The Little Things in Life...
Hi, my name is Tyler, I'm gonna give a brief explanation of my life that will later follow into a whole story of the things I deal with in my life. Since graduating high school, life as really smacked me in the face without even giving me a heads up. I never knew that you really had to work for the things you want if you want them or need them. For example, almost everyone in high school lives a carefree life with barely any worries in the world other than trying to pass the next quarter. Me and my friends would fuck around and cheat off of each other while pretty much letting the one friend do all the work and getting full credit for it. Those were the days me and my friends still latch onto, while constantly reminding each other of stupid funny memories we had in class. I can remember this one teacher I had named Mr. Reinard who would teach all the science classes along with another teacher we had named Mrs. Flanagan; I'll get to her later. Anyway Mr. Reinard was a soft-spoken man who really never put his foot down when it came to getting the class under control, he would often get made fun off cause he was heavy set, students even assumed he was gay for the hand gestures he made and the way he spoke. Mostly, no one cared, but it just happened that a friend of mine found him on a gay dating app and of course, that got around like wildfire. Even some of the students would go up to him and ask if he was gay, which I thought was funny as hell, but of course, he found it to be an invasion of privacy and got offended for even being asked. But this one particular time when he was teaching, a girl in our class had her phone out and sat in the first row near the whiteboard and Mr. Reinar, of course, scolded her.

Why I Chose a Creative Path
Damn. Where do I start? At what point should I start? I just want to say first of all that pursuing a creative career is so damn hard, hella hard. WTF, why is it so hard, hard? Everyone and their moms appreciate art, a well written article and good design, but damn, why is it so tough for artists, creatives, writers, and designers to make a good steady living? I just feel like it’s a never ending battle, until... of course, you meet that one person that will give you a shot. See your potential, see the possibilities of growth if they decide to give you that shot.

The 10 Best Sports Scholarships in America
For any student athlete, there is arguably no higher honor than receiving a sports scholarship to a prestigious institution. As a former student athlete myself, I can attest to this. Unfortunately, as a 5'9" offensive guard for my varsity football team, this feat was not quite attainable. There is a certain degree of physical gifts one can be blessed with, and unfortunately for a stocky, undersized linemen like myself, I didn't get many.

What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, or so they say. However, what they don't teach you in school is how many mistakes you are bound to make when you enter into the real world. They prepare you for the next class, then the next, with little to no knowledge on what comes after you finish school. To be completely honest, not everyone is even cut out for continuing their education. Some of us launch straight into a job field after we graduate high school, ultimately skipping a post secondary education. Though some of the students in question achieve their own goals just as well as the next person, most jobs with favorable benefits and pay require a college degree.

Your Business Must Be Unique (Especially Online)
Since I was 16 years old, I've searched the internet in hopes of finding a breakthrough idea that can become my dream career. I remember reading a blog about how people make money talking about anything they have a passion for. I also read about creating Shopify stores with various niches to choose from. It all sounded awesome and since then I've wanted to create a successful online business. A little after I turned 20 years old, I decided to dropout of college to pursue my dream business. I got a job and raised money to start my online Shopify store, which has cost me a lot of money. Though it is not succeeding, it has taught me a lot about online businesses. I know my mistakes now and I now know how to succeed online (I will talk more about my actual online successes in future stories, this one is more about what to avoid).
