Since I got out of college, I have been trying to hustle through for growth and am finally running a funded startup now as founder/CTO. But last 6-7 years have just gone by damn fast. Always loved learning new stuff, but don't have enough time to really be immersive in anything. Now when I see an interesting problem in math/physics I can hardly give it an actual shot and it makes me very very sad deep down. Developing a strong desire to go back to college if this unhappiness continues, but has that really worked for anyone here?> PS: I tried the philosophy as per http://www.paulgraham.com/todo.html:
[x] "Don't ignore your dreams" => Doing it. Makes some part of a day to feel good... |
[?] "Don't work too much" => difficult to achieve in combo with above :( |
[?] "Say what you think" => Not easy as an introvert INTP, but learning |
[?] "Cultivate friendships" => Damn difficult to meet genuine folks after college (Would love any suggestions on where to find them... Definitely not facebook :/ ) |
[ ] "Be happy" => Nope. This is just not working...
