The following 5 years will be amazing for you. You will learn a lot and experience a lot. Don't Worry or fear, You will sort out or learn how to sort out everything.

Your professional skills and career should be your top priority, while everything else will fall into place at the right time.

1. Start reading 2. Think about how to replace job with a online solo service 3. Build online network

01. Don't wait just start your podcast, opinions be damned! 02. Take a vacation in 2019, cause you're screwed in 2020 03. Cook more, it saves money

Don't overwork yourself... You'll not miss out on anything if you take it slower. Being burnt-out will hurt your process much more than pacing yourself.

If I could travel five years back, I would tell myself to take more risks and learn how to market. I would tell myself to not become a slave to the dollar bills, because if I did, I wouldn't be able to chase my dreams. I would tell myself to always be a doer, to go out and try new things instead of being stuck in a dead end job. I would tell myself to go after my dreams and make them a reality, because that's what life is about.

Stay calm, what you're getting mad about probably isn't worth the stress or blow-back. I would often get mad about things at our startup and it really wasn't worth it.

Think less. Do more. Don't be shy. Life is too short to not travel and explore more. Don't let your friends go

Nothing really as far as career goes. If I say anything, I will loose the good parts of the journey too. But, if I could meet my self when I was 20 I would advise them more on matters of love and family.

I'm 19 currently so 5 years ago Internet was just a beginning in my country.. so one thing i would definitely advice my younger self is stop following what everyone else are doing like gamjng, binge watching, literally doing everything nonsense and focus on what I should have actually done. Which is "START A SIDE HUSTLE :)"
Priyani Sharma Ahuja
To believe more in me....take more holidays.....n build a side hustle
Cem Özçelik
@priyani_sharma_ahuja i agree, specially more holidays 🤟
