Clinical psychologist Dr. Meg Jay joins us tomorrow at 10 a.m. to talk about her new book "The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter -- and How to Make the Most of Them Now." She said in USA Today, people in their twenties "need to learn how to be more future-oriented. If you ever want to change something about yourself, your 20s are your best shot."

In short, she says that the slower path to adulthood is not better.

What do you think?
