Door-to-Door

Sometimes stuff just works out better if you seem like you dont give a crap. I think that I've been at so many job interviews that I just didn't care as much as I use to. Don't get me wrong to some extent I cared, but it wasn't going to end my world if I didn't get it. I think I perform much better that way. I use to be a sales guy and I went door to door, toughest job in the world. But it did teach me a lot. I learned not to care and that every customer was a good thing but not the most important thing. It taught me how to move on quickly. It taught me to give my best shot everytime. Come up with new strategies and take the brakes necessary to get focused again. It taught how to get over rejection and not get down on myself but to see a goal. You have to constantly have this goal in mind and not worry about these small things. I guess these are the lessons that always keep me going and keep me fighting in life these days.

OH SH*T I'M AN ADULT

A couple of years ago I had this revelation. I looked in the mirror and thought. I am 25 with a job and I pay my bills mostly on time. OH SH*T I'M AN ADULT. Fast forward to now and although I still am an adult I do not know what the F' I am doing. Comedian Joe Rogan has a bit about when we are young we think by the time we are adults we will have everything figured out. Little do we know is that the older we get the more lost we are. At least for me, I try to look like I have my stuff together but my life is one big rubberband ball. Complicated, many colors and it takes a lot of time to unwrap. I thought I would have everything together by now. But shit I dont have anything together. My mom called me the other day and reminded me that I was an adult and I should have my life setup.

Do we ever know what to do or do we just fake the funk and make up things as we go? Or is it just me...Is my growth being stunted? I wonder if these are age old questions or if I have too much time on my hands thinking about useless stuff.
