@godblessed777 Straight A’s for high school homework don’t mean anything. All it means is that you easily remember things and can regurgitate them on a test. When you get to a job where you have to show up or you don’t get paid you will not have a good reputation. Doing well in high school means nothing to how well you’re going to do in the real world.
The guy I dated in high school was like this, I thought he was so cool. Know where he is now? He’s a fucking loser. No work ethic, not a good reputation, still living off of mommy and daddy and we’re in our mid 30’s.
School was a struggle for me and it taught me how to be creative in how I learn and the time it takes to get jobs done. I make twice what most my friends do and work amazing hours now. It’s not about book smarts, it’s about learning how to be an effective part of society.
You wanna half ass it? That’s fine, but you’re probably going to have money problems in low level jobs forever.
And it’s not even about your work or money, the people who hustle with their hobbies or side gigs and put the work into
something are the ones that have full lives, good friends, awesome adventures, all of it.
