"Control. Surround yourself with like minded people to share ideas. Try and meet a someone who is willing to motivate you to achieve your long term plans. Not a someone who lives for going out every weekend."

And another comment read:

"No one is coming to save you, and this includes your partner, friends, family or the government. Be your own hero."

One of the replies suggested that youngsters shouldn't be afraid to improve their matric certificate marks and get into an industry in high demand, rather than studying for years only to struggle to find a job later.

Take a look at what the other tweeps had advised under @AdvoBarryRoux's post:
