Someone once asked...
Someone answered with kindness...
A man in his fifties once told me he felt like he was starting his real life late, after years spent on things he no longer valued. I asked him behind whom, exactly. He listed names. People from school, people online, people he barely knew anymore. There is no universal finish line you're behind on. There's only the specific, private work of your one life, running on a clock nobody else can see or set for you. "Behind" only exists if you agree to race against people who were never running your course.

Your life is a story, tell the best one you can. There's no ahead or behind
Another soul answered...
Everyone goes through life at their own pace/ Don't compare yourself to others, the only regret you should have is not taking those advantages and opportunities. Work / keep working, and see if you can climb the ranks or seek more beneficial opportunities.
