Second, take solace in what we spoke about yesterday. Things will turn around and you will be tremendously successful. However, luck does not happen. It is made. Keep building your network. Work like it all depends on you (because it does). Stand up for yourself. Keep a positive outlook - when possible. Be relentless in focusing on your main objectives and build a path to reach them. Get Strategic.

Third… take my advice regarding work and go get a job waiting tables. I guarantee you that once you relieve the financial stress with a good income, you will start to find success in those those things that are important to you. (Plus you may find a hot chick that digs the indie-film type and wants you to teach her all about really “understanding” cinema).

Finally… Sorry if this verbal spanking from your older brother is embarrasing to you, but hey… you are the one who decided to lay your next five years out there for everyone to see.

Love you.

I’m going to be down in NYC in like a day buying you burgers and shakes and watching looney tunes until you vomit all over the place. If you haven’t from Meredith’s comment already.

And I’ll clean up the vomit.

YEAH!

Then we can go to the park and I’ll teach you how to throw the karma boomerang properly because seriously what was Meredith talking about?
