OP’s profile says he’s 63.
Some of his comments make me believe that. Talking about selling stuff to stupid people who like rap. You sound like my grandfather.
But your complete inability to realize you’re being naive, you sound like a 17 year old. You’re throwing temper tantrums like one too.
But what do I know?
I noticed you said complete. That adds a rather uncommon dimension to your descriptor.
I may be naive, ok - I'll rephrase that - I am naive...
I know I'm in that insane group of dreamers that really doesn't know any better of what to expect realistically. But, enough of those insane people do make it big, so the rest of us are excited enough to believe we can do it too...
But - with that said - I admit I am new, and I admit I am not chomping at the bit to jump in and work my butt off.
I guess maybe I am naive. I already knew that. I am okay with saying that, and I don't feel I have to defend that, or apologize for it.
I don't know where the temper tantrums remark came from. But, if it makes you feel superior, I will entertain that for you. Doesn't matter to me who the smartest one in the room is, and as you see from my comments quoted above, I admit it isn't me.
Glad I sound like your Grandfather. I am comfortable in my own skin as a Dad that has raised three confident, mature, and successful sons. And, as you already know, Dads usually are opinionated and experienced. That's a big part of what makes them role models. They also usually don't feel the need to conform just for the sake of being accepted into a group - a serious weakness of so many younger generation people. That's not an insult - that's just the way it is. We were all young and needed approval to stroke our growing egos at one time or another. It's called youth. And it's natural. But, some of us grow past that stage.
