Becoming A Professional

[Phil King]

I have spent far too much time dabbling. Im a 23 year old two time college dropout with a string of dead end jobs. Ive done over 50 psychedelic trips and had crazzy awakenings, but im still broke with no gf and barely any friends. Ive dipped my toes in every area that has interested me, but not gone further than the shallow end of the pool. Im basically really bad at a lot of different things. Im starting this journal in an effort to change the trajectory of my life and focus on one area and become a master at that. 

After tons of searching, I realized that technology is the only area that can satisfy my intellectual and creative ambitions. I want to be a master inventor and work on cutting edge technology like robotics and AI to actually create real value for humanity. My previous artistic pursuits were done for vanities sake or to fulfill my desires of fame and money.

A couple months ago I went back to school and transferred to a local college and im studying computer science. I have about 1.5 years to get my skillset up and build a kickass portfolio that will attract job offers. Im gonna use this journal to track my progress on studying and projects and also use it to store inspiring or interesting vids. 

Ideally I would grind for at least 4-6hrs on CS work. Also want to keep up a spiritual practice so I want to do kriya yoga for at least an hour a day.

^^ This guy inspires me. He dropped out of highschool and originally wanted to be a poet. He took like 6 years to finish college and only in his last year did he realize that he wanted to pursue mathematics. 5 years later he got a Phd and then eventually got the highest honor of all mathematics. Anything is possible
