I think it's quite normal. (at least I hope so because I always get these feelings) I absoultly hated turning 30. That for me was probably the hardest time I had with a birthday. Grant it at 30 I was a college Graduate working as a design engineer for GM. In most people's eyes I was doing quite well for myself. But to me I hadn't felt like I accomplished anything. I was already divorced from my first wife. I had no house of my own didn't drive a fancy new anything.. I felt at 30 I should've had things all set.

Today I went to my son's tennis match at my old high school. And I think man it's been 20 years since I fist stepped in there as a freshman. I can't beleive where all the time went. Seems like it was just yesterday I was roaming the halls trying to get to class on time. So even today I had thoughts of "Is this it? Am I where I'm supposed to be?"

I read somewhere that "you go through your 20's drifting away dreaming of doing something with your life, You spend your 30's making it a reality and then you start enjoying your life and accomplishment's in your 40's." God I hope that's right. I'm 34 right now. Walked away from a design engineer career to become a buisness owner. I've built and sold 2 companies so far (Local clothing line and a towing company) Now I'm working on my detailing career and trying to make this grow into a successful business. I still don't feel like I've accomplished much of what I'm supposed to but everyday I keep taking steps to make it all a reality.
