My hand is shaking as I type this.
I received a DM from a 20-year-old. He says that he is suicidal.
The reason? He has spent a lot of time into coding but he isn't able to keep up with the talented devs around him (esp. those who are younger than him).
Speaking to him on phone revealed more about his situation. He says that he *feels* that he is below average. Apparently, he doesn't want to have friends & a social life because he thinks that he will waste his time there.

Not to sound old but you folks remind me of my younger self.
Tips I would give to my younger self:
• Building a tool and building a business are two different things. Don't get confused.
• Do it for fun, don't stress about the outcome, the dots will somewhere connect.

• Try to stay away from status quo.
Your young age isn't a medal; your Twitter followers isn't a trophy. It's not a race. Don't let the early success bite you back. There is a long way to go. Be humble and kind. Be open to new ideas.
3/n
