Really appreciate the pledge my friend! Means a lot to me. I probably won't turn it on until I find real reason to do behind the scenes stuff... My man!

I'm not quite sure I agree with the 1990s to 2000s comment because being a poor kid in the middle of the country ment no cell phones (I was 18 when my dad's hand me down finally reached me), no neighborhood activities, and little to no music (only the small CD/tape collection my parents had and the radio)!

I actually like the two pieces of advice and that's the path I'm on now! They say if you find work you're passionate about the money comes in as a second thought! Right now I'm telling recruiters: My desire is to explore positions over the next year or two that fit with the goal of determining my future life purpose dream job. I desire a job that not just anyone can do, that has significant impacts on improving the world.

I know you say we can't be anything we want or that that's bad advice but I found that to be true in my career and that I've held a wide variety of job functions and done other people's jobs that had nothing to do with mine just to make the workflow stop being bottlenecked. I fully believe I can be anything I want and have always had the mindset of looking at other people's jobs and being willing to perform them knowing I would do well!

Really appreciate this comment!

I believe those sayings without pragmatic context is why they fail in isolation.

Younger generations need to understand the pragmatic realities of the world around them.

Being USEFUL > being passionate.

Thanks for being here!
