RE: What career/Job should I do?

in #life7 years ago

Hey man, I'm a junior and I still don't really know what I want to do. Don't sweat it, and contrary to what other people might say, explore your passions, side hobbies and hustles. Make good investments in cryptocurrencies and other stocks, etfs. Continue to post content on Steemit in a niche and you will start to earn passive income as well as make good investments for your future. I am not too worried about my future because I have found the crypto community and this space that has so much potential to grow and so much profitability potential that we may live comfortably in a few years from now. Nonetheless, explore career areas as well that pique your interest. If you are highly highly passionate about something you will do a good job and be motivated to find opportunities. If you are not, your performance will suffer. Passion comes first, motivation follows.

Yeah I completely agree with that, but as i'm under 18 it's a lot harder to invest into things like crypto and stocks without others help witch is very frustrating, but i've still made a decent amount. Have you heard of Alan Watts I love this quote here:

"Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing than a long life spent in a miserable way. And after all, if you do really like what you’re doing, it doesn’t matter what it is, you can eventually turn it – you could eventually become a master of it. It’s the only way to become a master of something, to be really with it. And then you’ll be able to get a good fee for whatever it is."

Hey it's much better than a lot of other kids under 18 and it's a start. I'm turning 21 soon. Thank you for that quote, those are words to live by. To be honest, crypto and steemit, even though I am relatively new in this space as well as interacting with like minded people on discord has given me a lot of joy, happiness as well as motivation and passion. I love the decentralization that it is building and how its changing certain social, economic and professional standards. And I love the buzz, the learning. the trading, the worrying, the mania, the ups and downs that come with it. I am only now starting to truly open up my mind and pursue my interests without a damn for what others think or want me to do. And if I fail, fuck it, right? At least I'll fail following my passions rather than succeed following a system that I don't believe in.

Yeah exactly and this community seems really good, and every fail in my mind is a lesson so keep failing and eventually you'll get there 😂. I really do belive that steemit will take off, but i do question its sustainablity. Check out my new post I think you will like it.
