Why are you freaking out? Everyone goes through life differently and we don't start off equal or with the same knowledge.<br />
<br />
You need to make peace with time, every choice you've made has made you the person you are today. Personally, I feel like I wasted alot of my highschool life playing video games, no girlfriend, no social life, stuck inside ect. But ya know what, If I had to go back again I wouldn't change it for anything because it led me here. Happiness and purpose is found in the present, not the past. You're never gonna get that time back but you can always change the future. You might have to get some sacrifices to get what you really want.<br />
<br />
Don't believe the Facebook "success" stories either. Alot of it is disingenuous narrative crafting, truly happy people aren't blasting it over social media.<br />
<br />
Ehh, I know this sounds kinda woo woo but it works for me.

I'd say I'm "freaking" out not about the past. I agree that it's a) in the past and b) it made me who I am today. It's more so the future in the sense where I have so many ideas/goals etc and there's only so much time. I have to balance that with the natural over-thinking which could then cause inaction. That is why I wanted a mentor or a guide. But maybe I need a business partner instead to increase the output?<br />

Yes, I agree you shouldn't believe all those success stories out there. A very good friend of mine said "those the most happiest and wealthy are the ones not talking about it."</div>
