Default Re: Thinking of Dropping Out - My Plan

[ QUOTE ]
It's great if you love to party... Which I don't, too many people are alcohalics for me to even begin touching that [censored]. As for finding classes I like, since I'm a freshman I really cant take any of my core classes for at least another year.

I realize people just tell me "shut up and just do your studies." But since I was never challenged really in my life I find it extremely difficult setting goals to become a good student. In high school i never did homework and got good grades on tests. I do this in college now too, but since i am skipping 50% of my classes just out of laziness I feel like i'm just pissing away my money.

I know in my head I should just shut up and do it, but when it comes to it, I find something else to distract my time.

So for all of those people that say I should stay in college, what are some [censored] I can change that'll help me become more successful in college and get off my ass.

If you lack the discipline to grind a few classes, can you really expect to grind poker 8-12+ hours a day, 5+ days a week? Yes it's fun, and you obviously have a passion for the game, but grinding the tables, sweating the bankroll, it can take a toll. It's the hardest easy living to be made.

If you bust, what would you have to fall back on? You'd be dead broke and uneducated. You'd end up a 30 yr. old pizza delivery man. Not a pretty picture
