23: 8 Things I Wish I Knew At Graduation The Rich Immigrant
-
- Investing
I don't know about you but I love graduations and I'm a sucker for a good graduation speech. Something about that transition from being a student to adulthood (such a scan btw) always has me in my feelings about the journey culminating in those moments where we don our caps and gowns. Celebrating the accomplishment and looking ahead with great hope for the future.
When Nina reached out to ask that I share things that I'd tell my younger self, I had to do it! I could have gone on and on but I wanted to keep it around 20 minutes (way longer than a typical graduation speech). Here are 8 things I wish I knew as a brand new graduate:
1. You are not behind on life, not now, not ever
2. Focus on relationships always but know that they will evolve
3. Normalize therapy and asking for help
4. It's time to get down and dirty with your finances
5. Cultivate the habit of giving back
6. Decide who you are or the world will define you
7. No one has done this before, we are all winging it
8. Always do your best work
Bonus: Find your voice and use it, but don't wait to feel courageous. Move even in uncertainty.
This episode is for the new graduate, the not-so-new graduate, or for the person in a season of transitions. I hope this episode meets you where you are. Over here at The Rich Immigrant, we are rooting for you in all seasons!
