Received my college diploma today!

[nitroheadz28]

Here is what I think of it (not meant as an insult to anyone with a degree of course, read on):

My "enthusiasm" is not because it promotes a slowlane lifestyle or that I look down at the idea of getting a college education, but rather that my specific college experience was utterly miserable. For 4 long years my journey was filled with some of the poorest excuses of professors that I could even imagine on top of many other factors, granted it was my fault for attending this school. I had no other choices without moving or dorming (= debt), so I tried to make the best of it.

All in all I accomplished 2 goals I had before starting:

Get my engineering degree and learn a new skillset
Graduate without any debt (in fact more of a surplus since my grants covered everything and then some)

In retrospect I feel that apart from the specific engineering knowledge I've acquired, I've become less intelligent overall :bgh:.

Now is when I feel that my life has really begun. I've been educating myself aggressively through whatever means I can, and trying to find my path before I can commit to a specific venture (Finding this to be my greatest challenge at the moment. My idea muscle as James Altucher calls it needs more exercise, I welcome the process afterwards).

I would absolutely love to disprove the notion that engineers aren't fit for entrepreneurship. I need to stop trying to reinvent the wheel and just KISS- keep it super simple

PS- If anyone needs any input/ help on a design/ prototype feel free to PM me. Glad to help my fellow up and comers.
