I'm 23 and have depression and anxiety. I have no purpose in life and can't find a job. I left my house and have to move into my parent to a new city which is London. I literally don't know what to do with my life and every morning I wake up I'm literally disappointed to face reality.
I’m 24 years old, college degree im not using. No money, no job. Just wanting to follow my dreams of being a content creator for UA-cam! Times are tough. Tons of missed payments for my car, and bills… life is very hard. I hope to look back on this post months or years from now maybe I can say I finally did it… 🙏🏾
Idk I am 22 yo and I feel like I whole day scaried and worried I feel myself paranoic and that others will hurt me even my parents though its can be true since people overall animals just with beautiful face they want to gain your trust and then in right moment they will betray you hurt you so yeah hard to live in this world
Apart from feeling lost, I think what hurts me most is feeling so damn alone. I don't have anyone, I feel like no one really knows me, I have no real friends and never felt more disconnected from my blood family. I just want to find my real family :(
i'm turning 24 a week from now. i just feel so tired living in this cycle. i can't seem to get out . i have no stable job, still living with parents, haven't been in a relationship and still socially awkward. man, i wish i can turn back time and figure out what the hell went wrong with me.
How are you holding up now? Any updates? I’m 20 years old.. graduated almost 2 years ago and I’m still here with no clue on what to do with my life. I don’t want to go to college because I have no idea what I want to major in and it’s just a confusing time for me. I’m horrible at money management and still living with my parents. I’m gonna try improving myself but I’m the meantime it’s just about figuring stuff out.
I’m 22 and I’m scared, I still mentally feel 17. Im not ready to be an adult I don’t even know how to converse with people without being awkward I hate everything please help me omg
Same here, I cannot talk to someone without getting awkward, funny thing is I work in customer service and I do good, when it comes to speaking in public I’m the worst, I’m 18 and honestly idk what the heck I’m doing, I dropped out of college due to the pandemic, wanted to go back but there’s a lot of money I’m falling behind, I did know like the classes I was getting anyway :(
Im 21 and Im scared to, I dont know what my life will be in 10 years but i just think that everything will just kind of get together if im willing to it and have a good atitude
Guys self perception is the key to the problem. You dont know who you are because of that mindset. Do other habits that can lift you up, change your posture, change your physical look, interact with people little by little (like asking for the time or other simple questions) and slowly become that. You will see different reaction from others by that little changes but most importantly BECOME THAT AND BELIVE THAT!! Bless y'all.
@Crimson Ghost i kinda have the same feelings. Im 21 and in my second year in college but i want to start over and change my major. I want to immigrate too. But i am not sure what will happen. Iam scared i will waste my parents money. These thoughts are killing me.
You dont need a girlfriend or wife, all you need is to improve yourself, improve what you can provide for society. As a man, you cant rely on your beautiful face and body like a woman to get what you want. It may look like a disadvantage, but it isnt. Knowing how to live life for yourself and provide for yourself is the best thing that could happen to you. Attractive females dont need to improve or learn new things because theyre pretty and they could just rely on their looks to trap a man who can give them everything they want. As a man, you are perceived as expendable, you are worthless unless you are useful. As a man, your value is measured by what you can provide for other people, be it going to war or knowing how a car works or knowing how to handle a situation. If you were female, you wouldnt need to know anything, just look pretty and be agreeable, but as a man, you need to learn something, anything, a trade you are passionate about, something that helps your fellow man. If you want to be successful, you need to figure out what people want and you need to provide that service to them in exchange for money. If you research how all these successful men acquired their success, its very simple. They figured out what people want and they gave them what they wanted. Bill Gates gave people a software that is easy to work with, Steve Jobs gave people a phone they want to use, Jeff Bezos gave people an easier way to access what they want to buy. To be successful, identify what the majority wants and give it to them, in return, they give you their hard earned money
I just turned 22 and I feel really old. I decided to take a break from social media. It's okay where I am today, need to stay calm and stop comparing myself to others.
@@justinbonachita8934 same. all my peers will be graduating from uni this year and here i am just dropped out a week ago on my second year at uni after switching a course because i felt like i wasn't in the right place and went back home. but here everyone keeps asking me "now what" and i really don't know..
I’m 26 and I feel so lost in life. I thought it wasn’t normal until I found this video. Social media has really made me feel like I’m a failure at my age. I want more in life. I’m fed up of feeling stuck and confused. I enjoyed this podcast and it’s definitely motivated me to write up my new year resolutions RIGHT NOW! ✨
I thought teenage years was difficult but bruh your twenties is no joke. But if it’s one thing I’ve learned in life is that it goes on. We’re supposed to get older and at times feel lost along the way, so that we can find/create ourselves and reach/inspire the people we are suppose to. Take your time with yourselves.
