I just turned 25.

Every year somebody always asks, “What does [insert age] feel like? You feel any different?” 

Last year, like every other, my answer was,”Nah, 24 feels just like 23.”

Even though it’s only been two days into my 26th year, I can already feel that something’s changed.

This time, the answer to that question is yes. 

Oh shit. 

I’m a grown ass man.

…but I don’t feel it. I still feel like a kid. I know that I’ve never been smarter - but at the same time I realize that I really don’t know shit.

The most valuable lesson that I learned this year is that TIME is exponentially more valuable than MONEY.

You can’t buy it.
You cant borrow it.
You can’t slow it down.

Wow. 

…and to think I used to want to “kill time.” I wouldn’t dare ‘kill time’ at this point.

Everybody is living for something. We just gotta find out what it is.

I admire the people that I see that are working towards living their passion, Vickie, Danny, Chris, Dave, Jamroc, Jacobe, Treon & others. They have their ‘life project’ and each day they are chasing their dreams.

Living with no passion ensures a sad death. I’ve died many times in my dreams and each time - whether abrupt or slow - I spend my last moments cycling through my most vivid memories.

I want as many memories as possible.

I have one goal this year. Find my passion. I know I’m close. I think the key to finding your passion is soaking up as much knowledge and experience to weed out the things I don’t want to spend my time doing.

Of course that’s easier said than done.

Just like everything else in life.
