People in/were in your 20s, what would/did you do?

Drop the western view of fun - Clubbing,partying,getting high/laid anyone can do. You don’t need any hard skills for it.

You have to change your perception of fun - I am a strong believer that 20s are for building your self.

Get Up Early - Explore your religion/spirituality - Work Hard - Don’t burn yourself out but ya the seeds you sow with hard work will pay on later in life.
Go Workout - Go for a Run- Go to the Gym it’s gonna help you live longer.

Eat healthy - Quit Smoking

Own Your life - Set Goals - Figure out your 2-5-10 Year Goals.

And When you have started this journey feel free to out with your friends create movie worthy stories and find the love of your life.

In early 20s now. I don’t have much to do differently but would’ve been less arrogant in my past. I was insanely arrogant and cocky and lost some connections coz of it.
Also 20s not for exploring didn’t climb corp ladder will never do that corp world is not for me.

20s is about exploring but that doesn’t mean you hurt your chances of success

In my case, I switched multiple company sizes (across early stage, large company, etc.) and domains (generalist, technical stuff)

It has never hurt me. It’s helped me figure out what I like and what I don’t like. I’m doing better than I would have otherwise.

From the words of the great Daniel Fernandez "growing up we're always told, college will be the best time of your life, you should make the most out of college. Bullshit! Wait till 30 and you have money, that shit is Dope! And if you're 30 and you dont have money, you should have made the most of college."

Chill out guys, I think at the end we all may end up living on Universal Basic Income 😂 No point in hustling unless you are hustling for disproportionate success.

Find a mentor/coach in your 20s. You don't need to make mistakes to learn from them. A mentor will help you navigate the uncertainty of 20s. I am in my 30s and am still looking for a mentor. I want to absolutely avoid repeatable mistakes.

20s is for heads down and make your own career. There are no shortcuts. Heads down and focus on work.

I'm in my early 20s right now. I was working in an analytics consulting firm, but I realised that I'm more into business roles and not into technical roles. I am currently looking for jobs in that domain. I still haven't landed a job. Although I'm scared I don't regret my decision to quit.

If you can try spending at least a couple of years in a non-English speaking European country as a student or a worker, please do it. I did this and it has completely changed me and for good.
