  • It took me about 7 years to be good at my trade. I was really bad. It did not come easily. It was a nightmare, and seeing guys with less experience than me pick it up way faster than me was demolishing for my self esteem. But I kept at it, decided I was in too deep to quit and I liked it, picked up way more hours and held my head above water. Now I’m the best carpenter I know and own my own contracting company.

    It sucks being a slow learner, but if you want it bad enough you can have it man.


















  • You can still find thrills. You just have to be more willing to take risks. I personally started exercising more, started my own construction business which is stressful and exciting, started jogging absolutely everywhere that I didn’t have to drive for. It also helps that I keep a decent float of alcohol in my system every time I don’t have to drive anywhere or be available for work. It keeps things exciting.