I'm almost 27. I just don't know what I'm doing. Lack motivation to change day-to-day. Just low energy and lethargic. Feel like I'm getting nowhere. Super anxious about everything. Have no social connections and lack self-assurance. I want to be better but I struggle to do the small things as I can't see them contributing to the eventual end goal.
why would anyone stress out about not being able to get a job unless there worried about remaining in the being bored state of mind then that i can relate
@@vikraantcheema8669 this made me happy to see. I can whole heartedly say I’m doing amazing now. I’ve moved away, found my peace, went back to school and surround myself with people who actually care about me. I started my life over after watching this video. I hope all is well for you too❤️
22 and feeling like there is nothing in life for me. I use to have many dreams and aspirations as a young kid, teen. Now I’m completely lost and not even sure what to do with my life. It’s just a waste. I can’t even be independent
Really2 same...im also 22 and have no clue whether to continue further study or find a job or start a business (which is my dream).im so sad and feel very very useless since mu parents keep pushing me to do what they want me to do.
@@muhammadzulfiqar1254 keep pushing don’t let misery give you those thoughts we have to believe in ourselves no matter how hard it is and work hard no matter how hard the obstacles are
I’m 22 and I’ve been failing class and switching in and out of majors in community college since Fall 2017. I feel like a disappointment to my parents because I can’t find a career path for myself and feel so unmotivated in school. I also feel like the clock is ticking for me because I need good health insurance for medication for my disease. I’m doing more research on careers I may be interested in and would have to change my study habits going forward. Hopefully I can get my life together soon.
I've been in and off college since 2012 before I ended up recently striving to make a change in 2018. Now I've graduated, working in my field (software development) and going to be moving out of my parents house next year. I can do it so can you! Just keep at it no matter how many times you fail or how hopeless it seems.
I feel like it’s a maturity thing. Locking in and studying will get better as you age. I’m almost done with my 4 year Manufacturing Engineering Degree and I’m 20. I feel like I’m in the wrong major tho but I’m gonna come back after I finish this first degree and then go back for computer science. I’m prolly not gonna be done till 25 :/
There’s something so peaceful about knowing you’re not alone. I’m 21 about to move back with my mom in a couple months.. tired of stressing about bills EVERY MONTH
Im about to be 24 and i needed this. I think part of the mindf*ck of your 20s vs your 30s is you assume 20s = young and 30s = old. So wrong; you're only as old as you think you are. Age is just a number. If at 30 you finally reach your goals and you look back and feel you "lost" your 20s, dont! You were working to where you are now! By definition thats not a waste! In the grand scheme of things, youre still young! You gotta sacrifice now to be where you wanna be at 30!
I’m in my 20s life, i’m 21 and still struggling to accept the reality of life, still trying to accept my doubt I’ll be here again when i’ve achieved my goals Indeed, See you all in years 🙏🏻🖤 WE’RE NOT ALONE
@@annayasmine2000 I’m 20 and I’m so lost.. Like I don’t feel like myself no more.. I don’t know what I want to do in life. Don’t know where to start. Please help
Yess, all of this!!! Lord knows my 20s have been rough but I wouldn't trade this journey for anything. I'm knocking on 30 and just now starting to figure things out. Still have a long way to go but once you stop trying to be in control and just go along for the ride things will start to fall in place. Stay strong guys, we got this!
I needed to hear this. I'm 26 years old and I been out of college for three years. I honestly thought I was slacking or doing things wrong. My dream is to work in sports media. But the rejections and the no's got to me. They're even points where I didn't apply because I just knew they were going to say no. Honestly I work at a grocery store and I still live with my mother. Seeing people's highlight reels on Instagram made me really jealous especially people who worked in my field. In my mind I was like what are they doing right that I'm doing wrong. Honestly at 26 I thought I was getting old and wasting my 20's. I often times felt like I didn't have it together. I almost had a panic attack because I was so anxious about my. But I needed to hear this. It's okay not to have it together.
Currently 19 and couldn’t even have agreed even more ! Anytime I feel like I’m not where I am I immediately go into ‘OVERDRIVE’ mode where I feel if I’m not working and doing something every second of the day I feel like a failure ! But this video has opened my eyes to start to get a grasp of it’s actually “OK” and that my life currently is about enjoying , discovering and growing ! Thank you so much for this ! Really needed to hear this !
I recently lost everything my job, my car, and my apartment ended up having to move back to my parents house. I feel like such a failure. Ill be turning 25 next month.
