How to Utilize Your 20's to Set You Up for Life

*THREAD*

1. Investing

Literally nobody expects you to have much when you're young

Use this to your advantage by minimizing your expenses and investing heavily

The earlier you start investing the better, as you have more time to let your investments compound

2. Business

Your 20's are the best time to try your hand at starting a side-business

You literally have nothing to lose if you choose a business model with low start up costs

A young person has tremendously more time than someone who's older and has a family or a demanding job

Additionally, you have the most energy when you're in your 20's

Successful people that have made it in life despise this - they would love to be in your shoes again

This will set you apart when it comes to advancing in your career or building a business

3. Personal Development

Realize that the world is designed to take advantage of you

Just look at all of the people who:

- Don't Exercise
- Watch Netflix
- Are Enslaved by Debt
- Work a Job They Hate
- Are Addicted to Video Games
- Eat Fast Food and Drink Alcohol

People who participate in these activities tend to be extremely addicted to dopamine and are very unhappy

Truly seek out to understand why these habits are detrimental to your life

Then you don't have to worry about falling prey to them

Then do the complete opposite of everyone else:

-Take Risks
- Read Books
- Stay Debt Free
- Develop a Growth Mindset
- Eat Clean and Start an Exercise Routine

Every couple of years you won't even recognize who you used to be because you'll be improving so drastically

Use these tips to set you up for life

Continually Experiment, Test, Refine, Learn, & Grow

The Journey never ends

And don't waste your 20's, because once it's gone - it's gone forever.
