“A man who chases two rabbits, catches neither”

Who would’ve ever thought I’d create a tumblr? It’s not bad though since it’s a nice blogging tool. I’ll be using this until I create my own spot.  I’ve come to that point in life where I must begin making sacrifices for my future. I would like to become wealthy and free, but that requires me to make first world sacrifices like delaying the Porsche that I’ve been wanting. I’m just happy to be at a point in my life where this is a problem; having to choose between the nice car now or the wealthy life later. Five years ago, I was getting ready to move to San Francisco to do undergrad, after being rejected from all my schools and going through a rough ride in community college. Now, I’ve shown my worth and can apply for my company of choice.  I should take Khoi out for dinner for getting me my first job... I want to keep jumping at every opportunity that is provided to me, but my past mistakes have shown me that “A man who chases two rabbits, catches neither”. I want to work a second job and get extra money on the side, but I need to become a master at my first job. I know that I cannot stretch myself thin like I did in community college.  It’s tough... I know what the right answer is, but as someone who is optimistic in life, it’s difficult to say no. If I continue to practice the suppression of temptation, I will master this habit and have no problem in the future. Then, when I become good at what I do, I can chase more opportunities. Until then, I’ll be reading books; my favorite.  Good night, Thomas.  You’re doing great.
