Looking for the honest truths to help you figure out what's important? Maybe you reached a certain age and suddenly realized your life isn't exactly where you want it to be.

Here are seven brutally honest truths you need to hear if you want to get your life together:

2. You Can't Avoid Taking Risks
Even if you're not a natural born risk-taker, that doesn't mean you should become complacent. You'll never get where you want to go in life if you avoid taking chances. Stop telling yourself that your job or your relationship or you life is "good enough." Instead, take the risks needed in order to make it great!3. You're Going To Regret How Much Time You Spend On Social Media
Many people are addicted to social media. If you're spending hours on social media each day, you're missing out on what's truly important. Simply put, you're wasting your time. If you want to get your life together, put down your phone and start paying attention to the world around you. Travel, explore, try new things and find your passion.
4. You Should Always Have Enough Money For What Matters
Money doesn't buy happiness, but part of having your life together is being able to budget your money. Regardless of how much you make, you should always have enough money for what's important. If you don't, sit down and create a budget to finally take control of your finances. It's time to stop spending money on material items that don't matter.5. Other People Don't Think About You
Constantly worrying about what other people think of you will steal your joy. It will bring you down and stop you from creating a life that you love. Most people are way too concerned with their own lives to care about you, so stop worrying about whether or not others like you. Work on embracing who you are and finding your inner peace to create a life you're proud of.
