What are you confused for. It's all very clear! You just didn't put your sunglasses on to block out the matrix.

Yeah, you are right, f#ck confusion

Btw OP
You need to not brag about being fastlane in your business classes. You need to pick up your stuff and find a better teacher.
No one should be laughing and pointing like a brat, thinking "it will just come to me", you have to find your strength in the lows, and decide to be the better man, when it feels like you have no choice but to sell out, no choice cuz you'll starve etc.

Prancing around and verbalising successful platitudes and ideas just puts you on the chopping block for mediocrity because in a couple years you find out is that all you did was wish for it, and "now your chance is blown" cuz life caught up and made it so hard that you drop off.

Then you come back when you are 45 and divorced or something, with baggage, wondering how the hell you will ever make it through.


Don't RIDICULE what will become one of the HARDEST tests of your life.
Save up as much of your ability to be honest and serious as you can, cuz you need it to get through, and take all you ideas to the very end.

A good percentage of teachers can't break into the industry they want to be in..

So they end up teaching as a result. This isn't true for every teacher, but it does hold merit.

I wouldn't want to learn from someone teaching Entrepreneurship in college...

Why aren't they running their own business, it goes against being an entrepreneur.

I mean would you rather learn from Mark Cuban or some college teacher who "claims" they are an expert?

You want to learn from people in the real world, experiencing it daily, not teaching something average.

What might have worked years ago doesn't always work today.

Being an entrepreneur is an ever changing field of study. You can teach business skills, but you can't really teach the rest.

You know.. Motivation, drive, etc. Going to school to be an Entrepreneur? That's a mistake in itself.

I feel your pain. I'm on the same exact boat. The only reason I stay enrolled is because financially (with aid and such) it has worked out in my favor. The other alternatives are to work slowlane and pay rent to live somewhere, or move back in with my parents (toxic environment) - So i'll finish my bachelors and just take as little classes as possible until I graduate and spend my sparetime reading books and learning from real reputable sources, like TMF book, etc

I noticed this while I was in college, My professor's would have a job in the same field, teach on their off days, or nights at more than one college, and be going back to school to get a ph.d. thinking somehow that was going to get them where they wanted to be.
