Anonymous asked: So you give advice about working hard for your goals and such, but you never had a job? And now you're telling everyone that they shouldn't be lazy and find a job? And you're in college and JUST got a first job? Interesting. I think I'd rather take these 'motivational insights' from someone that has some more credibility.

You need a job to start setting and achieving goals? And was I really telling EVERYONE that they shouldn’t be lazy and find a job? Maybe you should re-read my post. I just targeted those people who just make excuses all day saying that they can’t find a job anywhere, when the reality is that they’re not willing to get off their butts and go through enough rejection to find a job. Haha, college and first job? So? What does that have to deal with anything? Is ‘credibility’ based on jobs and college status nowadays? Honestly, you don’t even know me enough to judge. College and jobs doesn’t determine credibility. But you probably didn’t know that because you’re accustomed to that age old advice. But I don’t blame you because I was in your place too back in the day when I didn’t know anything but “go to school, get good grades, and get a ‘good paying job’.” Trust me, there’s so much more that life can offer than just going to school, getting a job, and living paycheck to paycheck.. If you knew what I knew, and knew what I was going to do with the income I’m making at my job, you would understand. But that isn’t the case. And aren’t my ‘motivational insights’ common sense anyways? Whether or not I do have ‘credibility?’ Shoot, my little brother could type those things up. And I promise you that there are people out there that would be mind blown and still be inspired from it. Lol.
