Unsugarized_Foo 06/13/19 9:28:26 AM #26:	Well,my father got cancer, passed away after a painful battle, had a rough go with jobs, and lost all financial security nets... I just kept working and trying to better myself with school and work experience. I got my bachelor's (which hasn't helped with jobs), got married, expecting a kid, and a decent job now. I had many 60+ hour weeks, deprived myself of being comfortable, and still doing that. Just get momentum working forward and keep it. It's rather easy after you start. Also have a really good counsler that doesn't sugar coat life. In short,get some grit.