You're not a failure. And if people in your life are telling you that, they aren't the healthy group to be around. And if you're telling yourself that, that's when you need a good support group to pick you back up. Sending love 🌼❤
I’m 19 and I have it the other way around. I’ve never had my “foot on the gas” I’ve always relaxed and lived a sheltered life. I’ve grown very sad as all of my friends seem to know what they’re doing in school and everything. I’m a stoner who hates his life and has no drive for anything. It’s ok isn’t gonna help me :/ been living that life too long
I’m 19 and I feel like I’m 63 been on my own for so long. Miss my family. Miss friends. Never was taught a good support system so being my own for so long feels so :|| but u gotta enjoy things. All love
I’m 20 and I’m literally so stressed and depressed about tying to find a job not having my license and not having my own place. I just want to die 😭😭😭.
I’m 24, and I am still stuck in graduate school trying to attain my Master’s degree in neurolinguistics. My goal was to graduate next month and get enrolled into a PhD program by September. But no matter how hard I tried, none of these plans worked out for me. My professor won’t let me graduate and my PhD application got declined. I’m now in a state of depression and anxiety where I am watching my peers get high-paying full-time jobs and where I spent the last month playing video games to take my mind off my stressful Master’s program. I have lost my motivation in pushing myself, and I can barely even touch my thesis experimentation once a week. I hope everything is going to be okay 😢 Edit: Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! I am now 26; I graduated from my master's successfully and am now studying at a prestigious PhD program in Europe. The scholarship I currently have is higher than the salaries my peers make. I am set to get my doctoral degree next year. I want to say that, feeling stuck in life is just a stage that will soon pass, and things do turn around for good. Hopefully my story helped, wishing everyone a good day :)
I don’t know you but I was touched by your story. I want to encourage you that -YES, it is going to be ok . Do not give up on your dreams. Remember we all run our races differently ( some hop, some run , some walk, some crawl ) but we will all get there one way or another. Please Stay strong
Thank you for this vid! I literally searched for this video. So far, your video is much clear and inspirational compared to others. Good luck, people @20s!💞❤️
Thank you for this message, I am in my 20s and I too feel lost especially taking a "road less traveled" career wise, acting/modeling. This video encouraged me to keep on moving forward.
Thank you so much for this video, I have been struggling mentally and emotionally for close to a year now & really glad to come across this! Really grateful
Thank you Hafeez for this video. I know this was posted over 2yrs ago. But it made me feel better about the path I’m on right now. I’m 24 and still figuring it out.
I’m 24 turning 25 next month and recently resigned from my job which I moved 1000+ miles away from home for. I studied hard in college studying computer science and even after getting my bachelor’s I studied more to get some certs to secure a job like this. After all the hard work and pushing myself I learned that it really is important to take the time to slow down, look at what’s around you and going on inside your mind and figure out what you truly like. 25 is looking like a year of discovery for me for sure. Thank you for this video!
Loved this. Thank you. Most of my friends are in their late 20s to mid 30s, and I look at their lives and compare theirs to mine. This video was so validating, and gave me hope.
Whew, i needed this.... 24 and stressed out 😰. Sometimes I have to stop and tell myself it’s ok to not have it all figured out right now and stop comparing myself to others... even thought about getting off social media period
Thanks so much for posting this 🙏 Sometimes I wonder whether my life even matters & if I can achieve even the most basic things necessary to be a competent adult. But it’s comforting to hear that someone can relate to my situation, & that I hopefully still have some kind of value despite my many shortcomings.
This channel seems VERY underrated! Thank you so much... you have no idea how much I needed this! I feel so behind in life, I’m about to be 23 and I feel like I’ve accomplished nothing,l. I have big dreams, but have no idea where to even begin to make them happen. I hope one day that I will be where I want to be, but thanks to you, I now feel more okay with where I’m at. I see everyone around me doing so well and it makes me feel bad, but you’re right! We’re all trying to figure things out! Thank you for helping me see that I’m not alone! ❤️
I really needed this Hafeez. Thank you bro. I was sitting in the parking lot at my job just refusing to go back inside. Idk if it’s because of lack of sleep or a feeling of hopelessness. Lately I’ve had my foot on the gas trying to get to my next destination and I just needed to hear this today. 🙏🏼
Thanks for this powerful insight. It's helped me understand that I should stop rushing my life. Easier said than done. Couple of months ago I woke up one day in extreme existential crisis mode, freaking out that I am going to be 24 in April, totally thinking life has blown by way faster than I wanted it too. Since then I've still struggled but I believe acceptance is another thing that has allowed me to live in the moment more and be less critical of myself. Accepting that I'm 23 and I don't have all the answers. There's still so many lessons to be learned in life and the human process is supposed to be a curious and adventurous one. We are not gods, vampires, etc... anything immortal that has one purpose. My belief in the moment is that we are meant to live in a way that reflects our inner person to the world and back to us and makes us proud to be that.. not living with shame and regret, etc. Anyways WORK IN PROGRESS of course, but thanks for the positive outlook.
