It was 2 months before my 25th birthday. Everything in my life seemed upside down. My business was no longer exciting me, working out seemed mundane, and hanging out with friends felt like a chore. I started asking myself, do I really have the success that I thought I would have? Am I actually creating an impact on the world? Am I happy? What’s the point of all this anyway? I had found myself in a quarter-life crisis, or as The Muse puts it, “a period of intense soul-searching and stress is occurring in your mid-20s to early 30s,” typically because you feel you’re not achieving your full potential or are falling behind.

According to The Guardian, the quarter-life crisis affects 86% of millennial, who report being bogged down by insecurities, disappointments,

 loneliness, and depression. Millennial, it’s less of a question of if you will experience a quarter-life crisis than it is a question of when. Fortunately, the quarter-life crisis doesn’t have to be something to fear. One young person shows us that it can actually be the thing you need to experience to take your life to the next level. Meet Robert MacNaughton, the cofounder and CEO of the Integral Center in Boulder, CO, an organization that is at cutting edge of personal and relational development. Through MacNaughton’s work he has helped tens of thousands create a massive impact in their lives and relationships. However, this would never have been possible for MacNaughton if he hadn’t rerouted his life at the crucible of a quarter-life crisis.
