Indeed, but I really shouldnt have added the part about snickering at college graduates. I'm looking to go back to school now, after thinking about Journalism I just decided it was silly, I'd much rather get a degree in Metallurgy, I'm pretty sure I could line up some writing gigs AND be that insanely smart/talented welder that you call when you have to say, repair a MRI core....while its filled with the liquid helium they use to cool the fucker. Yah, I can fix that, just hand over your first born and I'll get right on it

Education is good, but the bottom line is if you wanna make great bank you have to be able to DO something. A lot of people are just good at going to school, ask them to apply it and they get this look on their face, you know that look, its the "did I just make a doodie in my pants?" look.



I used to think the same way, until I realized if I wanted to succeed at whatever I was endeavoring to do, all I had to do was get out of my own way. Lean the bike over a little more, the tires will hold, and voila, the tires grip like pencil rubber and the panties just fly off the girls. Yes I can hit that tagret, why not? Whats really the difference between 50 and 75 yards? Line up the sights, exhale 1/4 and squeeze. Voila, the gong rings. Someone once told me that if you never consider giving up, if you never allow the though of failure to enter your mind, you won't. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other. I prolly sound like a condescending prick, but things are only as complicated as you allow them to be. But also remember that shit can, does, and will happen. Just keep your eye on the prize. I think that your trying to discover your ambition before throwing yourself into an academic setting is a good idea. Too many people go to school and say, well, I'll just take general stuff and I'll figure out what I want to do, thy just take more and more classes, all the while with no real goal, and before they know it they've fallen into some kind of degree that they never planned on getting and end up working a job that provides no real sense of purpose or fulfillment.

Keep your head up, keep on exploring. It'll come to you.


Just to stick my own two cents in, have you considered just opening up a computer repair shop? You seem to have enough knowledge, and there will always be idiots out there downloading porn with whatever the malware of the week is.

Just a thought. But heres another, what if you discovered the joy of your life, but it did'nt pay 50-75k? My cousin lives to teach, shit money but he doesnt care, because he feels fulfilled.

jesus christ I just wrote a pamphlet.

P.s.

1. Pay attention to detail.

2. Plan ahead.
