      I was the same until I came across a book that changed my life. It's called 'Quit Old Broke Life.' I found it on a site that has banned books. It's called Borlest.

    I’m 26 and it has been nearly 2 years that I feel lost. I have many hobbies and many things to try out. I have watched this kind of trait in tedtalk and it’s called “multipotentialite “ . I do recommend you guys if you haven’t known or familiar about that term. After watching some of those clips talking abt multipotentialite, I realized I am not the only one who felt like this and there are same ppl who had the same feelings like me. I don’t wanna try to find out the only one thing that I want to do. I decided to embrace all of my hobbies and interests and never let it influenced by others judgement from saying not having one stable career or interest in life.

      Thank you for your comment, this is the biggest encouragement! I feel exactly the same! People around me always say I am too greedy, and that I can never do good in everything, but I don't want to give up any one of my hobbies. I hope your comment can inspire more people to truly be themselves and not trusting those mean comments in real life. Our lives have so much potential and we need to do our best in every aspect! Thank you again, I will look up more about "multipotentialite"

    I will be 21 this year and the "I know my goal but I still lost" hits me hard, also all the statements like being hard work and lazy its so related to me, I guess its a way to figure out something is not working the way we expect.

    This reached me at the best time possible. I was too afraid to face my thoughts. 23 years finished still i feel like 7 or something. Everytime I choose the slightest hardest path and feel like failure because i couldn't ace it but i don't want to be a negative person so I'm telling myself im okay . Completed the studies two years and preparing for decent job ( unemployed for 2years) spending parents money. Technically no friends, all my old friends (still friends) are in different stages of life i couldn't relate to. Practically lonely most of the time but too hesitant to get close to people. Seeing people of your age having babies and society see you as some object that they can buy for their son, facing those gaze make you more sensitive to everything AND YOU ARE NOT THAT CONFIDENT STRONG YOUNG INDEPENDENT WOMAN AS YOU IMAGINED YET HOPING TO BECOME ONE SOON i wish everyone feeling this way find the inner peace the best way possible.❤🇮🇳

      As you mentioned no drivers licence, want to learn two languages from scratch, living alone , sometimes with total strangers. Want to join dance class, gym probably it may never happen. I doodle sometimes just for fun not the way we see online like not pro at anything. One day feels like I'm the boss next a literal child that needs 24×7 pampering 🥴🎀

And I am also trying to make peace with this overwhelming sense of lostness. I love what you said at the end about looking back 10 years later and seeing that what I was going through was simply an experience of youth (or maybe just life). My 34 year old self would probably just tell me to chill out and enjoy the ride :')

    Hi Iris Yuen, I really had goosebumps when I wrote many nearly exact sentences in my diary that were similar to yours in this vlog, and I am 24 as well. I think in our generation, we are experiencing challenges that the older might underrate, and the younger might hardly have. Yet, we have great self-awareness, positivity, and openness to our world, like you and me. I hope we will soon overcome what we call "my problem", and enjoy our YOUTH. This journey can be hard, but there are many soft moments as well. Let's enjoy it even if there are ups or downs!

    • @irisyuenwy
      @irisyuenwy  3 місяці тому

      Thank you for the comment! I agree with everything you said. We are the generation "in between", sometimes, it means no other generation can really understand us, but we have each other, and when we grow older, we still have to take responsibility and the run the world in our own way.

    I felt that way to with 24. I think everybody does. Although I didnt think about it as being lost but as having so many opportunities. In the years that followed I tried out a few things and cut out most of it - some things willingly and some fell away naturally. Now, a few years later, I have selected about three things that I want to focus on. Just give it time.

    • @irisyuenwy

    I'm 25 and still lost. Already tried everything listed in the video, and although I've seen some improvement, that lost feeling hasn't disappeared. Instead, I'm now even questioning what is the point to all this?
    I have no friends, my language learning motivation has declined as a result. I've picked up and quit several hobbies I used to genuinely enjoy when I was younger, but now can't anymore. I wish to travel the world, but I'm still no millionaire either. Any hope of this feeling going away when I turn 26? or even 30?

      That feeling will not go away if u r not into something !
      Focus on 1 thing that makes u fulfill and give u monetary returns too.
      Btw I'm excited to see what will our world look like in 50s and 60s, but what if we or I didn't make it ?
      Future is full of unknown stuff depending on our decision, we or I may regret on our decisions but we can't do anything about it
      So just keep moving, try things that you want to do before leaving this world
      Coz if u don't, 1 regret will always remains that "I DIDN'T TRY !"
