I'be been sitting on this question not knowing how to reply because I genuinely do not consider myself a role model. Guys, be real here — I've so far in this life failed at every single traditional societal success marker. Whatever I'm doing, it's not working. Am I agentic? I have no idea. I am idiosyncratic and weird. I have a raw industriousness that can only be applied to stuff I care about. I have an information addiction. I can read extremely fast with above average recall. I'm not sure any of this is replicable or teachable. It is innate to who I am; born this way. I am no longer working full time, either. Maybe that's a point for me having agency. There's a whole backstory but the short of it: I got recruited for a corporate job and in the process realized I hated the path I was on in every way. All of it. From where I live to what jobs I'm eligible for. I want the next 30yr of my life to look different so they will. What do I have to lose? Like I said at the top, I've already failed so much.

I’m glad you had the awareness to realize you didn’t like the path you were on and the willpower to stop. It’s rare to find people who can pause, step back, and make a choice for themselves—without getting trapped in a sunk cost emotional fallacy. True autonomy means taking accountability for your own actions, and that’s something I really respect.

It took me many years of cowardice, anxiety, and anger
