20 Things Every Girl Should Do in Her Lifetime
Life is not just about ticking off societal checkboxes—it's about discovering who you are, growing into your power, and living on your own terms. As girls and women, we often face expectations from every direction, but what about the things we truly need for ourselves?
Here’s a list of 20 powerful, soulful, and fun things every girl should experience in her lifetime—because you deserve to feel empowered, joyful, and free.
๐ช For Inner Strength & Confidence
1. Learn to say no without guilt.
You are not here to please everyone. Saying no is not rude—it's self-respect.
2. Stand up for yourself.
Speak your truth, whether it's in a relationship, workplace, or among friends. Your voice matters.
3. Set strong boundaries.
Not everyone deserves access to your time, energy, or emotions. Protect your peace unapologetically.
4. Learn self-defense or take a martial arts class.
There’s something deeply empowering about knowing you can protect yourself—physically and mentally.
5. Travel solo at least once.
There’s a special kind of magic in navigating the world on your own. It builds self-trust and reveals parts of you that group travel never will.
๐ง For Knowledge & Growth
6. Read powerful books by women and about women’s journeys.
From Maya Angelou to Michelle Obama, there’s wisdom in their words that can reshape your perspective.
7. Learn about personal finance.
Saving, budgeting, and investing aren’t just for financial experts. Mastering your money is a form of self-love.
8. Explore your passions.
Write poetry, learn to code, start a YouTube channel, dance like nobody’s watching—follow what makes your soul light up.
9. Take up a leadership role.
Whether it’s heading a project at school or starting your own business, don’t shy away from responsibility. You were born to lead.
10. Ask questions boldly.
Curiosity is a superpower. Don’t shrink yourself to make others comfortable—your voice is valuable.
๐ง♀️ For Self-Love & Peace
11. Practice self-love rituals.
Journaling, skincare, meditation, long walks—do what grounds you. Make yourself a daily priority.
12. Let go of perfectionism.
You don’t have to be flawless to be fabulous. Your flaws make you real, relatable, and radiant.
13. Forgive yourself for past mistakes.
We all mess up. What matters is how we grow from it. Be gentle with yourself.
14. Spend time alone without distractions.
No phone. No noise. Just you and your thoughts. It may feel uncomfortable at first—but it's in those quiet moments that you meet your true self.
15. Celebrate your wins—big or small.
Finished a tough workout? Nailed a presentation? Got out of bed when it felt hard? Celebrate that!
๐ For Exploring the World & Giving Back
16. Travel to a new place every year.
It doesn’t have to be international—exploring your own country can be just as eye-opening. Change your scenery, change your mindset.
17. Volunteer for a cause close to your heart.
Whether it's working with animals, the elderly, or underprivileged children—giving back adds meaning to your life.
18. Make a new friend from a different culture or country.
Diversity is beautiful. These friendships can change how you see the world.
19. Live on your own—even for a short while.
There’s something so powerful about running your own life, even if it’s just for a few months. You learn self-reliance and confidence like never before.
๐ For Fun & Living Fully
20. Do something wild.
Dance in the rain. Get that tattoo. Sing your heart out at karaoke night. Take that spontaneous road trip. Break the routine. Break the rules. Just… live.
