My career path

It seems like I'm going to have a tough time reaching my career goals. I didn't realize the magnitude of how tough it would actually be. My ex-gf is a freshman in college, and she does some part-time work or helping out for a congressman. She might not be on the staff, but since she can afford the time to do volunteer work or an internship, she'll more than likely get some good job in the future. I decided to focus on school entirely. I've been without a job for 4 years to solely dedicate to school. I haven't even been getting the best grades. My GPA is about a 2.5. This is probably horrible. Most companies won't even look at me I presume. Since I haven't done well, and I need to take some more classes, I figure that I will finish college in a year. So for the next school year, I have to get whatever job or internship program I can get into for this summer. I need to more my resume more geared towards business. I might have to join the CIA or some other government organization if I can't find a job in the corporate sector that's going to get me to the executive level that I want.

Or, I can go the tougher way. I have no money at all, so this is going to be really tough and might put me on the line for very bad credit. Maybe, just maybe, I should forget about school and decide to open my own business for now and finish school later on once I get a couple of years business experience that way I can go into a corporate position then.

The Way of the Superior Man

I just finished reading a book by David Dieda called The Way of the Superior Man. This is an amazing book for masculine men that are in relationships. In my opinion, it's an amazing book for life too. The basic premise is as follows: Find a major life purpose, and make that your priority. And, learn to love your woman and feminine energy from your core. That's it.

I have some issues though with the book. Sometimes I feel like I'm a masculine male, while at other times, I feel like I'm more feminine. With my ex, I think about her a lot, and I want love from her while she is the one that didn't want a relationship as much, or knows that she can find another fairly fast. I think overall that I'm a masculine male because I get turned on by the feminine, but at the same time, I'm a little bit effeminate. I'm not sure if I should dive more into the masculine side though. I do know that Dieda is right when he says that I will feel more attune with focusing on my greater life purpose. While he says that your woman is secondary to that, I feel like my girl should mean everything to me. The book basically does say that she should be everything to you but with your love, but understand that your life purpose is more important than her and that she will respect you for that.

Women have been a priority in my life for a long time. It's hard to see myself have less of a want for a relationship, but I'm starting to see that it is less of a desire when I'm focused on my life purpose, and for me, that's business and my business goals, like starting my own company, or being a corporate executive.

Is there anyone that didn't like the book? and why? If you enjoyed the book, how has it helped you?
