What's up, guys? It's Justin Stens from Elite Man magazine. And in today's video, I'm going to talk about the five things I wish I knew in my 20s. As you get older and older times seems to just fly by. There's an old quote. I forget exactly what it is verbatim, but it's essentially the days are long and the years are short, meaning that we fill up our days with so much to do. We get so much

hectic busy schedules and just have so many compacted things into our short days that the days

seems so long because we're always trying to get things done. But as we look back on the years,

the years are so short. And as we look back, one year turns into two and it turns into five,

turns into 10, turns into 20 years.

And for whatever reason it is, I think it may be like this more and more because of the

microwave society they've been living now, especially with technology. But even older generations,

decades ago, had this same sort of perception of reality that as you get older, things just go by quicker

and your 20s fly by, your 30s fly by, your 40s fly by, and your 50s and 60s fly by. Next thing you

know, you're an old man in your 60s, late 60s, 70s, 80s, and on your deathbed in your 90s,

if you're lucky enough to even get there, and you look back,

like, what the hell happened?

Where did my life even go?

So I'm still pretty young in my 30s, but I know I'll be in my 40s soon enough.

I know I'll be in my 50s soon enough.

And I want to take these lessons that I've learned now in the past few years that I wish I knew in my 20s

and carry this perception of my new reality and these life lessons I've learned

into my 30s, into my 40s, et cetera, so that I can change my life from this point going forward

and have a better experience in my life. And I hope you take these lessons, especially if you're a

younger man in your

20s and your 30s and can learn from the things that I've learned as well. So number one,

it's okay to be alone. Something I wish I knew 15 years ago or so was that it's okay to be
