Family constraints and Career

It has become more apparent and perhaps obvious now. Life will only keep increasing the constraints on you via family, day job (career) and health. So the sooner certain critical things are bolted down or accomplished and set in cruise control, the better.

I feel or estimate that I have dropped the ball on 5 good years of my life. Though many would say that’s nothing, I know it’s a lot. And each last year is a crucial year for the next few after it. And 5 younger years are expensive than 5 older.

I think I made some poor choices in education out of sheer ignorance or lack of understanding. I think this is probably because of a character or personality flaw. I am aware of it now, and know how to navigate it and with it.  However, the same flaws allowed me to make some good family choices. But both in aggregation only have increased my family commitments and constraints in total. Time is less and spread thin is the norm.

But I hope it won’t stop me but only strengthen.
