This isn’t a numbered list.
This isn’t even an anecdotal story.
I’m going to say it.
You already know the answer (I know you do).
Because deep deep deep down, you know it’s too good to be true.
The shortcut you’re looking for, you don’t actually want it.
You know the journey is meant to be enjoyed.
You know it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
What catches your attention shouldn’t be, “Life lessons from someone who has it all figured out at 25”.
Instead it should be, “Still figuring it out at 25” or “I’m 87 years old. Here’s what I went through in my 20’s”.
Sincerely,
Someone who hasn’t figured it all out at 25.
