I'm currently about to turn 18 in 2 months. I dropped out of HS. Landed a job where I make the 2.5x the average age for everyone under 21.
And I am super anxious about being behind. I have anxiety about not having started a business yet, that I may not be financially free by the time I'm 19, and just that I haven't gotten further in life. I know it sounds silly but that's how I feel and I am deeply ashamed.
I'd like to do my military service for 6 months this summer, I think that I really need it for TONS of reasons, I know that it will benefit me for the rest of my life, but I can't stop thinking about how 6 months of my life that could've gone to reaching my financial goals went to not earing any money at all. Or career progression, those 6 months could go towards me being promoted and doubling my salary.
I needed to get this off my chest, is this normal/someone who feels the same?
Is it good that I feel this way? If I didn't feel like this, I maybe wouldn't be "me", and never achieve my goals.
