14 ➡️ 24 ➡️ 29
The last 5 years have flown by. I still feel like I’m 24, just with a few more aches and pains from gym injuries 😅
As I approach my 30s, I’ve become way more focused on building my business. Work has gone from being just a job to a passion - and often an addiction my wife has to drag me away from!
A lot of us can feel like we haven’t achieved enough, or maybe we look at others our age and think they’re further along.
For some years, I felt this way. My friends had careers and had savings and investments, whereas all of my savings had been invested into my business and I wasn’t seeing a profit. I did wonder if it had been better for me to get a job and save myself the stress and sleepless nights.
However, my perspective has shifted. The skills and experience you gain from running a business (or even your first job) are worth more than the money you make.
In the long run, investing in yourself is the most valuable thing you can do because at the end of it all, the only thing your really ever always have is yourself and the confidence you have in your abilities.
What you do with those skills and abilities, that’s what will define your success.
Let’s hope I’m in a position to prove these words right when I post again in 5 years… and maybe with fewer gym injuries this time 😆.
