💰If I could tell my younger self one thing…

Hi there,

This year, I turned 27, and it made me slow down for a minute.
The last few years have moved fast, and I learned a lot the hard way.

If you’re in your 20s, 30s, 40s, or beyond, these lessons still hit home.

Here are the biggest ones so far:

“Normal” is overrated.
Most people are unhealthy, in debt, anxious, and lonely. Choose a different path.
Habits compound.
If you can’t save $50 when you make $500, you won’t save $500 when you make $5,000. Discipline scales.
Small wins matter.
Consistent progress beats rare breakthroughs every time.
Staying calm is a superpower.
React less. Take fewer things personally. Become hard to offend. Life gets lighter.
Gratitude multiplies what you have.
When you focus on what you lack, you lose sight of what’s already in front of you.
Shifting my mindset here helped me become a millionaire in my 20s.
Trust people.
Assume positive intent. Living the other way robs you of peace.
Self-respect is earned.
You only feel good about yourself when you keep the promises you make. Especially the ones no one else sees.
You will always want more.
Hitting goals feels good for a moment, then you want more. That’s hedonic adaptation. Fall in love with the process, not the finish line.

I’m still learning. Still getting better. These are the lessons I’d pass to anyone who wants to grow without losing themselves in the process.
