There are so many things we believe matter. There’s a computer game I play, a full motion video interactive experience and many of the characters are German.
It always reminds me of when I studied German at school and the teacher pulled me aside to tell me, “Martin, if you really revise, you can get an A!” Even at the time, it didn’t particularly bother me and now, I realise it doesn’t matter at all.
Much of what we learn is pointless, no, really. All those maths lessons you poured over and learning dates and events of so-called history, continental shift in Geography, how much of it have you actually used or has proved to bolster you as a human being?
That’s right, very little.
What matters, you’ll release as you get older, is integrity, being true to your own path, understanding there are so many more ways of achieving your most heartfelt desires other than the prescribed method.
Just, as I often say, keep going. There’s still plenty of time AND you can still win!
