Is there a 'perfect' way to live your 20s?

Do you want to lock in until you've basically reached escape velocity with success and/or financial freedom? Or go focused on work with a little bit of time off to enjoy drinking and maybe a goal to have some fun in your youth?

If you're 19, I don't think that locking in super aggressively is where you need to be. I think that having some fun is perfectly acceptable.

Up to about the age of 24, 25, you're probably not going to see much divergence between you and your friends based on how much you've locked in, but you will look back and have a big difference on how much fun you had.

I think that you can really grind it 26, 27 through mid-30s. That is a great period. You've got past the issues of low respect because you're young so the world's not really going to listen to you as much as it will do when you're a little bit older.

But there needs to be a period of real monk moding in my experience. I don't think you can always semi-pro it. There's a period where you need to go pro.

@dashacovera How to combat waste disposal?

You read one good book, and suddenly can’t find any other thing worthwhile to read.

@dashacovera Are you rage baiting or you are really curious?

[JB @ofishaljbee]

@landry_realnigg Financial stability is a relative concept, you have to define what it means for you.

[JB @ofishaljbee]

This is what I have noticed with smart people who are oriented towards the wrong things.

How your intellect can lead you astray.

Contrary to a view held by most, there is no relationship between intellectual prowess and morality.
Most assume intelligent people will make good decisions because they are smart, but not necessarily.

Better way to lie, to steal, to cheat, and commit crimes. But the problem is, you don't get away with anything. But one thing is sure, it will catchup.If you twist the fabric of reality, expect it to snap back at you.

[JB @ofishaljbee]

Being smart is about being able to grasp things faster and recognize patterns better than most.
So if you are guided by the wrong things, you just find ways to get away with them. You are not one snake, you are 10. You find better and sophisticated ways to do these vices.

Addiction is proof of how extreme and consistent you can be, you're just serving the wrong God.

What are we afraid of losing when nothing belongs to us in the first place?

There are no social obligations
Only social consequences.

Loving your country should never be synonymous with loving your government.

Au Cameroun désormais, on l'impression que toutes les réformes et autres nominations fuitent à l'avance dans les médias et les réseaux sociaux. Il y a même désormais de vrais "lanceurs de fuites". Mais au juste pourquoi les changements à l'AN et au Sénat n'ont pas fuité...?

If it’s not an absolute yes, then it should be a no!

If you don’t commit to meaningful work, life will fill your time with busywork.