Man I’m telling you.. before I watched this, I saw another video that said if you’re feeling empty you need to get out and find your purpose, you need to mend your past, you need to get productive! And I was feeling even sadder because I had no idea how to fix this void I have of not feeling complete or having everything figured out. Then I watch your video and I am immediately better. Thank you for waking me up and letting me know that confusion is normal and okay! Thank you thank you so much !
This is exactly what I needed to hear 🥺 I'm 22 and I felt left behind. I even isolated myself with my friends because they all have their stable job and seems like they've all figured things out after we graduated the same year, and here I am, not knowing what I wanna do, living with my parent's house and still have a lot of emotional traumas that I haven't fixed yet, and I still feel so immature. Since I got laid off at my previous job last year which only lasted for months, I felt so worthless and afraid to start again because I'm worried with my employment gap and still wasn't able to communicate well with people. Anyway, thank you for this video, somehow it gave me comfort 🥺
Needed this. I’ve been stressing so much about being 24, divorced with no educational background. But I’m ok. I’m a manager and I’m saving. And that’s ok for now.
Thank you because I been wilin with the anxiety. Y'all, we will really be okay. In time, everything you desire will pass. One thing I've learned is that "letting go" is the quickest way to attracting what you want. Of course, do the necessary work but realize that we can only do what we can do! To your point about social media, it's wild of us to even attempt to compare our lives to someone on social media. Those people haven't walked in our shoes. They don't know our traumas, how far we've come and how much God has favored our lives. It doesn't make sense to compare an apple to an orange. We are different. Our journeys are different. And that is okay. Thank you again for this dope video!! I hope that whoever is reading this finds peace today knowing that it's okay to not have all of the answers. Just. Keep. Going. :)
I’m 22 and it’s 2 in the morning and I’m having anxiety tonight stressing about things I know I can’t control stressing about who am I where am I going how am I going to get through University next year what am I gonna do if I fail how can I afford this and so on and so on seriously the last two years have been nothing but feeling lost
22 in the same position rn. I feel like a failure and idk how I’m gonna finish with the money issues I have. My parents are disappointed and keep comparing me to my cousins who are much further “ahead” 😔
I've been on and off college since 2012 before I ended up recently striving to make a change in 2018. Now I've graduated, working in my field (software development) and going to be moving out of my parents house next year. I can do it, so can you! Just keep at it no matter how many times you fail or how hopeless it seems.
25, a few days ago gave up a really big employment opportunity due to my anxiety.. am now left feeling massively regretful however going to push on that it just wasn’t meant to be, I hope myself & whoever’s reading this ends up where they’re meant to be, happy and content
It’s 9:54 am and I’m suppose to be at orientation at 10:00 am, truth be told my anxiety been through the roof since the “interview” I too turned it down & feeling a little bad🙍🏾♀️… but hey something better will come along
When Hafeez said "its okay", i started tearing up. i just turned 26 and have been working so hard to find myself the past 4 years, trying education and different jobs, and im still broke, no direction, confused. Thanks hafeez. I hope one day to become half the man you are
I'm 26 and feel lost, all started when I was deported back to Mexico at 21. Lived in the US for 19 years and yes I would say its social media that sometimes brings me down per I see everyone I went to school with having businesses and being successful. It's like started all over in a country im from but not actually from if that makes sense. Hope everybody stay blessed up ! We got this !!!
I figured a lot out on the way eventually but I REALLY could have used someone telling this in my 20s. I really hope any 20 yr olds out there today take this to heart.
Thank you for this I’m 20 years old i was abandoned once at age 11 and again by my adopted parents and again by the system. Been feeling really lost and this helps a lot ❤️
I can understand I was once 20 years old didn’t have my license fresh Outta college. no job still no job dude I’m 24 but you know what you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be and you know what getting your drivers license that will come to you. I would Wait to get a job I know it sucks but you can supplement that by getting a volunteer position somewhere at least that way you’d be doing something a couple times a week or if you have the flexibility in your schedule every day.
Thank you for this video I feel relaxed watching this video I have other people telling me the same thing but I keep forgetting at times and I am beating my self up about things.
