Once I turned 35, I got the bonus of some wisdom and began to accept life on its own terms.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Everyone talks about how, in your 30s, all of these growing pains transition into wisdom and you feel more self-assured and confident, but I think I had a bit of a jump-start on that at 27.
Once I turned 40, my whole life changed in the most mature - not boring way but much cooler way. I feel much more like an adult.
I lived my life one way for 35 years, for me. And then the focus came in on what I really was.
I feel blessed - I am a woman who has been able to work in the entertainment business for five decades. I don't want to age, but I would never take back a year for the wisdom I've gained in that time.
I feel like 35. At 35 you're old enough to know something and young enough to look forward to what you can do with the knowledge. So I stayed at 35!
When I turned 30, I realized how ignorant I really was. I always thought I had a very accomplished life.
There is a trade off - as you grow older you gain wisdom but you lose spontaneity.
I'm someone who's done the opposite of whatever the received wisdom is, to keep your career going into your 50s.
I don't want to put a pause on the rest of my life; I'm really enjoying getting older and the wisdom that comes from that.
I've lived the life of a 35-year-old since I was 18.
