20, trying to figure life out . doing trading, learning dispatching, studying too, its a lot at once. feel like im always in grind mode and forgot how to just enjoy stuff. currently im financially dependent on my parents…

had some bad losses in trading lately, took a short break and now trying to actually fix my risk management before going back in

if you’re older and already been through your 20s, what do you wish someone told you back then? like what actually mattered vs what you thought mattered at the time

also anyone here into manifestation/law of attraction, does it actually work for you? not asking to like wish for money lol, more curious how you actually get into a good headspace and stay there day to day

any advice helps, thanks for reading

[like attracting money , travel etc ]

    Acquire difficult to learn, useful, and easy to implement skills that people will pay good money for. Medicine and engineering are your best bet for a high floor. Unless you have a Bloomberg terminal and are a math whiz, don’t waste your time trying to make money as a day trader. You might get lucky, but chances are you won’t. Stay out of debt as best you can.

    You didn’t ask, but I know any warm blooded 20 year old is going to be thinking about it. When it comes to women, no one is out of your league. Repeat that to yourself. No one is out of your league. The manifestation shit does work with the ladies. They respond to confidence. The more you get into the batters box and swing, the more confidence you will have the next time you get into the batters box. Eventually you will hit a home run. Hall of fame baseball players fail more than they succeed. Don’t be afraid of rejection and don’t take it personally. Just get back in the batters box and swing away.
