The Success Syndicate

What’s the best advice you ignored that turned out to be spot on?

We’ve all been there—someone gives you advice, you think, ‘Yeah, whatever man, that won’t happen to me!” only to later realize they were right. Maybe it’s about your career, family, or something else else entirely, but we’ve all done it. 

I’ve done it a lot, but the one that stings is the most is ignoring the advice not to take loved ones for granted. Losing my brother Andrew this year, I was reminded of all the plans we made ‘for later’ that we would now never get to do. If I could go back, I would say “Yes” to all those times he asked to hang out or shoot the shit, no matter how tired or busy I was. 

What’s some advice that you’ve gotten in the past and ignored only to realize later you should have listened sooner?

The most regretful thing in my life was the decision to stop going to college, I couldn't survive at that time, pay college fees, pay for boarding house rent, and eat every day. I should have followed my friends who were working while studying at that time, now they are successful and living a decent life. and it's the opposite with me, even though I currently have a pretty decent life, I do all this with a lot of struggle and hard work, unlike my friends who are continuing their studies.
