Episode 34 of How To Twenty-Something dives into the need to slow down, practice patience, and learn to love delayed gratification. The episode emphasizes the impact of immediate gratification on our expectations and discusses the role of patience in various aspects of life, such as personal development, relationships, and career. I share personal experiences and examples, including stories from fitness training and career coaching. I conclude the episode by highlighting the positive effects of patience on mental health and well-being and encourage listeners to slow down, appreciate the journey, and stay focused on long-term goals.

Key Takeaways:

• You have to teach your brain to unlearn the immediacy of life
• The big things in life take time to develop: relationships, health, finances, etc
• Impulsivity will pull you further from your goals, even if you see some results right away
• Going into something too fast increases your likelihood of failing or falling off
• Slowing down helps you build on better habits for long term results and success
