alot of advice is not a one size fits all. one persons can hear 'relax, we have time' or gary vee says 'have patience' and they can be successful, or not.. while others feel that time is running out, and still become successful or not. its all circumstantial and how you respond to lifes random series of events that it throws at you i suppose.. but ur not wrong for thinking how u think was the point i was trying to make lol

I am very very sorry for you! But I think Tomiwa meant this for patience and discipline, it’s absolutely not about shifting your life🫶🏼

I prayed hard for a job at Tesla. Got the interview and it went exceptionally well but I wasn’t hired because of my previous contract work with a company that partners with them. I was so hurt behind this and didn’t understand why Allah wouldn’t want me to have a $22/he job that would solve all my worries and allow me to move out on my own, save and invest money etc. Yesterday, 15,000 got fired. It was him protecting me. I’m so grateful

I’m turning 25 in aug, and that rude awakening that you mentioned that the attention suddenly fades…living that now. And I’m constantly fighting the ‘comparison demon’. Coz i feel so behind, all my friends are working & living their best lives and I’m still at college and find myself breaking down more often lately. It feels good to hear this advice❤

I have a different take on this, I have noticed that the WRONG attention has faded as I’ve gotten older. It’s a quality over quantity thing for me. Guys look at me and say ”she seems mature and about her stuff,” so in return I have had less men without their stuff together try to get at me.

I think that it’s great to take advice from people in the position you want to be in but also great to listen to people who aren’t in the position you want/ who failed at something. They could warn you and tell you what went wrong, what they wish they could’ve done. This will help use avoid certain mistakes or do certain things to get where we need to go!

Everything happened exactly as it needed to and now you are in a position where you know better and have leveraged previous experience and mistakes to reshape your life and journey. You radiate spiritual growth and display that the lessons you share are rooted in divine purpose and intervention. You are blessed.

Videos like this remind me of why I love you so much I literally sat and watch the entire video. No skips no fast forwards and it really poured into me and spoke to me. This is coming from someone who is not Muslim, but is faith based I really enjoyed every single lesson. As I enter my 20s, I want to be intentional about every step of the way and this was a very enlightening video. Thank you so much. Love you lots.

Thank you for mentioning Palestine, Sudan, Congo, and Tigray in your description! Additionally, I really resonated with the "If you have faith you'll have higher self-esteem and confidence" part of the video. It's easy to become distracted which can lead to feelings of ungratefulness so I appreciate this comment because having blind faith and overall hope that things will get better is enough to keep me going to help others I meet who may need encouragement and also keep myself in a state of gratitude and grace.

3:55 ugh I LOOOOOOVE Tony Gaskins! Been watching him for years I kid you not. 😌💯 As we are the same age, I’ll add that I’ve shifted my perspective on nurturing my 20-something’s within my spiritual journey when realizing that we 20-something’s are being more encouraged to earn money to pay bills, splurge, have a car, be “independent”, etc. than we are to work on ourselves internally. That changed the trajectory of how I wanna spend my 20s under the roof of my parents’ home. Using the time to work on myself as a person, so it can be a contributor to how I pour into other areas of my life, rather than being worried about how “independent” I am or how I pay bills and still not having a healthy relationship with myself/people.

Videos like this make me depressing because my middle 20s were spent being harassed and stalked by evil and wicked neighbors. So imagine how much worse it is when your 20s are stolen from you rather than you wasting it of your own accord.

I always leave Tomiwa’s video feeling blessed❤. I turn 20 on February 22nd and unlike my previous birthdays, I have been having mixed feelings about this particular one. I always heard that life really starts at 20 and your decisions in your 20’s could make or mar you. This fear has literally made me so scared to turn 20 for the longest time. I have been watching so many videos on things to know in your 20’s and Tomiwa being a God sent uploaded a video at the right time and I somehow feel relieved especially after seeing how she addressed some of my fears. Thank you so much Tomiwa. Remain blessed in every way❤
