Julius,

Thanks for your posting. The most succesfull people I have met in my live are also "softies". Sensitive people that care for oother are ussually moved into achieving extraordinary things. Nice motivational speech based on the events of real life.

Thanks
Elliot

Yes, thanks for posting.

Kind of sounds like me (not the millionaire part unfortunately) when I dropped out of college classes (more than once) and did stuff alot more interesting

. Its also why I'm doing CG now (with the 24/7 grind) instead of the 9-5 grind for some one else - but loving it as I'm now doing what I always wanted to do since I was in 8th grade.

If I had not followed my dream and/or dropped out of a lot of stupid/boreing classes/programs I'd be a mechanical engineer, environmental engineer, urban planner or a teacher. Now I'm doing CG and love it.

Gotta do what you love!
