Sorry...another emo rant (a.k.a. What's My Line supposed to be?)

"The fastest way to become an old dog is to stop learning new tricks"

I wanted to keep this post separate from the last one since I tried to keep that one as positive as I could. I need to find something I'm good at which is also marketable/in demand. I've always been denying this fact, but I'm not worth shit to anyone outside of my family, friends (both furry and non-furry) and some of my co-workers. I'm never going to be able to live a good life by working part-time at two jobs with no real health insurance.

I'd like to learn something new to make a living, but I'm too afraid to risk losing money and being stuck with excess inventory in case I'm not successful. I failed miserably at the past business opportunities I tried because they required me to get my friends and family (who either had good jobs already or didn't fall for the sales pitch I did) to join under me.

I guess I'll try to figure something out when I get home.

I've alot of things I want to do. Become a member of the Texas Board of Education is at the top of the list... but I also want to do cosmetology and auto mechanics. Oh and refurbish my in laws old VW Karmen Ghia. =D Anyway, write down things that you like or something you're interested in and see if you can do anything from there. Talk to an advisor at the local community college or something. I feel confident that you can achieve this goal. I love that you've been doing toastmasters. I noticed when we met you seemed a bit shy and I think it's telling that you're willing to get up and give a speech. I'm quite proud. =) You're awesome and i admire your stick-to-it-ness!
