I doubt this comment will get far on this forum, but it does jog my memory of my favorite professor and mentor in college (a very long story). Anyway, I was complaining to him that I was struggling with keeping up learning something in fluid mechanics, and he pointed out that it took Bernoulli 20 years to put together his general equation, but, as students, we’re expected to master it in a weekend. Anyway anyway, life isn’t a race, unless you’re trying to get ahead of someone else. To your point, plenty of people can do wonderful things in their own time and on their own pace, and that may not be as fast as someone else.

I’m still in my 20s and I’ve fell to the idea that if you haven’t achieved everything you want early on then you just don’t want it enough or you’re not working hard enough.

However, what if I achieve everything before hitting 30? What would I have to look forward then?

I think some things are just meant to be hard and take a long time. You just have to learn to enjoy the process and understand that everyone has their own pace and that’s okay.
