3 Things I'd Tell My 20-Something Self

[@mukashinoboro1466]

I am 34 now and I am so happy that during my 20s I went and try so many different things to figure myself out. I went through 20+ different jobs and different school programs. I was afraid many time, but I am so glad I did it anyways to find out who I am really are.

[@bruce.lee.]

BirdsCompass Nice 👍

[@icandancejuno]

I'm 22 I constantly watch videos on self improvement. And the one thing I've learned is that we always think we know until we look back, and we think we know now. Everyone should strive to constantly become a better person and everyone has an ego so if you don't keep that in check yull never change no matter your age. That's what drowns people my age at the moment the inability to find self awareness over social awareness. A step into the mind of a 22 year old.

StayEarthly find yourself stay out of relationships , Now isn't the time for commitment a thousand heartbreaks takes a toll and most fall so early because it's the first time we experience love but it's a scary thing no one admits

[@StarkPT1]

zeboogieburitto I think that's wrong you gotta gice a chance to love, I mean if not to feel loved and love others why would even be worried, People just need to realise that the end of a relationship means nothing in the long spectrum of life in my prespective, don't be afraid to love, and dont try to get things like make people yours, love's about admiration not possesion, sorry about some wrongs words as you see english is not my native language

No stress. The goal is not success, it's finding out who you are.

[@UdoADHD]

KaL Rynzler I agree. I am more ambitious than most of my classmates, but I wondered why are they happier than me? But when you are someone who dreams of MORE than the average, it is MORE DIFFICULT to figure out "who you are" with the same certainty as those who are less ambitious.

[@LauraGJones]

Great video, Jonathan! But I would add a consistent call to action. I think many 20-somethings spend their time having fun and doing things they enjoy rather than doing the hard work of taking action in different directions and constantly readjusting their focus. So I would adjust your "don't focus" idea to "strategically change your focus to discover the answer to these questions." Because many of us wait until "we know" to take action, but waiting won't tell you anything. Only by taking action will you discover what lessons can be learned from that experience.

don't get too spiritual. - I am also aware of something we humans can't understand but you shouldn't preach about it. 'ground' yourself a little more. - because otherwise your mind will develop too extreme into thinking 'guidance from the spiritual world' will solve everything for you (when time simply passes and you accomplish nothing) - because it's a mix. Let's try to express it in your words: Go with the flow from your Guides a.k.a. Angels - stay lucky - BUT DONT DEPEND ON IT.

I"m in my 40's and have suffered from c-ptsd all my life and haven't achieved much. I would say do more things don't fear as much relax have fun, love myself and have more tenacity and spontaneous like you were when you were 11. Travel more. Don't go to Uni but go to night classes and do many different kinds of classes explore who you are. Don't fear rejection. Be kind to yourself you have had 20 years of trauma you deserve to love yourself and be loved. Search for the right therapist take your time to find one that actually helps you one more creative and nice and guide you to heal. Be more of a Yes Man! Do things you enjoy. Go into Nature more :-)

[@jmw9788]

I'm 20. Last year I was studying Marketing and loved it but had to drop out because of how much I struggled with the Maths side to it. Then I changed to English Literature but had to drop out because of an eyesight problem where I constantly see shadows- I now have to decide whether to have life changing surgery which could potentially make me go blind or could cure the shadows I see which are so frustrating that I don't want to go outside. It's so hard because I look around and see healthy people who aren't shit at Maths- if I was to have two wishes it would to have healthy eyesight and be decent at maths. A month ago today I was in a doctors surgery asking for a doctor as I was suicidal, that day I was on my phone looking at ways to kill myself, telling my family over the phone that I didn't want to live anymore. Now I'm sat at home, depressed wondering what the fuck is gunna happen with my life. My Dad is a successful lawyer, my older brother has graduated and is in a good job and my younger brother is about to go to University. I feel like such a failure and don't want to be 'that guy''. I'm scared I'm going to have complications from surgery, then will be stuck at home with no job and be your classic son who still hasn't moved out.

