Mike, I don’t think you understand how much I relate to this. I’ve been wanting to take the step to defy what society portrays as “living a good life” and I’ve struggled to find out what I truly want. I’m in the same situation right now, where both my parents are so supportive and I’m living an amazing life as an 18 year old studying at UofT but I just don’t see the benefits that everyone is portraying in becoming a doctor. The prestige is nice and all, but I think it’s just not worth the pain, and I think that in 10 years (if I follow the same path you followed to becoming a doctor), I will be in the exact same miserable position. You’ve shifted my mindset Matt, I truly thank you. I will keep working hard to get top grades, it is not that difficult at the end of the day, you just follow a set of footprints that others have paved before you. But I will 100% make it a priority to start something on the side. Hopefully one day I’ll see enough success to opt out of the system and be an entrepreneur like yourself and your brother.
appreciate you sharing your story too. i totally feel you and if you can come to an understanding for yourself earlier that’s awesome. happy to help steer your course! what are you working on otherwise?
Mike, i got the news letter in my email about this, and it resonated greatly with me! I'm pretty sure this is probably in your book as well, but this principle i wish i knew when i was younger! The part that hit home in summary was that as long as i'm working for someone or under conditions that i don't control, i will not get the satisfaction of true freedom. Dont get me wrong, working for a great boss under great conditons is awesome, and i believe a lot of Americans would do a 40-year career if so, but there is nothing like driving your own ship. Thank you again!
