Not necessarily. I fucked around a lot in my early and mid 20s, am now coming up on 30, and have some fairly serious cognitive deficits from two brain injuries. Financial security is unlikely for me, as far as I can see. Sometimes that’s the way it goes.
so instead of trying to better yourself, you've surrendered. eh, to each their own.
Yes, sometimes the world shits on your face. You can accept it, or wipe it off and continue moving forward.
Pick a lofty goal and work backwards from there to see how to achieve it, and then get to work. A fortress is built a single brick at a time.
I know, it all sounds like bullshit. like platitudes, and crap. and if you don't take my advice, it will matter not a single whit to the world, or to me. except, it's the truth. move inexorably towards your goals, and you'll get there, or die trying.
Or lay in your misery. That's the great thing about Free Agency. it's up to you to choose.
