3/6. Age is increasingly irrelevant. Didn't start my first career till I was 30. Have switched up a couple times since.

4/6. "What do you want to do with your life" is too big a question to answer. You will never live "a career." You will only live "days." I find it's better to ask "how do I want to spend my *day*", and then I look for the work and communities that support that.

5/6. Don't sweat the time you lose figuring out what you want to actually do. That is the cost of riding the ride.

6/6. Self-care is tedious, but it's a kindness you pay to everyone who cares about you.** ** This won't resonate now, but when your first friend / loved one hits the hospital (or worse) for not taking care of themselves, and there's literally nothing you can do, you'll get it.
