I Think more kids should take way more humble jobs. My number one piece of advice is you're 21. Live as humble as you can. not on your parents dollar, live with four roommates.

but be the admin, the assistant, the intern to the intern of the person that you most want to be like. even if that person disappoints you, because if you can see their actions, you'll be able to watch what you don't like and what you do. Like it that they do. but you're going to learn so much when you're closest to the Sun Chris Brickley A great NBA Basketball Shooting coach.

If you're right now 19 and you're like I don't want to be a doctor, lawyer, engineer, well then DM Chris Prickly 25th times nicely. don't be spam bot. try different ways because you gotta ask more than once if you want to get to the Sun and ask to be the intern. Why are so many of my former admins, my partners in business, the President of Be Friends, former interns, my partners in Empathy, both interns.

Why? Because they learn most by watching me do weird things. So if you want to be Anna Wintour If you want to be a Maverick Carter If you want to be whoever you think is the coolest.

    horrible advice, love with your parents as long as you can, most of the time theyโ€™re the only people you can trust, you donโ€™t have to โ€œlive on their dollarโ€, you can help pay the bills and you get to spend more time with them before they are gone

    So many underestimate the power of interning or taking a "low-level" job.. In reality, I think that's when you're really in the dirt observing, learning, and building the skills you'll use for the rest of your life. Don't know where to start? Pick a few people you admire and DM or email until someone responds. All it takes is that one "yes" to get close to the sun of the thing you wanna be!
