Is it better to risk everything or stay on the safe side in life?
My parents think i'm spending all my time studying because i'm finishing college in May 2015. However, i'm actually spending most of my time developing my iphone app. This year i took it upon myself to teach myself to program in 3 languages. Now i'm almost done with my app. Long story short, if this app is not a success, i'm going to be screwed big time because I'm not in love with my major but i picked it because of pressure from my family. However, if by some odd chance my app is a success, i don't want to be a one hit wonder. Also, i don't want to stop now because i've come so far and worked so hard, everyday there's a new challenge that i think would be impossible for me to overcome, but at the end of the day, i do.
How does one know whether to take this huge risk with the app or just quit it, listen to my parents and continue with the degree that will make me hate myself for the rest of my life.
Safety OR risk. What's the correct path?
Added (1). My parents don't know anything about me learning to program or anything about this app. If they found out now, they'd tell me i'm wasting my time and tell me what i'm doing is stupid. They want me to get that degree no matter what. Everything in my life so far has been an utter failure. Been a very rough road for the past few years. I'm working myself like a dog to try and make this app a success but in the end, i don't know of the future.
You can do both.
Do what you love. Most people in life wake up everyday and hate their life, because they have to go to a job they hate. They might make good money, but what good is that if they can't live?
- They say to stay positive no matter what happens in life but how could I when I'm living with negative thinking people? Such as my parents. Which really can't be helped, they are really stubborn people. And I'm still a student, can't afford to live on my own yet. I wear airpods all the time to block out their negative energy. They moan about stuffs all the time
- My left eye hurts when I move it from side to side and up and down? I was on my iPhone last night at 11:00 pm, and I was reading a small print book for class today. When I move my left eye left and right and side to side to look at something, they hurt. I have pretty bad eyesight, an wear thick-ish classes. Is this because I was straining them or?
- Is there any risk in buying an unlocked iPhone? I'm out of contract with AT&T, with a 3Gs. My son tells me I should buy an unlocked 4s from a private party to preserve my unlimited data plan. Aside from taking the usual precautions for a high dollar private transaction, are there other concerns? If I walked into an Apple store with a question about using the phone, could they tell its status, and if so what could they do to me? Also, is unlocking a phone the same as jail-breaking it?
- Is there an app where I can put pictures side-by-side on an iPhone that ISN'T a collage? Just want to put two pictures side by side that go together, funny pictures that are squared. Just want to put them side by side or on top of each other, without making it a collage
