Thirty is a weird age. And growing up, you may have envisioned where you’d be in life by the time you hit the big three-oh. Maybe you thought you’d be married or have started a family by age 30. Or perhaps you thought you’d own real estate or be farther along in your career.

The good thing is that there aren't any official benchmarks you have to meet to turn 30. Your strict and nosy family members may have told you otherwise, but they are wrong. The Earth keeps spinning on its axis. Time keeps passing. And yes, you are literally older now than when you started reading this article.

You will hear a lot of advice about where you should and shouldn't be in life by age 30. None of it is factual. Some of it may be helpful, but all of it is based on someone's opinion. Don't feel pressured to hold yourself to someone else's standards.
