any case studies / anecdotes of people significantly upping their agency in their 20's?

feel like i had a huge jump when i was 18 and a slow climb but just been.. doing life recently

start a startup, have kids, do things that could kill you. take more and bigger risks. its your birthright and the reason you were put on this earth

how do you think about taking the leap into a new risk (kids, startup)? is it just "do it scared"?

yes. think less. i wasted too much of my life in 'analysis paralysis'. kinda like dropping into a half pipe: you gotta just do it. too easy to think your way out of risk-taking 

example: i knew within 6 weeks i should've quite google (bad fit) but stayed for 6 years. i waited until i was in my late 30s to have kids and start a company. wish i would've done both 10 years earlier. advice to my younger self: do more, think less

ah interesting! i also didn't enjoy my time at google - only lasted 8 months haha

did you ever have points of regret on the path of starting a company?
