Oh yeah, of course! "Living with nature", I forgot about that one.

Aside from Lynda.come, ya' got: - Skillshare - Udemy - Coursera - Google - YouTube - More. . .

If I were you, I'd just keep going. . . how long have you been feeling this way exactly?

It's fine. It's cool.

I think that's pretty cool, actually. Hopefully worth the wait.

Sweet.

I don't post very often, let alone start topics asking for help. So when I do make one, you know I'm feeling very down about something. So just a quick background, I'm a 21-year old guy from the Philippines. I've been unemployed for a year. I've never had a job in my life. And I have received 5 different rejections after interview processes and some of my initial applications have just been outright ignored by multiple other companies. Too vague? alright. . . a little more specifics. I am a fresh grad with a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science. I am looking for either a Game Development position or just a regular Software Developer position would be nice. My main passions are Developing Games and Composing Electronic Music. And even without work, I work on personal projects by myself as a solo creator. I would consider Music to be my main life purpose. But right now, I'm don't feel that I'm that skilled at it yet. So I'm hoping to get a job as a Programmer in the short term because I feel it would be easier since I already have a degree in Computer Science and I have had a lot of practice with programming. I do have ideas in my mind why I've had these rejections in the past and what I need to improve. My resume originally sucked, it doesn't suck as bad now but I'm still working to improve how it's presented. I keep applying at companies I don't feel very passionate about but I can't help it because I feel very desperate to get employed. I find it hard to tell what exactly the company really wants so I keep fucking up the HR interviews despite passing the technical exams. Right now, I'm still living with my parents. They support me very well but not enough to allow me to able to construct the life I really want. I think that's what getting the salary for me is mostly about, being able to live independently from my parents because I've lived with them for 20+ years and I'm tired of their dysfunctional lifestyle. In summary: I need a hug

Very Stage Orange hating on Green

This is not a video. But I still think it's very relevant.

Sweet stuff, Man.

Why can't you use any other Windows DAW?

Man, this is nuts

Why not? In all seriousness, though. Meditation has been the greatest thing I've discovered so far. But you're not going to see it with out hundreds of hours of direct practice. Just do it.

@littleBIG Drop it. Drop the "benefits" chasing. Just do it.

@littleBIG As long as you do it, it counts.

@Leo Gura Obviously, I'm saying this in advance considering the circumstances. Hopefully, you actually read this before you start your month-long meditation challenge. May The Force guide you as you attempt to conquer the Dark Side.

HA! Brilliant!

He stopped touring because he got acute pancreatitis from excessive drinking.

Very good strategy here. But you need to be thinking less about money. You've got much bigger fish to fry.

@littleBIG Ha! Been there before. I know how it feels. It will pass but it will take a lot of inner work and contemplation about what happened. Bottomline is, you have to accept that people tend to underestimate how closed-minded they actually are. If they're wrong, it's up to them to realize their ignorance on their own. Don't waste your time trying to force them to see truth. Some practical guidelines: If it's on the internet. Try not to talk to them again, ever. Debating and Arguing is addictive, and also a waste of time Be more understanding as to why people cling to their beliefs Self-Reflect. Especially in regards to your knee-jerk emotional reactions

Hey, at least your not unemployed anymore like I still am. But perhaps the problem is that being a Sales Manager does not really give you the kind of work that you enjoy and can be passionate about. You know, just a thought. P.S. If it's not too much to ask, how long were you unemployed exactly?
