Dear 20 something
<p>Your 20s can feel like a race you’re already losing, even though you just got started.</p><p><br/></p><p>1. No one knows a silent expert. Speak up.</p><p><br/></p><p>2. Never stop knocking on doors. One day, one will swing open.</p><p><br/></p><p>3. You aren’t losing just because someone else is winning.</p><p><br/></p><p>4. The cost of investment towards your career becomes your carrier.</p><p><br/></p><p>5. It’s wiser to throw a bunch of seeds while you’re young.</p><p><br/></p><p>6. Valuable relationships might just be the passport you need to access certain rooms or the magnet to attract opportunities. Don’t trivialise them.</p><p><br/></p><p>7. Get used to rejections, but also get comfortable with saying “No.”</p><p><br/></p><p>8. Hone your communication skills. Public speaking is the most important skill for anyone who sees themselves as a leader in the new age.</p><p><br/></p><p>9. The world won’t be changed by noise, but by voices that know why they speak.</p><p><br/></p><p>10. The Big Breaks are made of those little cracks. </p><p><br/></p><p>And here’s something I’ve learned:</p><p><br/></p><p>No one is more stressed than someone in their 20s who thinks they’re running out of time.</p><p><br/></p><p>But the truth is, you don’t need to have everything figured out.</p><p><br/></p><p>You don’t need a loud voice from heaven announcing your purpose.</p><p><br/></p><p>You just need to keep showing up.</p><p><br/></p><p>Keep learning.</p><p><br/></p><p>Keep building.</p><p><br/></p><p>Keep putting in the hours.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because if you stay consistent long enough, one day you’ll look around and realize you’ve quietly arrived at the future you once prayed for.</p><p><br/></p><p>So here’s to becoming comfortable with not having it all figured out.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because only time reveals what persistence has been building.</p><p><br/></p><p>Have a productive da</p>