Omg this video come in time I need it ASAP . Because the hardness being in 20s that every one have stereotype your body shape, your education, your job, your relationship, your partner, having kids, and how you have in your bank account. Literally this is killing me 😫😫😫😫

Wow, I’m 20 years old and I was literally crying about not knowing what I’m doing right before you posted this video. This was God sent thank you ❤️
Update?
@@vikraantcheema8669 this made me happy to see. I can whole heartedly say I’m doing amazing now. I’ve moved away, found my peace, went back to school and surround myself with people who actually care about me. I started my life over after watching this video. I hope all is well for you too❤️
You have a lot of time left you dont even realise. Travel, work odd jobs, persue your hobbies. 20 is really young!!
@@fascinatinglist9654 thank you ❤️ a lot has changed in two years. I’m 22 now and I realize that a lot more. I love life a lot more now
@@Ki.Lashay I'm very happy for you, i wish you nothing but the very best moving forward.
22 and feeling like there is nothing in life for me. I use to have many dreams and aspirations as a young kid, teen. Now I’m completely lost and not even sure what to do with my life. It’s just a waste. I can’t even be independent
I feel just the same. It’s the worst feeling ever stg
Really2 same...im also 22 and have no clue whether to continue further study or find a job or start a business (which is my dream).im so sad and feel very very useless since mu parents keep pushing me to do what they want me to do.
@@muhammadzulfiqar1254 same man they decide things for me that i dont like
You might need professional help, I'd recommend seeing a therapist.
@@muhammadzulfiqar1254 keep pushing don’t let misery give you those thoughts we have to believe in ourselves no matter how hard it is and work hard no matter how hard the obstacles are
I’m 22 and I’ve been failing class and switching in and out of majors in community college since Fall 2017. I feel like a disappointment to my parents because I can’t find a career path for myself and feel so unmotivated in school. I also feel like the clock is ticking for me because I need good health insurance for medication for my disease. I’m doing more research on careers I may be interested in and would have to change my study habits going forward. Hopefully I can get my life together soon.
Has anything improved in that last 5 months?
I’m in the same boat bro I feel you
I've been in and off college since 2012 before I ended up recently striving to make a change in 2018. Now I've graduated, working in my field (software development) and going to be moving out of my parents house next year.
I can do it so can you! Just keep at it no matter how many times you fail or how hopeless it seems.
I relate so much to your story, except I’m still 21. And I’m rooting for you 💕!
I feel like it’s a maturity thing. Locking in and studying will get better as you age. I’m almost done with my 4 year Manufacturing Engineering Degree and I’m 20. I feel like I’m in the wrong major tho but I’m gonna come back after I finish this first degree and then go back for computer science. I’m prolly not gonna be done till 25 :/
Every day of your life is about growth change and evolving
24 years old . When I was younger I thought life was a joke i didn't think life was gone hit me hard in the face lol
yo same way 25 years old
There’s something so peaceful about knowing you’re not alone. I’m 21 about to move back with my mom in a couple months.. tired of stressing about bills EVERY MONTH
Im about to be 24 and i needed this. I think part of the mindf*ck of your 20s vs your 30s is you assume 20s = young and 30s = old. So wrong; you're only as old as you think you are. Age is just a number. If at 30 you finally reach your goals and you look back and feel you "lost" your 20s, dont! You were working to where you are now! By definition thats not a waste! In the grand scheme of things, youre still young! You gotta sacrifice now to be where you wanna be at 30!
I’m in my 20s life, i’m 21 and still struggling to accept the reality of life, still trying to accept my doubt
I’ll be here again when i’ve achieved my goals
Indeed, See you all in years 🙏🏻🖤
WE’RE NOT ALONE
Miss jasmine how’s it going now? I hope it’s going well
@@Anonymous-zu8qt The journey is lonely and sad but I'll be ok, thank you dear
@@annayasmine2000 I’m 20 and I’m so lost.. Like I don’t feel like myself no more.. I don’t know what I want to do in life. Don’t know where to start. Please help
Yess, all of this!!! Lord knows my 20s have been rough but I wouldn't trade this journey for anything. I'm knocking on 30 and just now starting to figure things out. Still have a long way to go but once you stop trying to be in control and just go along for the ride things will start to fall in place. Stay strong guys, we got this!
Exactly!!! We're glad to hear that
Lesa charna any update ?
