Do you agree with Steve Harvey about focusing in your 20s?

Damn ya age. If u not married u should be focused. Hell I know I am. Og Steve just confirmed what my Professor said, various unk and aunts/ parents and mentors have said focus.
if u not married :patrice:what you mean
I just say balance
having fun is just as important as focus to me
I see people who focus and don't enjoy life
There is a certain energy that only exists in your 20s

America and all it's frivolous, carefree culture got us fukked up. that's why others come here and people look up and tryna be mad/hatin cause they're ahead.

I hear you but I disagree. If our generation if off this label ish why should u only have that energy in your 20s? If u wanna have ice cream or pizza for breakfast at 32 I don't see a problem with it . I like vacations and where I like to go in the state's ain't cheap. I do it for me I don't do 4 the gram.

cuz there are definitely choices and times in life when you will have to focus less on yourself
if and when you decide to have a wife
if and when you decide to have a kids
20s is usually when people are the most free and when you have the most energy
and other people your age are free as well

He’s right in the sense that you’re not going to achieve uncommon things if you spend all your time doing what everyone else does.

Yeah, most people have too much fun and waste time in their 20s. And most people are struggling to stay above water in their 30s, 40s and 50s.

Harvey is a clown and says a lot of goofy shyt but he’s not entirely wrong here.

A little early sacrifice goes a long way in the future. I don’t know who could possibly take issue with this.

More times than not - the sooner you start, the better.

Remember, there are people who knew wtf they wanted to do when they were 6-8 years old and went out there and got it done.

You're definitely not screwed if you started late, but most likely not doing as well as you could have been had you started making $100k+ per year at 22 if you had taken things more seriously.
