The price that you pay for anything is the amount of life that you need to give up in exchange to get it. The first place to start is what does the dream life look like for you? What is the ideal day look like to you? What time would you be waking up? What would you be working on? Who would you be working on it for? And then how much money do you need in order to sustain that lifestyle? The thing that I would go back and definitely tell myself is just to get clear on what it is that I want. I was always really weighed down by this decision of like, what do you want to do with the rest of your life? Sabri it's like, bro, like, I'm 16, I don't know what the f I want to do. Just trying to figure out my shit, right? The question that I wish somebody would ask me is what do you want to be doing every day, right? Or what do you want to be doing Every day in 5 years time? What does that look like? What are the things that interest you? And that is just a way more real way to work out the problem than figuring out what do you want to do for the rest of your life.
