I absolutely have no idea on what I want to do in life. I think everyone has it different. Some people have everything figured out during high school and some don't. My peers know what exactly they want to do in life but I don't. I'm trying to do as much as I can until I find something that truly works for me. It's important to find your purpose but sometimes it's just so confusing. I'm so lost lol. These videos help a lot. Thank you Ben for creating these insightful content. Your videos has really helped me build my confidence and I feel like things will start to look up if I work hard on things I'm truly passionate about. Thanks!

Take a list of paper and type every single interest that you can think of - every single one. Take enough time to do it, even if it takes you a week. Speak with your parents for their help either. Once you have everything typed on the list, start combining the dots and dive into different spheres. Hopefully the list with give you a sign. Once you have the sign, then you will start tying the chain.

Basically: it wasn't worthy apart from the fact that it helped him get out of his comfort zone and understand vaguely basic concepts of business.

For me personally, it was not really worth it in terms of academic side of things. I did 2 undergrad degrees at 2 different unis and just finished a PGCE at Sheffield Hallam. I honestly would say I didn't learn much at all and the only useful thing that came out of it was pieces of paper that employers over fixate on. Life skills it was useful in terms of like on further learning how to live and get on with people in the same flat and being dependent on yourself etc. University is not a necessity and many people go on to be extremely successful individuals. Different people walk different paths. I think that as long as you have a goal and strong determination and knowing how to bounce back from set backs, you will go places.

I doubt his success is something anyone can replicate. He found a niche market with a great following, and managed to sign up, at the time, a lot of successful fitness influencers to be ambassadors of the brand and essentially created a successful business with a cult-like following. University is a great base for most people, I mean sure, you might never use that degree if you choose to go into another field, but that knowledge is always there, and the degree will act as a viable backup.

University is not worth it. If you don’t know what to do now, you won’t know after university either. You have to try something you’re interested in, then you start to work out what you like. Don’t do nothing. University doesn’t teach skills employers want, or help you work out what you want to do, it just gives you far too much free time at vast expense.
