The superlative

With the benefit of hindsight, now, what is the best advice for a 20 year old?

To-infinitive

The best advice for a 20 year old is to realize that your 20s do suck.

Present continuous

You're hanging out with people that aren't the best versions of themselves.

You're going to bars and hanging out with people, having a few too many drinks, and

then going to a job you kind of hate because you're brand new into the workforce.

And so of course you're doing the worst thing humanly possible.

And that's going to continue for like five to ten years.

You are going to do a $65,000 a year job for two or three years.

And you're gonna have no time for anything except what your boss asks of you.

And I wish people had told me that, because if you see the light at the end of the tunnel, you're like, oh, okay.

Like, I can do this for two or three years.

I can learn, I can grow, and I can suck it up for two to three years.

And then after that I get a little bit better and a little bit better and a little bit better.

And so the advice would be, when you have a foot in your nail, which is what it's like when you start your first job being 20, try to ignore the fact that it's painful.

And I wish somebody had told me that because these days everybody's like, oh, you can be a 20 year old and drive a Bugatti and, you know, I don't know, play around with crypto.

And once I learned, like, okay, this sucks and I can deal with it, then the next thing would be, everybody focuses on how much money you make when you're in your 20s.

The only thing you should focus on is learning how can I think about my salary?

Like putting pieces of cash into my brain.

How can I come and work an apprentice for somebody that I think I might want their life?

One day I'll take the minimum amount of cash that I need in order to fill my brain so that my next step can be to make more money.

But in the beginning, too many people obsess on money.

I'd rather learn than earn when I'm young.

Do you think there's a different amount of work and work ethic required in different Seasons of life.

So in your 20s, should you be working harder than when you're 6, 30, 40, 50, 100%?

I mean, I was weightlifting the other day and I was showing my less strong friend next to me, like this is how you do a deadlift.

I put another plate on there and you know, blew up my hip, you know, and

I'm like, now I'm in like back pain and you know, I'm 37.

I do not have the same stamina I had when I was 25.

And I think your work ethic declines too.

It's really hard to keep going for 20 years at 12 hour long days.

You can do it, but it's much easier when you're 20.

You know, my husband is former Navy Seal and we always talk about, I think the only reason we're kind of successful is we just said what are the worst jobs we can take when we're young, where we can learn the most.

We can hopefully have something that's a resume builder.

And then once we're in our mid-20s to late 20s, we can start reaping the fruits of our labor.

You do all the worst things when you're young, but

then for the rest of your life, you're a fucking former Navy seal.

You're set because he front loaded the pain.

So it's again, it kind of goes back to this idea.

If you want to win and be successful in life, upfront pain always leads to long term gain and people do not want to hurt up front, so they hurt for the rest of their life.
