Why Am I Excruciatingly Fearful Of Failure?


I am a high-school junior and am afraid of failing everything I attempt, such as failing to discover my social niche in society, failing to develop meaningful relationships with others, failing academics and getting accepted into college, failing to achieve happiness etc. I try not to let my fear of failing everything prevent me from participating in life’s opportunities, yet when I do participate, I feel apprehensive and uneasy and unhappy. I don’t know what I want and, therefore, don’t know what to do and how to accomplish this ‘happiness’ that I so actively seek. (I can’t achieve such happiness because I don’t know what happiness really is. What am I seeking? What am I afraid of?) I want to evade this state of apprehension and fear of failing everything. I just don’t know how to go about doing this.

Is It Legal In The The State Of California For An Individual Student (or Group Of Students) To Sell Tickets…?


to an event that is neither school sponsored or affiliated? These students would be doing for individual profit. Can you direct me to the section of the California Education Code that states this is illegal/unethical.

Unemployed Web Developer Advice Required?


I’m 22, from the UK, I have nothing but high-school GCSEs (B-Cs) and some college education.I was recently made redundant from a retail job, due to the current economic state here in UK, I don’t believe I’ll be employed again any time soon.
I’m seeing being unemployed as a mixed blessing, I have little bills to pay, live at home with parent, so lots of spare time on my hand.
For the past 6-7 years I’ve been studying Web Development. I’ve become more than fluent in XHTML/CSS, javascript, PHP, Mysql relational database design, SEO, typography, regular expression, and lots of other stuff, I’m a master at none but >= fluent in them all 🙂
I’ve only ever built sites for fun or stupid things like blogs or messed about with APIs such as Facebook and Amazon, yet now I find I have an opportunity to make a hobby a job. Question is I have no experience as an entrepreneur except maybe marketing/SEO, so I do not know where to start, I have no niche site idea, haven’t got lots of cash to spend on marketing, no products… I have nothing to offer users but fancy blank pages… not exactly king content!
So where do I start? 🙂
Kind Regards
Mike

Nursing School Options…open To Any Advice?


I am 20 years old and i attended a cal state for 3 years and i was majoring in nursing. Overall i have okay grades, but considering how competitive nursing programs are i don’t think ill be able to get in. I feel that my application would be looked at , but i dont think ill actually get in. I currently applied to this school called “Chamberlain School of Nursing” and they have a 3year Bsn Program and I just found out i got accepted but I am not sure if i should go. I did my research and they are accredited but what bothers me is that they are affiliated with devry and I am not sure if thats where i want to go. I would really appreciate any advice! (I honestly cant see myself pursuing any other career that isnt in the medical field)

Am I Studying The Right Things In College?


I am majoring in Film, Video & Media Studies, and minoring in Advertising & Promotion and Global & International Studies.
I want to make movie trailers more than anything. That or working in the music industry somehow, preferably as a sound mixer or an A&R rep. I’m not exactly sure what to study for the latter so I figured Advertising would be good for making trailers and for being an A&R rep. And considering I’m from Michigan (A.K.A. the state that God created as a cruel joke), I’m going to have to move out of state at some point if I ever want a good job. My back-up plan is to work for the US Department of State in one of the US embassies around the world if I can’t get into the film or music industries, since they are so competitive, and all the people lucky enough to be from California or New York or other places like that will have had more exposure to opportunities to gain experience.
My question is is there something else you think I should be studying? I have an internship with the local CBS affiliate coming up, so hopefully that will help, but I don’t have a lot of faith. I just don’t want to be a failure.

If This Was The Start To A Book, Would You Keep Reading?


– Pro.
When I tell you, you will need to remember. It makes things easier for us that way. Now, it’s me and she and I and her and him and he and they and us. That’s it. That’s the story. At its simplest and most distilled state; packed and compressed. I’ve waved my hand in the clouded room; pushed away the smoke and steam, and have given you the one clear glimpse that you need. There it is, can’t you see it? The conclusion and the coup de grace, the finale and the resolution; sitting and waiting just right here for you. It’s me and she and I and her and him and he and they and us. So now that we’ve begun with the ending, let’s end with the beginning.
Feel it and let the hairs prickle up against the skin.
– 1
Feel it and let the hairs prickle up against the skin. It’s that cold: that chill that comes with a late autumn. With the sweeping and uneven winds that rattle at the trees and grab hold of the branches and leaves. It’s that molded smell, that composted earth and soiled air; the one that crackles and fizzles, sinks, and weighs down the tongue. Taste it. The untouched ground of a thousand years, the unchanging and melancholy of fields and valleys in rural New York; intruded on, defecated by, Hidden Hills. By the white walled, white speckled, white cuttings of its buildings, grounds, and people. This is the hospital. This is the prison. This is the Hell, that houses patient #91912844.
And the gilded light of an early morning contrasted the stark bite of the air. The resonance of snapping leaves; the wisps and curtails of cigarette smoke; the mild, almost hushed, chattering of teeth all did well to fit this morning niche. Her name was Dianus Romme. Her pace was slow and simple: dedicated but not purposeful.
These were her rounds; her routine. These were her grounds; her path. And her fingers trembled as she brought the cigarette to her mouth. With forced deliberation, she inhaled and masked her face with sheets of smoke. Beyond her, through a mesh of crossed wire, was the open and waving grass; the unrestricted and uncontained world. Delicately, she laced her fingers over the links; and pressed her palms to the fence. Her head rested against the post and she felt the soothing touch of metal. Her sighs fogged the air and, in a moment of weakness, closed her eyes and remembered.
