I know these are just feelings. But..
I am 28M. I feel like should have started my creative endeavours or business risks at 21 or 22, so that I could have got a reliable side hustle to take some risks. But I did the safe thing. Got a job, and do average in it. I didn't even commit to the career thinking really donot identify with this career and that, I would do something more interesting later. I feel that the later is here, and i just feel lost.
Also, I know this is not true. That it's never too late. And to be honest ther definitely has been some progress in my life. It's just that nothing drastic. Nothing major. I feel worthless because am not doing anything amazing. The most interesting thing about me is that I have a decent paying job. I just cannot live with that truth.
I guess, as am writing this out, the summary is that dream a lot and do not have the courage to do it. I want to be more brave. I feel sad and dejected because of my own unrealistic standards of what should be doing at my age.
