Evolution, there is LOADS more to come yet!!! You are only young, you don't even comprehend how much there is ahead for you!! It is only natural to feel that way at 21, 22. I felt exactly the same way at that age. The 20s can be periods of finding one's feet, finding and establishing oneself, the 30s are likely to be better...but life is always fluid and there are no hard and fast rules. If you work hard you may be in a better position than your peers at some point in the future... there are swings and roundabouts for everybody. Can I ask what your job is in?  AT IP: Logged |

Hey we were born the same year  don’t worry about it. Some people reach old age and feel they wasted their life, you’ve got a long way to go…and at least now maybe you’ll learn to enjoy it and use it productively. So in 20/30 years, you wont feel the same as you do now  and you’ll be able to look back and be proud  IP: Logged |

Evolution, use your fear and uncertainty to your advantage to propel you forward. I'm also a Sagittarius (Dec 4), and at your age felt a little lost and without direction, it is a little scary. Just try not to compare yourself to what others are doing. It's a surefire way of getting yourself down. The best thing you can do? Ask yourself what you want to do and how can you get there? You will be amazed at the answers. They're there.One thing someone close to me (and very wise) said about going after what you want: "He must not be hungry enough". This doesn't apply to you, but what he meant is that sometimes a person becomes too complacent to go after their dreams. The good thing is you're aware that you want to do something and you're young, maybe you haven't discovered your dream yet, but you will. IP: Logged |

the main challenge i face is a changing mind. every few months into a project (studies, job, etc...) i feel i don't want to belong there and leave it half done. boredom strikes me very easily. i like smart work but somehow can't get into something that involvs smart work. and i'm very bad at hard work. i want som e energy pill.self pity is also my weak point. u will find me getting keyboard happy on lindaland everytime i'm sad.

TheEvolution -I'm not sure if you understand yourself well enough to be able to forget about all those things you judge yourself with, and believe with all your heart that there is no "destination" ... it's more like a journey, no matter how much we try to harness mo na ... that's mother nature in case you're new ... ------------------