I needed to hear this. I'm 26 years old and I been out of college for three years. I honestly thought I was slacking or doing things wrong. My dream is to work in sports media. But the rejections and the no's got to me. They're even points where I didn't apply because I just knew they were going to say no. Honestly I work at a grocery store and I still live with my mother. Seeing people's highlight reels on Instagram made me really jealous especially people who worked in my field. In my mind I was like what are they doing right that I'm doing wrong. Honestly at 26 I thought I was getting old and wasting my 20's. I often times felt like I didn't have it together. I almost had a panic attack because I was so anxious about my. But I needed to hear this. It's okay not to have it together.
Currently 19 and couldn’t even have agreed even more ! Anytime I feel like I’m not where I am I immediately go into ‘OVERDRIVE’ mode where I feel if I’m not working and doing something every second of the day I feel like a failure ! But this video has opened my eyes to start to get a grasp of it’s actually “OK” and that my life currently is about enjoying , discovering and growing ! Thank you so much for this ! Really needed to hear this !
im 19 too, i feel the same, we need to learn to enjoy every day of our life . without going in panic mode or going fast.
I recently lost everything my job, my car, and my apartment ended up having to move back to my parents house. I feel like such a failure. Ill be turning 25 next month.
Ur fine. Ur still in ur early 20s
You're not a failure. And if people in your life are telling you that, they aren't the healthy group to be around. And if you're telling yourself that, that's when you need a good support group to pick you back up. Sending love 🌼❤
You’re fine! You’ll get there
I’m 19 and I have it the other way around. I’ve never had my “foot on the gas” I’ve always relaxed and lived a sheltered life. I’ve grown very sad as all of my friends seem to know what they’re doing in school and everything. I’m a stoner who hates his life and has no drive for anything. It’s ok isn’t gonna help me :/ been living that life too long
You’ll be okay bro. You got this
I’m 19 and I feel like I’m 63 been on my own for so long. Miss my family. Miss friends. Never was taught a good support system so being my own for so long feels so :|| but u gotta enjoy things. All love
I’m 20 and I’m literally so stressed and depressed about tying to find a job not having my license and not having my own place. I just want to die 😭😭😭.
I'm 20, and I know where I'm going in life. But I don't know where to go, where to search to gain skills. Thank you for this.
Why am I crying listening to this
I feel you on this 😞
Thank you so much Hafeez - this is what we all needed to hear!
Something so simple yet..it really touched my heart and you made me cry..in a good way. I feel such pressure
I’m 24, and I am still stuck in graduate school trying to attain my Master’s degree in neurolinguistics. My goal was to graduate next month and get enrolled into a PhD program by September. But no matter how hard I tried, none of these plans worked out for me. My professor won’t let me graduate and my PhD application got declined. I’m now in a state of depression and anxiety where I am watching my peers get high-paying full-time jobs and where I spent the last month playing video games to take my mind off my stressful Master’s program. I have lost my motivation in pushing myself, and I can barely even touch my thesis experimentation once a week. I hope everything is going to be okay 😢
Edit: Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! I am now 26; I graduated from my master's successfully and am now studying at a prestigious PhD program in Europe. The scholarship I currently have is higher than the salaries my peers make. I am set to get my doctoral degree next year. I want to say that, feeling stuck in life is just a stage that will soon pass, and things do turn around for good. Hopefully my story helped, wishing everyone a good day :)
God is with you!
God is within you!
I don’t know you but I was touched by your story. I want to encourage you that -YES, it is going to be ok . Do not give up on your dreams. Remember we all run our races differently ( some hop, some run , some walk, some crawl ) but we will all get there one way or another. Please Stay strong
Oh no so sorry what your going through my precious dear take heart ❤️ sending much much love and prayers 🙏 your way dear!!!!
These are the exact words I need right now. Thanks brother.
Thank you for this vid! I literally searched for this video. So far, your video is much clear and inspirational compared to others. Good luck, people @20s!💞❤️
Thank you for this message, I am in my 20s and I too feel lost especially taking a "road less traveled" career wise, acting/modeling. This video encouraged me to keep on moving forward.
Thank you so much for this video, I have been struggling mentally and emotionally for close to a year now & really glad to come across this! Really grateful
Thank you Hafeez for this video. I know this was posted over 2yrs ago. But it made me feel better about the path I’m on right now. I’m 24 and still figuring it out.
Man you don't know How much this helped me, thank you
Man I just wanna say that, I thank God I watched your video. I’m currently feeling so lost it freaking hurts. I needed this so bad. Thank you so much.
I’m 24 turning 25 next month and recently resigned from my job which I moved 1000+ miles away from home for. I studied hard in college studying computer science and even after getting my bachelor’s I studied more to get some certs to secure a job like this. After all the hard work and pushing myself I learned that it really is important to take the time to slow down, look at what’s around you and going on inside your mind and figure out what you truly like. 25 is looking like a year of discovery for me for sure. Thank you for this video!
