Give Zero Effs

a reply to: Trachel

Dude I love this.


I started living this way about 6 years ago.

Best example I have is.... My whole life I have loved computers. I am self taught a few programing languages. I learned to build computers by buying the parts and googling. I broke and fixed my own computer more times than I can count.

I wanted this to be my career. Some college no degree. Everyone I talked to said no one will hire you without a degree. NO EEFFS given. I took a job selling computers at BB under the promise of when a geek squad job was open I would get it. Took a year but I got it. Once again was told no degree would get no further. After two years took a slightly better better job. Fast forward 5 years. I am a system admin for a fortune 50 company.

I gave no EFFS about what people said I couldn't do. I had a goal and wouldn't take no for an answer.

You need to write a book on this concept it has been life changing for me. I'll write the forward of it if let me.

Super glad you loved it, and I'm even happier that approach got you living your dreams.

I've actually written two books on the subject, and they'll be for sale in a couple months.

I might write a thread about them once they're hitting the market.

Also: good karma to you for supporting the cause!

Enjoy.
