Spend More Time Making the Big Decisions

Uh, best piece of advice for someone 24 or a new Millennial, uh, out of college, I would say, you know, just spend more time on making the big decisions.

There's basically three really big decisions that you make around that age: it's where you live, who you're with, and what you're doing. Right? Those are the three big decisions.

We spend so much time in relationships; you know, an average relationship probably lasts a couple of years. Um, but we spend very little time deciding which relationship to get into. We spend so much time in a job, but we spend so little time deciding which job to get into.

Choosing what city to live in can almost completely determine the trajectory of your life, but we spend so little time, uh, trying to figure out what city to live in.

So if you're going to live in a city for 10 years, and if you're going to be in a job for 5 years, and if you're going to be in a relationship for a decade, you should be spending one to two years deciding on these things.

These are like highly, highly dominating, uh, decisions. So if you're 24, um, I would say those three decisions really matter. You literally have to free up your time because the world will assault you with its own agendas, and you have to say no to everything and free up your time so you can solve the important problems.

And those three are probably the three biggest ones.