Loved this. Thank you. Most of my friends are in their late 20s to mid 30s, and I look at their lives and compare theirs to mine. This video was so validating, and gave me hope.
Whew, i needed this.... 24 and stressed out 😰. Sometimes I have to stop and tell myself it’s ok to not have it all figured out right now and stop comparing myself to others... even thought about getting off social media period
Thanks so much for posting this 🙏 Sometimes I wonder whether my life even matters & if I can achieve even the most basic things necessary to be a competent adult. But it’s comforting to hear that someone can relate to my situation, & that I hopefully still have some kind of value despite my many shortcomings.
This vid gave me chills in a good way bro I needed to this frfr 💯 thanks for the message bro.
This channel seems VERY underrated! Thank you so much... you have no idea how much I needed this! I feel so behind in life, I’m about to be 23 and I feel like I’ve accomplished nothing,l. I have big dreams, but have no idea where to even begin to make them happen. I hope one day that I will be where I want to be, but thanks to you, I now feel more okay with where I’m at. I see everyone around me doing so well and it makes me feel bad, but you’re right! We’re all trying to figure things out! Thank you for helping me see that I’m not alone! ❤️
This was amazing! Needed to hear big bro big thanks to you! 🙏🏾
Watching this 2021 and WHEN I TELL YOUUUUUUU .. it was the Most needed & I balled my eyes out
Thank you brother, needed to hear that.
I'm 24 with way too critical standards for myself, and this video really helped me to build confidence today. Big thanks from Oklahoma!
The world needs this video! Awesome message Hafeez‼️🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Bro
I really needed this Hafeez. Thank you bro. I was sitting in the parking lot at my job just refusing to go back inside. Idk if it’s because of lack of sleep or a feeling of hopelessness. Lately I’ve had my foot on the gas trying to get to my next destination and I just needed to hear this today. 🙏🏼
everytime you say "its okay" I feel a tingle surge through my whole body. Ill keep pushing bro, thank you.
Thanks for this powerful insight. It's helped me understand that I should stop rushing my life. Easier said than done. Couple of months ago I woke up one day in extreme existential crisis mode, freaking out that I am going to be 24 in April, totally thinking life has blown by way faster than I wanted it too. Since then I've still struggled but I believe acceptance is another thing that has allowed me to live in the moment more and be less critical of myself. Accepting that I'm 23 and I don't have all the answers. There's still so many lessons to be learned in life and the human process is supposed to be a curious and adventurous one. We are not gods, vampires, etc... anything immortal that has one purpose. My belief in the moment is that we are meant to live in a way that reflects our inner person to the world and back to us and makes us proud to be that.. not living with shame and regret, etc. Anyways WORK IN PROGRESS of course, but thanks for the positive outlook.
I needed this. Starting college at age 22 and I’m just stressed about my future.
Thank you man!! This really came at the right time
I'm 26 but I am mentally still 19 years old.
Hell, I feel lost in my 30's. Lol
I was just typing this comment lolol
it's ok!!!!!!
Me too lmao
The Roommates thank u man
The Roommates 😊
Thank you for this video. I'm 27 and man have I been feeling lost.
Really needed this bruh, been feeling so low lately with no purpose in life.
Man I’m telling you.. before I watched this, I saw another video that said if you’re feeling empty you need to get out and find your purpose, you need to mend your past, you need to get productive! And I was feeling even sadder because I had no idea how to fix this void I have of not feeling complete or having everything figured out. Then I watch your video and I am immediately better. Thank you for waking me up and letting me know that confusion is normal and okay! Thank you thank you so much !
This is exactly what I needed to hear 🥺 I'm 22 and I felt left behind. I even isolated myself with my friends because they all have their stable job and seems like they've all figured things out after we graduated the same year, and here I am, not knowing what I wanna do, living with my parent's house and still have a lot of emotional traumas that I haven't fixed yet, and I still feel so immature. Since I got laid off at my previous job last year which only lasted for months, I felt so worthless and afraid to start again because I'm worried with my employment gap and still wasn't able to communicate well with people.
Anyway, thank you for this video, somehow it gave me comfort 🥺
Thank you for this touching video. It really encourages me
This is so powerful, thank you !
You're welcome!
Thank you for this. I really needed it, thank you.
bro... this is straight fire! Thank you for the motivation! Bless up!
You're Welcome
Really needed this !!! Thank you so much bro.
Needed this. I’ve been stressing so much about being 24, divorced with no educational background. But I’m ok. I’m a manager and I’m saving. And that’s ok for now.
