I'm like 90% of the way there although I do have diagnosed ADHD which makes time management and organization difficult but not impossible.

Honestly, it was school that was hard to deal with. I was pretty messed up until I got out of college and got a career job. It's amazing what a fat paycheck, a good night's sleep, and not having to worry about differential equations homework does.

You never know what some people used to be like. I know a top tier defense attorney who used to be a heroin addict, and a company VP who was homeless for 3 years.

Yeah that’s the thing of taking a snapshot of a persons life.

this is what makes me pause and wonder if the person who originally posted that Reddit in the image was just observing through a fish lens of self comparison to another person, or if they actually talked with that person and that person really did claim all those things.
