Decipline your body, decipline your mind, set a goal, and fight for it.

OP i know where youre coming from. ive felt like that since i was 13-14. ive gotten into music quite a lot but depression just pushed that, all my other interests, and friends away. and after all these years i still get real depressed. so it seems as if theres no hope for me. i dont know how to be happy. so im saving up money and plan on living out of my van and traveling the country. it sounds crazy. but isnt that the point? youre bored dude. just like me. but how can you be bored when you never have a set schedule? or have the ability to live practically anywhere. do anything. meet any random/cool people you want to meet?

think about it man. i know thats my calling and im going to do it.

If you take the time to read this, I appreciate it

I feel like I have no skills, no purpose. I know a lot about everything, I'm a smart kid, but I don't really have any skills.

All my life I've gone through shit, my parents got divorced when I was young (dad cheated), my mom got remarried twice, I had to deal with the first husband cheating on my mom when I was still young. My mom decided to get married again when I was about to be a teenager, put almost zero thought into it, and rushed it. It felt like I saw this dude and then all of a sudden he was married to my mom. long story short this guy and his family's genetics are pretty fucked, his daughter threatened to kill my mom, his young son is a drama queen with an underdeveloped mind.

As a result my mom has attempted to make my life as easy as possible, even though I still felt the pressures and saw what was going on. I developed a very compassionate and all-encompassing view of the world, I see all sides, but I also became very impartial and apathetic.

I was never encouraged to find potential in something, everything that I pursued were usually because of what my mom wanted me to do (i.e boy scouts, trumpet, ect.) and because of that I learned to half ass because I didn't fully care.

I learned no skills, I wasn't with my dad enough to learn his trade and work ethic. I played the computer a lot when I was little, that's how I escaped my world. For years that's what my life was about, but now I pretty much hate video games.

Nothing I do seems to hold interest. I get interested in something, read about it, but when I start diving into it I find that my interest drops and I never really get anywhere.

So now here I am, about to turn 19 and I have no experience. Those around me have had something they wanted to do, or was pressed upon them early. My buddy is in a band playing sax and draws really well, he lives with his band in a different city. Meanwhile I'm stuck going to college living at the same house with my mom.

It pains me to see people with hobbys they are good at while I have none. Skateboarding, Djing, drawing, music, singing, acting, sports, ect.

My interest in everything is medicore, I try to succeed in school but something always comes along and pushes my grade down. I'm in the top 5% ACT in the nation, but my grades barely push 2.5

Meanwhile my bad habits are taking over my life. I stay up too late, i can never go to sleep, as a result I always wake up late, I rarely eat breakfast, I stay in bed as late as possible because I don't want to leave. My grades have always lacked, so they naturally keep lacking. The same buddy mentioned above got me addicted to chew, and I try to stop but always end up buying a can a week later. I hate working, so I'm hesitant to get a job.

Everything I'm passionate about is frowned upon in society: weed, gambling, philosophy.

I'm a thinker, not a doer. I know a vast amount of information but I can't put it into practice. I can't find something that truly interests me, I see through everything and find the satire.

I just feel like I'm behind the pack, everybody is far more successful at what they do at this point than me.

I don't know what to do, I didn't know I needed a passion when I was younger and it feels like its getting too late to start every day.

I didn't know discipline was spelled like that. I always thought it was spelled 'des...'

Then take time to aquire skills. Learn things hands on. Make good food, learn carpentry, HVAC, anything. Do what you love though, thats the most important. If you arent happy waking up and going, dont do it, imo. Unless its hthat will get you to that occupation or postition in life..stepping stone so to speak.

All my life I've gone through shit, my parents got divorced when I was young (dad cheated), my mom got remarried twice, I had to deal with the first husband cheating on my mom when I was still young.

I developed a very compassionate and all-encompassing view of the world, I see all sides, but I also became very impartial and apathetic. It seems like you have done some introspective thinking and now its just time to correct what you feel holds you back. "We give it meaning when we take the chance.. Id rather life be a stumble then a graceful dance" Do you want the easy way out? or the blood, sweat, tears, and cold beer / feeling of accomplisment afterwards.

Knowledge is wealth

I was never encouraged to find potential in something, everything that I pursued were usually because of what my mom wanted me to do (i.e boy scouts, trumpet, ect.) and because of that I learned to half ass because I didn't fully care.

I learned no skills, I wasn't with my dad enough to learn his trade and work ethic. I played the computer a lot when I was little, that's how I escaped my world. For years that's what my life was about, but now I pretty much hate video games.

My interest in everything is medicore, I try to succeed in school but something always comes along and pushes my grade down. I'm in the top 5% ACT in the nation, but my grades barely push 2.5

What do you enjoy? What makes you smile, and truly not want to go to sleep at night, to continue doing? THATS what you make a hobby, or even occupation if you're lucky.

Meanwhile my bad habits are taking over my life. I stay up too late, i can never go to sleep, as a result I always wake up late, I rarely eat breakfast, I stay in bed as late as possible because I don't want to leave. My grades have always lacked, so they naturally keep lacking. The same buddy mentioned above got me addicted to chew, and I try to stop but always end up buying a can a week later.

You just have to suck it up and work towards what you want. If you lived on your own youd be working your ass off for every dollar, not giving a shit if its mcdonalds or a gas station. Money is money when you're hurting for bread.

Everything I'm passionate about is frowned upon in society: weed, gambling, philosophy.
Since when is gambling and philosophy frowned upon hahaha. You can be a dealer for black jack, or go to school studying philosophy. Get a student loan if its what you want.

Dont do what your mom wants, or what society deems acceptable. Do what makes you want ot get up every morning, and makes you feel apart of this "ball of confusion".
I'm a thinker, not a doer. I know a vast amount of information but I can't put it into practice. I can't find something that truly interests me, I see through everything and find the satire.

I just feel like I'm behind the pack, everybody is far more successful at what they do at this point than me. There will ALWAYS be someone better off then you, or worse off. Its up to you to make do with what you have, and use it to its full potential..
I don't know what to do, I didn't know I needed a passion when I was younger and it feels like its getting too late to start every day.Its never too late.

You want to major in philosophy? Do it, then--it's what I'm doing. With a degree in philosophy, you'll have one of the best BAs for pretty much any field of grad or professional school. After I get my philosophy degree, for example, I'm planning to hit up law school (Philosophy majors are consistently one of the highest performing majors on the LSAT).

That's another thing, I'm failing my history class that I already failed. It's kicking my ass. By this pace I won't graduate community college until like 2014

My father encouraged my little bro to do martial arts. I took classes back in the day with a world class fighter, it just wasn't my thing.

He said I was ''too flinchy''

ZihgZag · May 31, 2012

I still sit here not having any idea what to do with my life.

I have to wait to get a job because of weed in my system.

I have no special skills to work on. No job. Trying to get off drugs.

Everything just blows

Teaturtle · Jun 1, 2012

Well at least your humble about it, And ditto mofo.

Camgonzo · Jun 1, 2012

Behind every aspect of yourself you resent is a gift deep down inside. You just need to dig deeper into it
