It seems like people have an opinion about everything nowadays. Judging random strangers has always been a thing. But, social media has definitely made it worst.

Thankfully, as an adult, only you get to determine what success looks like.

  • Get married and have kids if and when you want.
  • Find a job that makes you happy, even if it’s not a “good job.”
  • Live whatever lifestyle makes you happy.

“In school, you are graded on every test — even if it’s your weakest subject.

In life, you can choose the tests you take — even if they always play to your strengths.

Maintain a baseline so your weak areas don’t hold you back, but design your life so you are graded on your strengths.”-James Clear
