Experience is just showing up for years. Expertise is actually knowing what you’re doing when you show up. And yes, there’s a big difference.

Parenting is the only big life project with zero prerequisites. No license, no exam, not even a crash course on how to stop a toddler from eating glue. And maybe that’s okay—because none of us know what we’re doing anyway.

Only living things create. If you’re not creating, you’re not alive. So stop scrolling, start scribbling—and yes, that half-burnt banana cake counts too.

True joy is creating something for yourself—no audience, no agenda, no one dangling a paycheck over your head. Because the second you start crafting for someone else’s approval, you’re selling little pieces of your soul.

No matter how many boxes you tick, there’s always that one unfinished thing everyone notices. It’s like the universe is conspiring to make your to-do list immortal. Here’s a little reminder: you don’t have to keep sprinting after perfection. Let them look at what’s pending—while you celebrate everything you’ve already done.

Thinking you’ll learn money management once you’re “earning enough”? Big mistake. The secret isn’t how much you make—it’s when you start practicing. Spoiler: that time is today.

Forget four-year degrees being the holy grail—by the time you graduate, your precious skill set might already be collecting dust. The future belongs to the endlessly curious and the perpetually adaptable. So stop clinging to your academic past and start learning for the present.

You’ve done the grind. You’ve crossed the finish line. Don’t whisper your wins—say them out loud. The world needs to hear you say, “Yep, I did that!”
