COGNITIVE CHANGES and TRANSITIONS
in EARLY ADULTHOOD

Everyone goes through transitions in their lives. Often we view change as bad or even a little scary. Changes can be fun though!

Can you imagine what life would be like if no one changed from the time they were born until the time they died? Life would be very boring!

The changes that occur from adolescence to young adulthood may be stressful at times, but between the ages of 19 and 30 we are at our prime physically, and our cognitive skills are becoming finalized. Sure, sometimes it seems like we're dealing with a million things all at once, and that one of any number of things could change the rest of our lives, but that's the best part about it! Young adulthood is when (most of us) decide exactly what it is that we want to do with the rest of our lives whether it's raise a family, start a career, or both.
