Hello! It has been a minute. I've been busy living life, or a semblance of one at least. I've never been good at it honestly, but that is not the point I wanted to make today. The point I wanted to make, and this is mostly so that I can come back here and know it for my self, is that you gotta get back up. Every single person that has ever lived has had off days, or off weeks, or even off months. The point of it is that it is okay to have an off week. Your only responsibility within it is to not carry it with you. The name of this post is "Five Second Rule" because it is the same principle that is popular in baseball. No matter what happened five seconds ago, you have to deal with what's going on in front of you right now. I've failed assignments, I've missed deadlines, and for sure I've messed up relationships with people. But the point of it is that you learn from it if you can, and you move on. The only way these experiences are bad for you is if you hold onto them and let them drag you down.
Anyway now that I got that inspirational speech to myself over with, I just wanted to make a comment about the future of this blog and everything that goes with it. When I started this I just wanted a place where I could post my thoughts without worrying about if anybody cared if it was profitable or not. This stemmed out of the idea that any post I would make on social media would be hijacked by monetization in one way or another. This is a sentiment that has changed since then, but I think for the worse. As of recent I can only see myself as a consumer. I know the job market is tough right now, especially for what I am going into, but it feels nearly impossible to get a job. This has left me feeling that I only exist in this world to spend money, never being given the opportunity to produce any. For anyone that knows me, this should be a contradiction to my character. I don't give a shit about money so why do I want a job so much? Hell if I know.
Anyway I hope you guys are doing well. I'll talk to you soon.
