Be careful to not be caught up bettering your own life, thinking you’re young and this is your chance to become the next best thing, and missing out on everything going on around you. Opportunities arise sometimes in not just bettering your life, but making part of your life understanding and bettering the lives of others.

Talk to people and understand industries you are not familiar with, maybe stuff you have never thought of being interested in could turn out to be an amazing untapped opportunity.

Why wait to be dragged out of the world you’ve put yourself into? There is absolutely no excuse for being too young and too busy to step out of your world to see opportunities to be rewarded outside of self achievement.

Stop narrowing your entire world to chasing your ideas and monetization plans, and observe the world outside of your own. Learn about the way some things are, help other people in even the smallest of ways be able to live in the first place, and you will quite possibly find the reward you’ve always wanted, maybe in a different form or context, but equally fulfilling.
