To be blunt, I think it's the wrong kind of attitude toward school. You focused too much on the end result, getting the degree, rather than enjoying the journey, the learning and the obtaining of knowledge. It shouldn't matter whether it's 8 months or 14 months, as long as you learned during those time. As far as creating your own software company, it sounds like you are looking for the fantasy of entrepreneurship than building products. You don't need a company to build products. You could start building even in school. Really, forget creating company, wife, or getting rich, just focus on building a MVP. And enjoy it along the way. The rest will come.
- myth2018 8y agoThanks for sharing this. I agree with you and wish I were aware of that three years ago. I think that the biggest lesson I can draw from all of this storm is not to focus too much on the end result, specially when working on long-term projects.
- Mirioron 8y agoThe problem is that for some (many?) people none of what you mentioned is ever going to be enjoyable. For some, studying and work will always be a negative thing that that simply have to do. I think having goals for people like that is the only way to actually continue doing things. There is no end to work, so if you don't enjoy it it'll seem hopeless to even try. At least this has been my personal experience.