You have a long life ahead of you. it's ok
Thank you because I been wilin with the anxiety. Y'all, we will really be okay. In time, everything you desire will pass. One thing I've learned is that "letting go" is the quickest way to attracting what you want. Of course, do the necessary work but realize that we can only do what we can do! To your point about social media, it's wild of us to even attempt to compare our lives to someone on social media. Those people haven't walked in our shoes. They don't know our traumas, how far we've come and how much God has favored our lives. It doesn't make sense to compare an apple to an orange. We are different. Our journeys are different. And that is okay.
Thank you again for this dope video!! I hope that whoever is reading this finds peace today knowing that it's okay to not have all of the answers. Just. Keep. Going. :)
Thank you. It helps me to understand what I am feeling right now. Thank you
I’m 22 and it’s 2 in the morning and I’m having anxiety tonight stressing about things I know I can’t control stressing about who am I where am I going how am I going to get through University next year what am I gonna do if I fail how can I afford this and so on and so on seriously the last two years have been nothing but feeling lost
it will all be okay, literallly, im 24 its what its all about
26 here, same as you said
22 in the same position rn. I feel like a failure and idk how I’m gonna finish with the money issues I have. My parents are disappointed and keep comparing me to my cousins who are much further “ahead” 😔
be a real estate investor for cash flow!!

Great video! very encouraging. im 32... and still figuring stuff out. Kudos sir!
Thank you!
Thanks, I really needed this. Respect.

I can do it, so can you! Just keep at it no matter how many times you fail or how hopeless it seems.
25, a few days ago gave up a really big employment opportunity due to my anxiety.. am now left feeling massively regretful however going to push on that it just wasn’t meant to be, I hope myself & whoever’s reading this ends up where they’re meant to be, happy and content
It’s 9:54 am and I’m suppose to be at orientation at 10:00 am, truth be told my anxiety been through the roof since the “interview” I too turned it down & feeling a little bad🙍🏾♀️… but hey something better will come along
I’m 25 and I really needed this , I want so much for myself just feel lost at times feeling hopless . But ITS ok , thank you
Wow I needed to hear this so much. Thank you ❤️🙏🏼
When Hafeez said "its okay", i started tearing up.
i just turned 26 and have been working so hard to find myself the past 4 years, trying education and different jobs, and im still broke, no direction, confused.
Thanks hafeez. I hope one day to become half the man you are
Thank You. I really needed this
I really needed to hear this today, thanks roommates you guys are the best
You're welcome. glad you like it
I so needed this right now! 👏🏾👏🏾
I didn't graduate, I dont have a job, dont have money, dont have license or car, still live with mom.
I needed this. YOU HAVE NO IDEA.
Thank you for the advice. I definitely needed this
I'm 28 an really needed this thank you @theroommates
I'm 26 and feel lost, all started when I was deported back to Mexico at 21. Lived in the US for 19 years and yes I would say its social media that sometimes brings me down per I see everyone I went to school with having businesses and being successful. It's like started all over in a country im from but not actually from if that makes sense. Hope everybody stay blessed up ! We got this !!!
WILL BE LISTENING TO THIS BEFORE SLEEP EVERY OTHER DAY; DOES SUMMN' FOR MY SOUL!!😄. Thanxs
I figured a lot out on the way eventually but I REALLY could have used someone telling this in my 20s. I really hope any 20 yr olds out there today take this to heart.
Thank you for this I’m 20 years old i was abandoned once at age 11 and again by my adopted parents and again by the system. Been feeling really lost and this helps a lot ❤️
I am 21 and I am very lost right now don't have a job or license it's very hard.
I can understand I was once 20 years old didn’t have my license fresh Outta college. no job still no job dude I’m 24 but you know what you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be and you know what getting your drivers license that will come to you. I would Wait to get a job I know it sucks but you can supplement that by getting a volunteer position somewhere at least that way you’d be doing something a couple times a week or if you have the flexibility in your schedule every day.
Thank you for this video I feel relaxed watching this video I have other people telling me the same thing but I keep forgetting at times and I am beating my self up about things.
I really needed to hear this. Been feeling so low for the longest time. Turning 25 in 6 months and I'm so lost.
Literally cried about this. Thank you so much for reminding us to slow down sometimes
Dope video my guy , much appreciated
Thank you man. I definitely needed this. Some people suggest if you feel lost to help someone
and you did just that bro^
Omg this video come in time I need it ASAP . Because the hardness being in 20s that every one have stereotype your body shape, your education, your job, your relationship, your partner, having kids, and how you have in your bank account. Literally this is killing me 😫😫😫😫
