Life is too long to reject the opportunities in front of you every day.
Robots are the new middle class. And everyone else will either be an entrepreneur or a temp staffer.
Don't sweat it if you are stuck in the corporate job right now. But begin to plan ahead. I know from much personal experience that it takes 1-3 years to transition from total scratch to making a living from home in any career you want.
Life is a series of failures punctuated by brief successes.
I had ideas first, wealth second. It only worked in that order.
Honesty is about the scars. Its about the blemishes. But its more than just bragging about failure, which could be a form of ego. Its about truly helping people.
