This is a response to my rather negative post on societal expectations. This one is how to overcome them. I came up with this list while I was thinking about what is really important in life (kind of odd for an underemployed 23 year-old to do, huh?).

1. Invest in time above all else.

2. Invest in people instead of businesses

3. Focus on making value instead of making money

4. Invest in experiences rather than things.

5. Invest in yourself rather than on your outcomes.
