Wasting your time twirling pen??
When I was growing up, all I ever heard was - “work hard, don’t waste your time on trivial things and you will be a success”….
As a nation we here our American education system is shot and that the Japanese have students who have no summers off and work long school days. This is why America is falling behind……..
Now I find out that video games could have made me a millionaire. That silly computer “nerdy” tech stuff could have made me the next bill gates. I also know that the Japanese culture plays more video games, online fantasy games and spends a lot of time trivial things - like perfecting the “art “ of twirling pens in their hands. I guess we were wrong……
Maybe I’ve learned one thing over the years of my life - I will never tell my children that something it too trivial or useless. It just may be the next big thing and they will be the next bill gates or Myspace, or who knows - millionaire champion pen twirler…………………
