Thanks for your concern Suneel. I also have some back-up plans I assure you, offline ones. For example, me and my friends is running a small public speaking course, from zero. Because most ‘heroes’ always started from zero

I understand your motive. But, without a contingency plan to sustain when blogging fails miserably, we would be just like sitting ducks.

Bill Gates had a backup plan to go back to college if all else fails. And in his era, it would have been fine, because of hippies who often dropped out of colleges and then came back.

But, in this era, those kind of students are treated with obsolete disgrace by the employers.

What if I fail blogging? That’s the fear, fear of failing. In that part of the exercise, I suppose to remove my fear. In other words, it’s what I will do if I don’t fear anything, including failing.

In real world, some part of me do fear it, based on many considerations. That’s why I use this exercise to deal with my fear. Not to remove it, not to neglect it, but to face it.

Many people think Bill Gates was dumb when he stopped college just sit in front of his PC all day long. Look at him now, many years after he stopped college.

IMO, we don’t need backup plans, we need one single plan that works real good

“I would stop college and focus on blogging” I think this is a very dumb point Isaac.

A graduation is a must for everyone. What if you fail in blogging? U need to have some backup plan too, right?

A college degree offers that kind of security when applying for jobs outside.

IMO.
