The biggest thing for you to realize is that you can absolutely do any of those things. But you can probably only do one or two of them. Spreading your efforts around is going to get you mediocre everything, which may be okay, but if you want to be truly excellent you need to focus and concentrate on what's important. Life is about prioritization. Somehow the message that "you can be anything you want" has gotten turned into "you can be everything you want" and that's just not realistic.
- jim_and_derrick 6y agoyeah the original comments seem kind of child-ish to me. In a good naive way. Maybe i'm being a doosh but that is how it reads to me. "Look i want to be a firefighter when i grow up, AND a policeman, AND a boat captain, AND a teacher, AND a 10x engineer. =) cheers all . look for small victories in life you dont have to solve world hunger to find satisfaction in your life.
- gjvc 6y agoThis is excellent common-sense advice the kind of which we all need to be reminded about from time to time.
