What advice would you give to your youngest self?

Don't waste your 20's working on open source until all hours of the night. Spend it building a software business.

slow down life. Take it as an experience to overcome

You need cash flow to make money.

Держись за тебя

Don't stop believin'.

"Stop skipping classes and party less".

Life is numbers. There's no way around it. From your social security number to your credit score, your college GPA to your 401k, how many children do you have, how many divorces do you have, how much is your house worth? These are all numbers.. My younger self would have said love can pay the bills.

Never follow the trend. Listen and take advice only from experienced people.

Never take an office job, it's a trap: You get a paid a fraction of the value your create and the time you put in that 9-5 would be better spent building your own business/service/solution.

probably to not care what others are telling you to do and also to start following your passion earlier even if it is must 30 mins a day.
