Founders at 18..
Lakhs at 19...
And I’m here still figuring things out.!!
Why am I even on LinkedIn? It just messes with my head sometimes...
Yes, I’ve felt it too.
I take breaks from LinkedIn not because I don’t value learning here —
But because sometimes it triggers overthinking.
When I see someone being the founder of XYZ company at just 18.
When someone is already earning lakhs in my age group while I’m still figuring things out.
And then it begins — comparison, doubt, anxiety.
Am I behind?
Am I doing enough?
But here’s a truth I remind myself every time:
Everyone’s journey is different.
Everyone’s timing is unique.
Just because you're not there yet doesn’t mean you never will be!
Before you compare your life to someone’s highlight reel.. pause and ask:
“What’s my path? What’s my pace?”
Because real growth takes time.
And clarity comes from consistency, not comparison.
To all students out there navigating this phase —
You’re not alone. You're not late. You’re just building your own story!