[@LL949]

I disagree with this man, because I also focused on exploring my options to find myself... but the thing is, I had already developed some really good talents in high-school and before that, so continuing in those would have made more sense... in retrospect. Not being focused only costs a whole bunch of time and money, but only my parents warned me of this. Everybody else gave the same hippie advice, and it got me absolutely nowhere!!! So here's 3 things I'd tell my 20-something self: 1. A as a young and impressionable mind; beware of so called guru's/mentors and friends... only your parents give a shit about you, so only listen to them! 2. Above anything else, focus on making money and avoid debts at all costs! All those parties are a hollow shell... 3. Don't force anything; if it's for you it will flow... and sometimes it will flow after you let it rest and ponder the proper approach for a while... but stay focused on the things you're good at!

[@davidreynolds4942]

LL949 very traditional way of looking at it

[@Evad-zl2xu]

LL949 I think he means you shouldn't wait until you're 20 to start asking questioning about who you are. You're not to young at 18 and not 19 or even 17 to start questioning world.

[@eliaslara4803]

1.Mentors should be someone that are 10+ years ahead of who/what you want to be/accomplish. They'll give you insight into what they know,there's a reason that most of the top billionaires and even millionaires have mentors. And in fact, you should actually avoid listening to your parents advice on money or career unless they're highly successful in what it is that they do but if they're just average or even poor,why would you take their advice? they don't know anything about being successful,they're apart of the masses and if you listen/do what the masses do,you will become like them. Your parents aren't trying to give you bad advice,it's just that they don't know what they don't know. The best and most convincing lie is a lie you tell yourself first. 2.Why chase the money? Again,don't be like the masses. If you don't want to be like the masses,then avoid doing what they do. Examples: Go to a fast food place every week.Watch TV like 24/7. Netflix all day.Etc etc etc but the #1 is,"focus on making money". While money is good,it should not be what you go after. I don't want to write paragraph after paragraph on this but just do what success ppl do/have done. Don't be like the masses

[@LL949]

No Justin, it's just until you are completely financially and emotionally independent should you be careful with who you allow to influence you...

OK to summerize: Rather then focusing on only one particular thing to devote mastering and succeeding at - don't focus! Instead, do a number of different things that most interest you and run a series of experiments specifically to figure out these three questions about yourself: 1) Who am I? 2) What is important to me? 3) What am I good at, or what can I be good at?

I could go on to study any of these and I'd be happy , but excluding one would probably make me feel like I'm not doing what so want.I constantly flit between wanting to be an architect and wanting to be a slt. And I am no where NEAR choosing . I suppose because what I am interested in is EVERYTHING. Learning for learning sake. I'm 25 next year and I definitely feel a big pressure. One thing I will say is that I have a lot of ambition but extremely inconfident academically speaking , even though so have many academic interests.

Rico, You're asking precisely the right question. In my experience, securing a career that you may have been trained in to take care of those concerns usually ties you over so you don't feel like you're flying by the seat of your pants. After you have put in some time- you'll know when that is, then you can divide your time and start the creative data-gathering process once you have that peace of mind. Does that make sense?

[@reelala4114]

[@itshamiiid]

what a great advice man. Im taking note of this

[@MaliekCombs]

I love This! motivation to figure out what I want in life and who I want to be in the future!! thank you!

[@hariraam4290]

Great advice but i have a question. I totally agree that we have to spend the early years of our lives to explore ourselves and find experiences in order to see how those experiences can teach us more about ourselves. However, I imagine seeking varied experiences would require a person to go from job to job. My question is, is there a risk of future potential employers seeing yourself as a job hopper and would not want to employ due to your track record of constantly changing jobs and not being able to stay put at one company and focus on your career? Would they be hesitant to employ a person who seems to only want to experiment and will they be wary that their company would just be another "experiment" for this candidate which is not what they want as they want to invest in an employee who will serve them for the long term? I myself am interested in experimenting, but how do I get around this issue when I approach a job in order to try it out?

[@renualluzara8516]

[@arikasharon4843]

Passion is a result of action, not vice versa imo. Try things only then u will get what ur 'passion' is. Most people never try different things and then say they have no passions. I mean how wud u know unless u try first..?.

