if Naval want to say something to his younger self, this is what he would say:
chill out
don't stress so much
live in the moment
everything will be fine
be more of yourself
don't try to do what you think society wants or needs
don't try to live up to other people's expectations
self actualize
say no to more things
protect your time because it's very precious.
on your dying day you will give everything you have for another day.
the discount rate / marginal value of that extra day goes higher as you get older.
less fear, more love
love people more
everyone wants to be loved, everyone needs to be deeply loved
it's not something you can buy, no amount of money can give you true unconditional love
you can give love, it's free to give
you don't necessarily get it, but if you just get in the mindset of "I'm just going to give it", eventually, on a long enough time scale, you get what you deserve
just work on yourself and be ready, and then good things will happen
