    Practice your hobbies, I didnt start taking photos or playing guitar until I was 21, I’m pretty good now, good enough to find enjoyment in them

    learn a language?

      Yeah, I need to comment that no one should be using BetterHelp or the like, if you care about your personal and/or sensitive data being stolen in a breach. BetterHelp already had privacy issues that came to light. 1 2 3

      Yeah, never feel like it’s too late to start something. There’s stuff (learning an instrument, language, craft stuff) I considered getting into in my 30s but felt like it was too late. Now I’m 40 and I’ve started and I wish I’d done it ten years ago, because I’d be so much further ahead.
