RE: Masculinity. What do we have to say?
Oh great piece there - I enjoyed reading that! Was it the job that depressed you? Or something else? You're also right in the sense that once I found a focus in life I started coping with my depression a bit better. It wasn't an immediate cure, but the focus really helped :)
Glad you enjoyed it. I just wanted to start the wheels rolling in the comments section. Yes, the job was part of the struggle. When we are driven we can become good at about anything. Yet, we can not become satisfied in just anything. I watched too many a man in my life settle for a job that paid the bills. They never really lived. So happy to be doing what I love now and working from home at the same time. It is a bonus to have found steemit recently.
Same - I keep saying to everyone to not settle! To not settle for mediocrity and stagnation. When I was first made unemployed I kept saying to those that held their opinions high - no, I will not shelf stack in Asda to bide my time. I have more to offer than that - and it truly paid off.
And some people say that they can't possibly go for what matters because of their circumstances, but when I probe into their life achieving their dreams would mean sacrifice and they aren't willing to do it.
Swear we are our own worst enemies lol
