    Outside of the obvious, I would have to say I'd tell my younger self to buy toilet paper company stock prior to 2020

    Dear 2019 self, go build tools for remote work. And make a comfortable workspace at home, because that 2 weeks of remote work is more like 2ish years...

    I would 100% tell myself to invest more in friendships and to be intentional about keeping up with people. I would also tell myself that things like my SAT score, and my GPA are far less important in my professional life than I could ever have imagined.

    @deeblekpantha If only I understood how little grads and test scores would matter. No one cares a hot minute after graduating.

    Hey! Cool question:) I would advise myself to study programming and entrepreneurship since high school and university. And also that it is better to work with your brain than with your hands. I worked as a cook in restaurants for five years and only after that went into IT:))

    I mean outside of the "buy this stock" it's focus on a very very specific problem that a few people would love if it's solved.
    Aaron O'Leary
    @between_team Any ideas on what that problem would be? 🧐

    The app and service we're working on is for stock/futures/forex/crypto traders and we have a big (16,000 members) Discord community where the action is at. I've noticed when we startedthe influx of new traders being so younf- ages as low as 13. I would give my 13-14 year old self the advice to put down the gaming controller and start studying the markets and how to trade. These kids are becoming successful, and could be millionaires by the time they graduate high school of they hone their craft or find a solid stock, commodity, or crypto to invest in early enough.

    I would tell my younger work self to be ok with my own boundaries and it's not rude to enforce them

    Dear me young, put your happiness first:) Spot putting so much focus on how your actions are making others feel, and worry more about yourself. 😇
    Aaron O'Leary
    @leyla_aliyeva1 Yes love this! Think a lot of people including myself would do this

    You can handle more than you can imagine. No matter how much it feels like it in the moment, trust me, it's not the end of you.

    Learn languages via travelling and studying in the different countries. The conclusion is to learn people and culture to get benefits all life long.

    I would tell my younger self what he needs to know. When people need information. Regarding where for sure, why, how to. And who to contact so you can do it. Where you can be kinder to yourself. Find out where there is virtually no competition and begin your journey. Being found with help of people googling on the world wide web.

    Hi Young me, Take some risks and start-up. Why are you in your comfort zone? 'Work and beer' over and over without any aim is killing you. Do this 30 years later may be. Actually, not even then. Never do it.
