That's not too uncommon. There are some norms and mores in society that establish these along with cleaner stereotypical generalizations that people make about how to go about life. I have a ton of ideas of what my age should constitute now based on those but I don't want them to inhibit what actually works for me as an individual. In some instances it's better to put yourself first over social norms if that's what makes you happy with the realization that life is finite. I should at least have enough courage to be able to do what it is I want most of the time without undue regard to what others think is right for my age. I think this idea of having made it or having attained success by x age is mainly delusional as well. Really it's a process and occasionally you get to "make it" but most of the time you're chasing the carrot regardless of age and that's not a bad thing because it's part of the journey which constitutes the majority of existence. I have been trying to enjoy chasing the carrot rather than focusing on the overarching goals (or destinations) and not letting where the carrot leads me be dictated by others based on my age too much if that makes sense. --- ...
