 I would call myself a professional failure. I fail at most things, and I fail constantly. Perhaps the only difference between me and most people is that I don’t revert back to the “normal,” the average, the safe, the mediocre. I keep on failin’. 
 I tried 9-5, thinking it was the "normal" thing to do. I failed at it miserably, quitting jobs after 3-4 months

I realised I'm just not cut out for the 5-day grind and gave it up

Now, I do gigs and am actually happy