[@hhattonaom9729]

I am 24 and already would have told my teenage self so many things

[@shawngord8813]

im good at art and especially piano, my mom encourages me to go to school and get a plumbing job which yields great income,but will i even like plumbing? money wont make me happy, so i really think i should focus on art and piano or at least one of the two and just practice and study. My mom just pushes any other idea away that i have for a potential job and actually almost breaks my dreams saying i cant live off art income alone, and its really hard when she tells me this and i think maybe shes right. but i think deep down if i had to live the rest of my life i wouldn't enjoy plumbing. i want to take action now, im young. 20 years old so i have some room for failure. i still live at home with cheap rent so i could easily get back on my feet.

[@xinwilson]

Depends on how good you are at art or piano. Have you entered any competition or asked for critics from professional artists? Unless you are confident you can live off art income alone, I think it's a good idea to learn plumbing, and do art on the side. Because once you learn plumbing, no one can deny you have the skills to plumb. But you know it's not necessarily the case in the art world. Plus when you pay for your own living, you get to spend all the spare time and money on pursuing your dream. Hope it helps

[@shawngord8813]

Xin Xu that's true, so I should get plumbing first then focus on my art? I'm better at art then most people but I'm not some pro either let alone great

[@xinwilson]

You can do both at the same time. Maybe spend 8 hours plumbing and 2-3 hours evening time on art. And try to get an idea how you would go about the art career. If your art is getting good feedback, consider going full time on that; if not, you still get to enjoy it as a hobby. No need to feel like you are giving up on art for plumbing :)

[@shawngord8813]

my friend who is in school for music is saying i should just jump in to music and if i fail i can always go and take plumbing, im not sure what i wanna do but im going to think about it, thanks though! :D

[@descai10]

Just a suggestion, if you like piano and art, you could get into creating digital art and create art for developers or creators. Same for music and piano, digital is the way to go these days.

[@adrianacosta4481]

Definitely a must sub.

[@elycia5823]

Thanks for the great video.

[@Kimrules502]

I just turned 23...I’m scared :/ I got a degree in performance and sign language and I don’t feel called to it anymore. I feel slightly confused right now because I feel called to go into ministry which is Christian Churches (nondenominational) but I’m just worried always. I know I have to be logical and give it up to God. I’m worried I don’t know how to keep a job and fight the battle of life but I know I already really fought that battle and won over myself. My parents think I’m a failure even though I just graduated. Because I don’t have a steady job since six months after graduation I’ve been a problem. I worked at a coffee shop for four months during this six months but then couldn’t keep up with it. I don’t wanna be another desk job just trying to make money. I just wanna do something fulfilling that will support me with food and shelter and a nice life while also being sacrificial. I don’t know if that’s all possible. I’m figuring out I don’t really think it is and so now I’m just sad and between a rock and a hard place. I’ll just choose God and trust Him and His path into ministry even if I wind up in a box oh well. I would rather believe in Jesus than what the world has it’s just gonna be a hard road. I feel ancient like I’ve been roaming this earth way too long. I miss Him. I don’t like earth. I love people because He calls me to but this is just so hard and scary. I’m tired. I don’t meet my parents expectations, or my friends. I only should care about God’s expectations but I just start crying. I wanna be good and help others. I wanna be the difference. I don’t wanna fall into laziness and fail people. I come from so much abuse and hurt and it’s hard to escape some of the reality that I feel lonely at times. I’m not alone. But the devil likes to whisper that to me. Maybe it’ll help to live with believers in one house. 🙏❤️😢 someone pray His will be done on my life PLEASE. I’m weary my heart is broken. Pray I’m able to care more and help others above myself.

[@ItsmeNJ]

Never feel bad about yourself. there is time for everything, and the job you would like to be engaged to will be yours if you tried harder and expand your relationships. I'm a fresh graduate, worried sometimes because I am looking for a job as well. but I try my best to keep myself busy and engage with the community to not feel bad about myself. and regarding your job experience, you have to be proud of it since you went through a new experience like this. I'm sure it taught you a lot of things and added some new aspects to your personality. Personally I never had a job but I waiting and have no problems with that, I have no idea what tomorrow will brings to me. so please trust God and do your best to do what makes you happy. and never think of what others will think about you. it's okay to change a job one time, two times three million, till you find the best one that suits you. And remember that in order to meet people expectations you have to meet your own expectations first. Be safe.

[@ItsmeNJ]

I have no idea why I want to be a friend of you! :D
