There's a reason why the classic "midlife crisis" comes between 40-50. A lot of people reach this point halfway through their lives, often at the peak of their careers, and think "my time is limited… is this all there is?" As someone in this age range, I don't find it depressing, I find it clarifying. There are so many things I could say "yes" to, so many branches in my career I could chase. Reminding myself that my time is limited helps me to say "no" and maintain focus on the things that truly matter.
