Anyone my age? (16)

[Orange]

I seem to be the youngest person i have talked to on this site so far. Is anyone else 16, or younger?

Try being the only 18 year old on a gerontology conference.

Ha yeah I think that kind of thing will happen to me soon theres lots of things Im interested in that noone i know my age is... there more interested in rolling down hills and things like that lol

Though, a word of advice from someone who walked his entire life in these shoes - try not to get too attached to the idea.

I was "the youngest guy" pretty much in every social circle I joined ever since I skipped two years of school when I was nine years old.

And now that I'm 19, and my social circles are starting to incorporate people who are younger than me, I'm starting to develop a bit of an identity crisis. I mean, that label was "me" all this time - it's what I identified as, it's what others identified me as. But now that it no longer applies to me, who am I?

Even more so, in a few more years my interests would become "normal" for my age and I won't even have that to feed my ego. Well, okay, my interests will never be "normal", but you get the point.

The feeling of letting go something that was a part of me (and was a huuge ego boost all these years) is a bit odd, but I guess I have to move on and find a new identity for myself now.

I don't know how common it is for minors to read/communicate on these forums, but you're not alone. I'm sixteen as well and I've been following Steve & Erins stuff for about a year or two now. A lot of the advice isn't practical or it doesn't apply too much at this age, but some of the lighter things are still fun to play with (such as lucid dreaming) and information never hurts.

hmm, but you still are able to say "I started doing that when i was 16" or somthing like that. knowing that that is differnt to most other people it might be eaiser for you to make the switch?

hello orange, I am 18 years old.

[abcZen]

I've recently turned 19, started my first company at 17 and flew to South Africa at 18 on my own and I've spent the last 7 months here

Didn't know one single person, best experience of my life. You are never too young to do anything

Hey, that's a great idea. Thanks for the thought!

You are my new idol.

[LexR]

Hey. I'm Lex. Turning 17. Normal person, nothing special.

I'm 16 and I consider myself a pioneer and revolutionary and I'm very proud of my age!

...Seriously though, we are so LUCKY to be the age we are and have the ability to access so much information, to reach out to other people, to create. The internet is a wonderful thing. I see you have a website. I think that's a great seed you have planted. I'm working on a website too, and I have some big plans.


We have so much potential. Even if we are just 16.

[javed]

I am 18.
Well, almost twice .................

[coLLege kid07]

Not to ruin the mood..but we don't really realise how little we know.

If you think you'll be a proclaimed millionaire by your 20's...you got something else coming lol.

Oh I'm 19 by the way/

[RTF671]

I'm 18. I've been following this for almost a year now.

If I have learned anything its that its never too young to start. And while we may never become millionaires we have the best chances of living out our lies and dying happy.
