Hey team,

I am 24 years old and although I know I am still young, I can't help but get in my head when I read stories about people who are now living the
fast-lane life and they're my age, or even younger. I have never started my own business and I was never focused on entrepreneurship at a young age, it was only until the past two years that I started opening my eyes and becoming more aware of the possibilities.

Do you think that not having this mindset at a young age or not being naturally inclined to the entrepreneurship lifestyle can have a detrimental impact on my success?

The main reason I want to live the fast-lane life is because I genuinely want to help people become healthier and happy, whether that's physical health, mental, spiritual or emotional. The second reason is because I want to be able to work from my laptop, anywhere in the world.

Please tell me how it is. Am I just being too soft and need a kick up the a**?
