I'm stuck trying to find a job I Iove. Finished college last year and I'm still washing dishes..
What would you love to work on if money wouldn't be part of the equation?
What if money was no object?

I would write books ๐ and I have an idea for a website
Took a shower to think about this..
I love to bring people together, I love to teach and help others, I love to move.
I would love to work on bringing these things together, creating a place for people to recharge and connect on a deeper level. Creating a surf/skate shack as a basis for a community. Surfing effectively functioning as a Trojan horse to teach people about food, health and wealth while building a sustainable economy for the locals.
Sounds like a plan! A good first step might be to become a surfing instructor.
What are your skills?
Do you have a mentor? Someone you can bounce ideas off of and that will help you grow professionally.
I always find it difficult to describe my skills without feeling like I have to use hollow fiat CV speak but here's my honest try:
I'd say I'm analytically strong but never went deeper than applied thermodynamics and basic statistics, and, although I find both very fascinating, and have natural talent for it, I wouldn't be top of the class in those fields.
My main strong points are my presentation skills and my ability to convey new information, also, I am a quick learner and creative thinker. Linking new insights and information comes naturally and I enjoy thinking of ways to implement those thoughts. I function well in high stress situations and I'm very precise, maybe to the point of too much perfectionism. I've always been hesitant to actually move to 'doing'. It's not that I lack intrinsic motivation -I have immense motivation to dedicate my energy and human resources to Bitcoin- but I find it hard to make actual decisions based on the options I have in front of me.
As far as a mentor, I don't have one and I do feel that I need one. Right now, I'm reading and listening to people I find interesting and try to find guidance in that, but it is not a real substitute. I sometimes would discuss my curiousties and thoughts with my grandfather but not as I would with a mentor. However, he passed away in 2020. May God have his soul.
Your curiosity and ability to communicate will set you apart and ahead of most. Those are attributes that are sadly lacking in a lot of people.
Iโve mentored a few junior engineers throughout my career. If you ever want to bounce ideas off of someone feel free to DM me.
I worked at a surf camp in the kitchen last year. My surf journey is still a long way ahead of me before I could be an instructor. However, I don't know if I would enjoy teaching surfing. Surfing is time purely for me to connect to myself and the elements, not a 'job' by which it could lose it's magic. There is no better feeling than being alone in the ocean (or together alone).
Thank you very much for you're response though! The video inspired me to ask a whole lot more questions to myself today. Time to put nostr down for now and see what new seeds will sprout while I'm catching some sun rays.
I would design and help build any and all buildings or structures that I would like.
Aqueducts, Jacuzzi, pools, and stuff like that would be excellent!!! Saving up!!!! ๐ค๐ฝ๐ค๐ฝ๐ค๐ฝ๐ฏ๐๐ฝ๐ป๐ค๐ฝ๐๐ฝ

Thanks, I will definitely shoot you a message! In the meantime I'll keep my eyes open for career opportunities. Talking about that, anyone already created a linkedin like terminal for nostr? #workstr anyone?
I'm yet to find it. I know I will
