    I just found this video. I'm 32 now, but found your wisdom pretty spot on. I guess in the end what matters most is to do what makes you happy. Chasing goals, being like the river (steady, disciplined), enjoying the present but reflecting on the past to learn and build a better future...Thanks for the inspiration, I really like the way you think.

    I'm in my mid 30's now, wasted my 20's on drinking, and girls, that, uh, you wouldn't take home to mom. Still kept a fulltime job etc, but basically made no progress in life for that 10 year period. Doing well now, but to do it over again I'd buckle down and be serious, I'd be 10 years ahead of where I am now.

      @@ShervinShares As someone who turned 30 this year, I really appreciate this advice. I think habits are important, and I feel I turn to alcohol because I finished my Computer Science degree 5 years ago, and still can't get a job in the industry, depsite living in SF. You feel like a failure, when you know what your capable of, and watch kids out of high school getting software engineering jobs at google and other big tech companies while you struggle. It's hard to stay focused through that mindset, but discipline is everything. UA-cam is a distractant. I should be gaining new skills to make myself marketable, and instead, I'm stuck in pointless politics every morning. It's hard to break those habits, but I know I have to find a way. Thank you for show us a better path.

      ​@@ShervinShares Never sweat the little stuff. In the end, 99% of the stuff you stress is little stuff. If something happens that is going to still affect you a year from now then you have reason give it your time. . Otherwise... it's "little stuff". It will soon pass and be forgotten. NEVER stress over the little stuff. When you make mistakes it's because you are taking risks which is a sign of growth. Show me someone who has never failed and I will show you someone who has never done nor accomplished anything. Enjoy the journey. I worked all my life to be a financial success but I realize after all those years it was the journey to get there and the people I met along the way that I value most. Today is the 1st day in the rest of your life. Make it count for something.

      @ShervinShares  2 роки тому +3

      that's a great question! honestly it was HARD...
      1. Create physical distance between them - move across the city or to a new city/state
      2. have a pre-written answer that says no to their requests, then over time they'll invite you less often
      3. schedule other things you want to do so you're less likely to be able to spend time with them
      slow process ;)

    My background: I have a BS in Software Engineering, an MBA, and have started a couple companies.
    If I go back for a j-o-b, how would I know if I am a good fit for IC role, Product Manager role, or Engineering manager role?
    i.e. The people you saw who enjoyed and succeeded in the roles you had, how could you tell it was "the role" for them?
