Since I have recently finished uni and turned
21 I've been thinking whether or not I should live somewhat of a degenerate lifestyle or focus fully on my goals and religious beliefs for my early 20s. Uni taught me I can't really balance these things because one usually ends up pulling me in and it's usually being a degenerate; parties, clubs, girls, etc. I find that it's such a waist of time but when I try and avoid it I feel left out since l'm so young, and on top of this l've been feeling guilty for ignoring Christianity. I feel as if I should shut myself off from degeneracy and social media nonsense even though that's what most of my friends are involved in and dedicate my 20s for completely focusing on mostly work, healthy lifestyle, exercise, being alone (not being lonely just talking to people less), etc.
I want a stable financial income and to be self employed within the next 5 years and for me personally i don't see that happening if I don’t quit all my bad habits and go on monk mode for a couple of years. Everyone I know in my life who's very successful has had to sacrifice a lot with minimal balance, such as time, social life and relationships. Is it worth it?
