at the very bottom rung of your fear ladder, repeatedly take that step until you begin to feel comfortable doing it. We live a better part of our lives surrendered to that one thing that scares us, right? You must begin facing them right now.

“I was totally unable to surrender and enjoy my beautiful surroundings and this was just making me even more stressed. Then I remembered how to start my day off right. Something easy, that takes away my internal struggle and replaces it with fun. It’s a little life-changing and delicious practice I call, ‘The Pleasure Ritual.’ So if you’re battling to let go of negativity in any form, and it’s stressing you out, yet you crave more ease and pleasure in life, this could be just the thing for you.”

-Layla Martin

Surely you give yourself five minutes of the day.

They might have hurt you at some point. I am not saying that’s okay. It’s about how much you grew since then. Do you trust people less or have you transformed into a compulsive lover yourself? There is so much damage that a breakup does to you. But you can truly choose to rise above the pain and become a better version of yourself. Go have that talk, girl.

Playing sports has a lot of health benefits associated with it. It reduces chances of getting breast cancer, helps in maintaining a healthy weight and assists in prevention of chronic diseases later in life – from heart disease and cancer, to osteoporosis and dementia. As little as four hours of exercise in a week can reduce a girl’s chances of getting breast cancer by 60 per cent. In addition to this, girls who play sports are less likely to smoke or do drugs. It also improves their mental health, reduces stress and helps fight depression. So, it’s a win-win I’d say.

“When you switch your focus from the ‘we’ to the ‘me’, the goal from ‘team’ to ‘self’, you upset the balance of the whole. Consequentially, that redistribution of effort impedes success.”

– Carlos Wallace,

Volunteering is both humbling and eye-opening, and you don’t need a buddy to do it. It’s a great way to show yourself that you have what it takes to make a difference.

Now this is a bit naughty, but, a funny experience nonetheless. Start a harmless rumour about someone you have really nice relations with (so, there’s chances of reconciliation). Let people get to know your fun side every once in a while.

Turn off your phone, computer, TV, and everything else so that you can simply be alone with your thoughts. In fact, this is something you should do regularly by yourself! This world will constantly be at your throat. Learn to unplug, and steal slices of this life for yourself too.

What do you want to with this beautiful, challenging, long life of yours, really? And what more can be done than with it which is more than simple waking up and going on with the mundane daily activities of yours? If you don’t plan your life, you will fall in the plans of others. And guess what they have in store for you, well not much.

Beauty exists all around you. Sometimes, it is in the faces of people you love, sometimes, it is in the words of people you’d like to know. Listen to a woman. Cry when she tells you about how she lost her child. A veteran who had lost both of his legs after serving two tours of combat abroad. There are multiple experiences, waiting to be heard. If you want to invest your time anywhere, invest in the stories of people you might never know.

Why not? The sex is especially great when the relationship was basically good but nonromantic reasons, such as different life plans, force the two to separate. Breakup sex involves the caring that remains despite the separation. The total lack of constraint is what makes breakup sex usually the more exciting of the two.

A woman is restricted all her life from persuing the things that she wants to. Be it living an extravagant life or having a normal and healthy sex life. Most of them even surrender to the whims and wishes of the society. What I have been trying to say is, you are allowed. You are allowed the lavishness and the extravagance that you so deerly fancy. Life is short, go buy that car.
