Dave,
Incredible story. I can feel your anguish. Perhaps your break-down in the middle of the forest on a cold day is your true FTE (not a FTM). Sounds like your brother's fire was his FTE.
Based on what you've written and admitted, it sounds like you quit when the going gets tough. When you encounter work that is not enjoyable, you quit. When something is boring or uninspiring, you quit. This is a prescription for failure.
Independence and success is rarely paved in feel-good actions. It involves discipline, sacrifice, and a lot of thankless, trivial work.
There are days when I still do work I can't stand. In fact, just today I need to review some legal contracts which in my book, is on par with having a root canal. BUT I STILL DO IT. Why? Because doing the hard work is never easy.
No worries man, you write very well. Impressive actually.

I'm not a writer and English isn't my first language but this came from the bottom of my heart and soul.
