If you're young and ambitious, you have 2 career options:
1. Enter an old industry - Wait 20 years until experienced people retire.
2. Enter a new industry - Become an expert in 12 months.
The competitive advantage of being young is you're an internet native. Use it.

The Paradox of Focus:
Moving boldly in one direction not only increases your odds of getting there, but also increases your odds of picking up unexpected rewards along the way.
Make the most of one opportunity and more opportunities come your way. To get more, focus on less.

Aldous Huxley on approaching life with lightness, even in the face of difficulty:
βItβs dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though youβre feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them. I was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig.
Lightly, lightly β itβs the best advice ever given meβ¦ So throw away your baggage and go forward. There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet, trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair. Thatβs why you must walk so lightly.β

Question to think about
Many things in life go through phases. It can be like the seasons: spring, summer, fall, winter. Each season has its own set of needs and demands.
Think about something important to you. Maybe itβs a project or a job. Perhaps a hobby or even a relationship. What season are you in right now and what does that season require?
