Age: a flawed metric of growth

When you let your age be the sole metric you use to measure growth, it's the quickest way to multiply the already existing external pressure life brings. The overall median age of billionaires tends to be in the mid-to-late 60s. Of course, there are outliers like Zuck, but they're not the rule. The race to be wealthy doesn't end in your 20s, and you're not a failure if you don't see it yet. Where you are today is meant to lead you there. Contextualize your current phase, remind yourself that where you are is important to where you're going.

Postscript: I only used wealth as an example to buttress the core point — this understanding is equally applicable to other aspects of life.
