1. Binge drinking
Remember the times you had only heard of that silly thing called the 'hangover'?
In your 30s, you get to spend a good few hours or the whole day with it sometimes.
So binge drinking? Good if you like hangovers. Bad if you don't.
Got it?
Moving on...

2. Clubbing on a weeknight
This one -- and you would have figured it out -- is an extension of point number one.
So unless you like showing up to work the next morning looking like you've been run over by a truck, clubbing on a weeknight may not be such a good idea.

3. Avoiding the doctor
Most of us are medical marvels in our 20s.
You've probably visited your doctor no more than three times in your 20s...
In your 30s, avoid the doctor at your own peril.
Pulled a muscle? Or twisted your ankle? Get it seen to ASAP. You won't regret it.

5. Staying with your parents
Ok so we're as Indian as you and we don't always get this thing of living with your parents while you're in your 30s.
Still not convinced?
All right, think of all the things you can do if you're living by yourself.
Just think ;-)

6. Blowing up cash
Alright so you may not want to 'settle down' just yet.
But the truth is you aren't getting younger and money isn't always going to be for recreation.
There will be unforeseen situations... in your own life or in the lives of your parents... when you will be required to fork out cash at the drop of a hat.
We'd say, better be prepared than sorry.
Wouldn't you agree?

8. Dating idiots
While this applies to people of all age groups, it is perhaps truest for those of us in our 30s.
You should have ideally kissed all the frogs in your 20s to know the idiots from the genuine people.

9. Suddenly taking up heavy exercises
If you're smiling while reading this, you know you've tried this before.
Your metabolism slows down in your 30s and losing weight isn't as easy as it seems.
Your younger colleagues look prettier, sexier, handsomer as you begin losing hair and gaining weight.
So what do you do? Hit the gym and begin pumping iron on Day 1!
Bad, bad idea!
(But again, if you've done it, you probably know it already :-P)

10. Not travelling
You should have had some money saved up by now to travel beyond you neighbourhood weekend destination.
Few things widen your horizons like travelling.
You are also not too old to not backpack and rough it out.
So what are you waiting for? Explore a new country or travel to even a distant part of our own country.
Go forth! Travel! You won't regret it.
