Name: Thomas Age: 27 Country: USA Degree: None Interest: I suppose everything. How did I find myself here and why?: Do you wish to rise? Begin by descending. You plan a tower that will pierce the clouds? Lay first the foundation of humility. Saint Augustine I have spent the past year learning and mastering basic maths among other topics. To some I know it may not seem like much. But for me, it was the only thing standing in my way. One common theme history shows us is that adversity builds character. Any hurdle that is created in our paths becomes nothing more then a challenge. When you show dedication in overcoming these challenges, legends are born. But without dedication you're tying your own noose. A concept I wish I understood when I was younger. But its like I always say "a storm from a distance is a lot different then one right over head." So in hindsight of course I wish I had an overview of the events that unfolded in my past, who doesn't? Anyway, I am here because I need teachers. I have been able to learn a lot and do so rather well on my own. Thanks to the internet. However, I feel as though I am fumbling around in the dark and if someone could illuminate the path and offer up a little guidance in the right direction I could really expedite the process. I am not looking to be taught. But rather just be showed what to work on next. I am planning to enter college within the next few months to start working on a general ed associates. With intent to transfer that to a four year. However due to my lets just say my drugs,sex and rock n roll past I need to really shine. My past is a big part of my own personal challenges. But I am more then ready to put in countless hours to learning anything and everything. I won't be happy unless I achieve this. Failure in my eyes is a choice. I am also very interested in helping and meeting other people like myself. Who for one reason or another awoke a little late in life to their true potential. Or maybe its just a deep desire to not feel so overwhelmed in this increasingly complex world. Whatever the case may be. I am wanting to provide and exchange educational resources with other people as dumb as me =P. In hopes that we can enrich and becoming the master of our own lives. Looking forward to some meaningful and insightful conversations.
