What triggers it? A lot of times it happens when I pursue things that I am good at but don't really like. I am talented at a bunch of things, and I have the ability to pursue them until my heart is not longer in it I fly off the chain. I start loathing like crazy.
I've been that way for as long as I can remember. Even when I was younger and I played ball we had a group of the 3 best players, but I was like the black sheep. The other 2 were stuck along with the coaches trying to control me so I didn't get kicked off the team, especially towards the end of the seasons when I would decide that I needed something new.
Same thing in college. I usually get one teacher every semester that pulls me aside and tries to figure me out. I have heard things like, "You are one of the most peculiar students I have ever seen" and "Your mind works in a way that most don't" and this is at one of the largest Universities in America. I think they just aren't used to having students buck the trend so hard. I have never been able to just lie down and take the bullshit you are supposed to take in college. One professor actually suggested that I should just drop out of school to travel and write. I almost don't want to though. I've taken tests that say I am a creative genius, but I hate the discussion of writing as a trade. Writing is a coping mechanism. The people who fantasize about a quiet little nook where they can sit with a drink and a cigar while they pound out the next great American novel are all full of shit.
I totally agree that college is a horrible time for self betterment. However, I have grown a lot thanks to the Red Pill. I do look forward the post-college years though.
I am interested in knowing if anybody else is like this and how they make a living despite not being able to stay in any one place for too long.
