Do you agree with Steve Harvey about focusing in your 20s?

No. Learn balance.

Balance work and play, balance your needs vs your wants(90% of the things these people tell you that you need or need to be doing are irrelevant as fck), balance the use of your time, balance looking after your own health(diet/exercise/sleep), balance family and friendships, balance your income/investments vs your spending...




Balance.

Stop looking far a sensei and make your own rules


This right here…


Everyone is on a different journey and path. Just because something might have worked for one doesn’t necessarily mean it will work for another. Bottom line, do what the fukk you want and makes you happy. As long as you’re not hurting anyone else and aren’t destroying the world you should be good.

You can focus and still have fun in your 20's :mjlol:


Steve Harvey's own success shows you that and even contradicts his point. He didn't focus in his 20's yet still became successful and a millionaire :mjlol:

But let them tell it that you shouldn't have a social life and experiences :mjlol:

:pachaha:Lol y’all something else. In the game of life and great success, there is no such thing as balance. A guy who’s balancing a marriage with kids, stands no chance against a man without the obligation. And there’s this thing called passion. If u love what u do, u love it with all ur heart. U focus on it. Women be damned. Family be damned. And I know that statement offends many. But if ur walking thru life dithering, playing juggles with ur priorities, you’ll most definitely come out average.


Usain bolt is said to be the fastest man. Well, next time he runs, put a 10 pound backpack on him. See if he remains the fastest man alive.

Y’all need to stop repeating what u heard from others.

If you don't do it in your 20s you won't do it, and I say this as someone who doesn't/didn't do 85% of what he was saying. If your 20s is "buckle down and focus" and 30s is "all business", when does fun happen?
I feel you but unfortunately, life as a man isn’t really about “fun.” I know it doesn’t sound glamorous but it’s about building a legacy and resources for yourself and your kids to enjoy later in life

It's imbalanced and unhealthy in modern living. Everyone isn't on "legacy" time.

You can have fun while primarily focusing in your 20s and 30s :dahell:

My parents met in college in their very early 20s. They both supported each other in their individual grinds and both make 6 figures and that was B4 my mother gave birth to my sister and I. I’m not saying you shouldn’t just focus on yourself in your 20s but meeting the right person, that life partner, then in theory that shouldn’t distract you from your purpose.

Now if you’re down bad and struggling, it’s def not the time to be dating and all that. But if you’re in a good head space and your on your grind, I don’t see it being so bad to delegate some of your time to dating. People need a well rounded life. Nobody need to be grinding 24/7, it’s not sustainable. Even if it’s just your 20s. People gotta remember to enjoy life. Life ain’t all about making money. I know this society has made it seem like it has to be but I promise there’s more important things out there.

Get your education, get your degree, find a solid career and at the same time have fun and pray to god u find that woman by 29

That’s my advice

I got everything except finding that right woman to married by 30. And at 40 the women that comes way are mentally damaged from previous relationships in they 20s with the players/ballers
