Have you found your calling in life? What are you doing with yourself?
It's amazing how so many people in this world, who until their deathbed, have no clue what they want in life. That's wrong, I should reiterate. It's amazing how so many people in this world, who until their deathbed, merely change their goals and dreams to whatever suits them at the moment. As a child, they want to get out of school. Out of school, they merely want to graduate college. Graduate college, they merely want to find a job. Find a job, they merely want to be able to afford a house and find a spouse. Marriage and mortgage, they merely want a stable income. Etc. Confusing dreams with short-term goals. Are you one of these people?
Call me a bigot all you want, but I detest such behaviour. It sickens me. There's no purpose to your life. Normalcy and complacency contributes NOTHING to society other than the shifting of capital gain from one hand to another. Yet so many people do this. So many people live life without reason, acting merely on instinct. Why? Until now, I have not met a single person who can give me a confident answer on what they want to do with their life. NOT A ONE. Nobody I know is confident in what he / she will do in the future. It's always a "maybe". Always a "something like...". "I think I'll become a X but if that doesn't work out, I can always go for Y or Z". Maybe my list of friends is pathetic, or maybe I was unlucky to be born in a world of closet-minded simpletons, but this is extremely depressing. Similarly, when people change their majors in university / college after 3 years in that field, it completely blows my mind. I cannot understand such behaviour.
Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones then? One of the people who actually found their calling in life and knows what to do with it? I knew since I was in... what do you guys call it... Jr. High, primary school, that I will be a businessman. Always have had that goal in my heart. You can check my old school "What do you want to be when you grow up" surveys, if you could access them. I've always been a profiteer with scant morals, high risk tolerance, and a penchant for complete devilry. I'm not ashamed of it. I have no doubt that this is what I will be. In fact, this is what I am. I'm already on the road and will never stray so long as I live (I probably will never retire too).
But this leaves me with the problem. I can't understand the feelings, thoughts, or emotions of people who can't decide with what to do with themselves. Why? It's like being an anthropologist on Mars. So, if you find yourself hesitating when you ask yourself, "what do I want to be", please explain to me the emotions and quandries going through your head. Who knows, maybe you'd find your calling while writing out the thoughts in your mind.
