    The main motivation in my life is doing exactly the opposite of what I am supposed to do, and still having it work out for me. Sticking it to the man is really the most important thing you can do as a citizen.

      Financial security is actually pretty big on my list. I really hate worrying about money and wondering if I'll have enough to pay my rent the next month.

        This is probably why I was enevr attracted to marijuana (or any drug). I have never been high or drunk in my life. I just walk around like this all the time, I don't need to be stoned...

          Agreed. There is a definite balance between sticking it to the man and doing nothing. I do not support doing nothing (unless that is your ambition, in which case, move to the beach and chill).

          For me, whatever risk I take is worth the risk of utter failure. I would rather just repeatedly fail at doing it on my own terms than mail it in.

            I don't get the why part. What is your reason? There has to be something. You have never smoked or drank at all? Not even a puff or sip?

                I've read before people like that are control freaks, they have to be in complete control all the time so they dont drink or do drugs

                  I've heard that before too, and in fact remember one guy who said that that was his reasoning for never anything

                  I was just like, Well more for me.

                    All in all, Scientist, I hear what you're saying. I was more than happy to quit my job and to quit punching someone's time clock.

                    My hope is that in a few years I'll be successful at a number of things, all of which are projects of my own creation. I'd like to be a writer and filmmaker, as you know. I also have considered really buckling down when it comes to my bodybuilding interest and going for a personal trainer cert. And believe it or not, I even have an idea for a non-profit that I'd like to start.

                    I could see myself working for someone else and being fulfilled doing it though, provided that the work is in fact fulfilling and that I like the people I work for.

                      I am with you. The thing is, I am going to college to get a degree so I can get a job and basically do everything you are against. But as of now, I have no idea what I actually want to do with my life, so I am just trying to go do something I would "enjoy". But if 5 years down the road after getting that job, and I finally find something I want to do, I will actually pursue it. I basically look at it like this: I am only going to live once, so I am going to do what I want to do. I am not worried about going broke and all of that said...like you said, I am not going to starve to death.


                      That being said, if I end up with a kid and a wife and shit like that, I am probably fucked unless I have a wife with money.

                        I also have thought about getting into the film industry because I have always been interested in that type of stuff since I was a kid (well when I was younger). And going for a personal trainer certification is easy by the way. I haven't done it yet, but I am pretty sure to get a basic certification you just sign up to take a test, buy the book..and study. I believe to "make it big" as a trainer, you need to get a degree in shit related to it. And when you mean "buckling down for your bodybuilding", do you mean actually taking it 100% serious and doing a show?

                          Never. What I meant as far as the "why" is that I am already really laid back, like so much that it takes a lot people aback... I can be an opinionated prick on here, but I really am a live and let live sort of guy. I just flat out do not get wound up. LOL at me being a control freak. I am the opposite of a control freak... I totally just roll with the punches. The decision making process for my life has generally been whatever falls in my lap I will just sort of follow that... not a control freak at all. That said, I am extremely diligent about my life... no late payments, always fund retirement, I have never been in debt (I have never even had a credit card in my life), I stick to a schedule working out, etc. My kids are in bed at 730 every night, etc.

                          One other issue is that I come from a family of alcoholics and drug abusers. My brother is in prison, I have only met my father a handful of times but he is a drunk. I was raised in a religious home too, so I have always just stayed clean. I never really understood the attraction to alcohol or drugs at all. I was never even curious, and even now, I just think it is a giant waste of money and calories.

                            Sounds like a control freak to me.

                              I hear you. I don't know that I so much want to be "in the industry" as I want to make small, self-financed, but commercially successful films, but I definitely want (and plan) to make at least one film of some kind between now and the day I die. Will it be what I become known for? I don't know. But I want to do it for sure at least once.

                              That's it. The only thing is that for most of the ones I've looked at, it's about $500ish for the study materials, and I rarely have $500 laying around, just chilling and shit.

                              I also think that, if I could find one that's affordable, it might be nice to actually take a class of some sort. Not necessarily go for a degree, but do maybe a 6 week deal or something and have access to an actual instructor with some experience.

                              Buckling down. That really means a lot of things.

                              For one, I'd have to put more weight on. I've gained 40 pounds over the last few years. Some of it's muscle, and some of it's not. I'm about 160 and, I think, about 17% bodyfat right now, and really I would probably want to be 180ish and 10% BF or less to be where I want to be. So I need to put on more weight and then shred some fat. My guess is I'd probably need a year or so of serious training to hit my goal.

                              As for doing a show, I've actually considered it. Getting on stage in bikini shorts and fake tan and posing with a bunch of dudes has never appealed to me in a serious way, but I wouldn't rule out doing it at least once.

                              BTW, I said I wasn't going to do this and open myself to ridicule, but since we're on the subject, here's a pic I just snapped. I know I really need to work on my shoulders and I really need to cut some fat. Also, the pic makes me look bigger/thicker than I really am, but that's how pictures do, as I'm sure you know. Nevertheless, I at least feel that I have a decent foundation to build on.
