Invested in myself by doing things that scare the shit out of me - Around junior year of HS I realized I had nothing to lose (I was pure white trash, still am, really.) so if something looked impossible, I went for it. I wound up in an ivy leagueish college, worked my ass off, I starved, went out with beautiful girls, photocopied text books because I couldn't afford them, I drove an old porsche I found in a junkyard, went on tour with my band, went to europe with $80 in my pocket. Made a lot of mistakes, but god damn it was fun.
