23 and Lost

Welcome to 23 and Lost

First Entry, 11/25/2017

At some point in our lives, we all have those thoughts.
What am I doing? Why am I doing it? I don't know what I want to do with my life, but this isn't it.
At some point, we all feel lost.
I created this website because I wanted to create a space for vulnerability.
I also wanted to create a space to share information, networks, and knowledge.
This page isn't solely meant for 23 year olds, but I felt that 23 is the age that best captures what this site represents. At 23, freshly graduated, you're tackling the world, expectations, and a new life stage all at once.
Most of the guidance out there, frankly, sucks.
Follow your passion!
Work hard! Wake up at 5 am every day!
Focus on skills!
Focus on the money!
Be realistic!
Dream big!
What happens when you don't know what you're working for or towards, and you feel like you're spinning your wheels?
What happens when you're not even sure what success means for you, or what's next in your life?
What are you supposed to do when all the advice conflicts?
I hope this page is more helpful by illuminating real stories and real paths and shedding some light on how people figure out what they're doing on a day to day basis.
