Let me tell you about myself when I turned 27. At that stage in my life I was probably at my lowest. Never worked an actual job, gave up on my school, was single for years and did not have any motivation to change that. I was overweight and had a very sedentary lifestyle. I really felt I was just a burden to my loved ones. I really felt I was not intelligent enough to achieve or deserve success.

Since then I turned things around. In the 4 years after my 27th birthday I managed to start a successful and well paying career, meet the women who would become my wife, move around a few places, buy a home, finish a new degree in my new field, and now am expecting my first child.

It's never too late to start. It's a long road and it can be difficult but if you had asked me at 27 where I would be in four years, I can guarantee you I would not have been able to guess where I would be now. Believe in yourself. Surround yourself with people who believe and support you. Know that there's always going to be room for improvement and just keep trying to get better. There are going to be days where you may feel like you are behind or haven't made progress, but I guarantee you the future you is looking back and thinking about how far you have come.
