Wise words again, @wongi! Our way is not the same because I was poor from the beginning but nevetheless I made a similar experience. Still a few years ago I was more superficial, in case I got some money I immediately used it to buy some beauty products or having a good meal outside. Of course I was respobsible in a way, but didn't focus on personal growth so much, didn't invest the little money I earned.
Nowadays I focus more on improving myself: preparing and eating healthy food (instead of consuming fast food too often), doing my sports but also yoga and meditation regularly, learning new abilities (like for example chess - or in future also maths), trying to build a business... These inner values and long term aims are more important to me today than just trying to look good and please others.
This part I love. It's never too late to focus on becoming better versions of ourselves. I see all the hard work you put into becoming better (the part you let us see:) and one thing I can say is that you're an amazing person who can be very determined whenever she wants to be.
I believe you will absolutely enjoy this part, provided you have a good tutor. My secondary school teacher made me love the subject and till date, it's still one of my favourites.
