Can you do this for me?, a serious matter. Options

[verlorenrivets]

I had a discussion with my dad about networking, and it sparked something in my head. I have a few questions for anyone who reads this, if you don't mind.

1) What is your ambition in life?

2) What are you actually good at doing at this point in your life?

3) Do those things work well together on a personal level (or do those things work without other people being involved)?

4) How do you feel about someone else using you for your talents?

5) How do you feel about using someone else for their talents?

6) What kind of incentive would you need to use your talents for someone else's goals?

7) What kind of incentive do you think other people would need for them to use their talents for one of your goals?

8) After answering those questions, do you feel like you can accomplish your life's ambition alone?

music.

it'd be a bit awkward, but just as long as nobody gets hurt, i don't mind.

iffy. but just as long as they agree with it, and nothing bad comes out of it, it's okay.

6) What kind of incentive would you need to use your talents for someone else's goals?
how much they need to accomplish their goal and if it's honest and fair.

7) What kind of incentive do you think other people would need for them to use their talents for one of your goals?
