“How do I become successful in life?”

I’m 20 years old, and I want to be successful in life. I don’t just mean money (although that’s part of it). I mean I want to feel proud of where I am, be good at what I do, and not feel lost or behind all the time.

The problem is, I have no idea where to start. I scroll through Instagram and see people my age starting businesses, traveling the world, becoming “influencers,” or already in their dream careers. Meanwhile, I’m just trying to figure out what I’m even good at.

Sometimes I feel motivated, and I try to make a plan, but then I get overwhelmed. Other times, I just shut down and waste hours on my phone. I don’t want to drift through my 20s and wake up one day feeling like I missed my chance.

What It’s Really Like to Live in Helsinki, Finland

I’ve lived in Helsinki for most of my adult life, after growing up in a smaller town in Eastern Finland. It’s not a perfect city, but it’s quietly wonderful in ways that can sneak up on you. You don’t necessarily fall in love with Helsinki at first sight — it’s not flashy or loud — but the longer you stay, the more it grows on you.

What It’s Like to Grow Up in Cuba

I was born in Havana in 1983, and I lived there for the first 26 years of my life. My story is one of contrasts—between pride and struggle, between collective unity and personal sacrifice. Cuba, for many of us, is a place of complex feelings. We weren’t always happy, but we always knew how to find joy. We weren’t always free, but we were always together. That duality defined my childhood.
