> Things I can change? I dunno. I lost a bunch of weight, I can now run a few miles, do pull ups. I've gotten better at talking to people. Maybe I should go into sales (laugh*.
Well, why not? The goal of life, if any, is probably more in line with being yourself and enjoying it while you can, not writing C++ code because that's what "real hackers" do, or whatever illusion you're using to punish yourself.
Seriously, losing a bunch of weight, running a few miles and doing pull ups are awesome things. Getting better at talking people is beyond awesome; it can be life-changing.
You got straight Fs because you're playing their game. You'll ace it when you start playing your game. And the best thing about life is that you get to define your game. That's the meta-bug you need to fix! :-)
