Did you ever think you were awesome?Β π€¦
Not the kind of awesome that you are by being here right now on a platform that could change the future, but the kind of awesome that is egotistical and offensive to almost everyone forced to be in your presence. When I was younger, an ooze of pretentious entitlement leaked from my pores that frankly, I"m offended by when I see it in others now. I used to think I was awesome.
Did it come from Star Wars?
Who was your favorite Star Wars character growing up?
Mine was Luke.
A simple farm boy that accidentally discovered he was the most important person in the universe (kind of).
I thought maybe I was the most important person in the universe. I thought somehow I could change the world. I thought war and lying were stupid, and if we all just told the truth there would be peace.Β
I was an idiot
I was so naive. The world should work like an easily figureoutable (I probably spelled like this back then too) board game, or video game.Β
As I grew up I finally realized that maybe I didn't know everything. I began the process of learning things on my own.Β
Before there was google and a phone with access to all of the information in the world in your pocket, I studied using mostly books, video tapes, and real world practice.
I learned...
π΅ Music theoryΒ
πΈ How to play guitar
π Performing (in a band and from theater)
π Audio Production
βοΈ How to write (this was mostly from school)
π₯οΈ Β Some computer coding (mostly on a TI-82 graphic calculator)
When the internet finally showed up, I learned a small amount of...
π Physics andΒ
π¬ Quantum physics
π§ Meditation, spirituality andΒ
πͺ Diet and excersize
and more recently...
π Baking
ποΈ Voiceover
π· Basic photography
πΉ Video and photo editing
π€³ ...and a little marketing and personal branding
and more importantly about...
Steem and other blockchain technologies, of which I have zero stake in (at the moment).
Also, I love coffee.
β
Follow me to learn more about my journey on how we can use our cumulative skills together to make the world a better place.Β
P.S.
maybe Luke is the center of the universeΒ
I love Star Wars and look forward to giving you a full report of the new episode.

Great intro post and welcome to Steemit! I think we all start life with a fair amount of self-grandeur but as we get older we realise there is more to life than ourselves. Congrats on figuring that out within yourself as many people don't lol. Learning is such a huge part of life, never stop! :)
