I spent a lot of my twenties shedding away the things I liked in my teens trying to 'grow up'. Things like video games, anime, manga, toys and drawing. I regret it deeply now that I'm in my thirties and am working to re-embrace it. I've also never felt more grown up. Like what you like. Be you.

Honestly, doing these things and ‘being boring’ is going to get you to where you want to be. Want to be great? Have determination and grit to get there. Do the small things that add up. That compound. Be boring and look after you.
