No one is going to pick you.
Pick yourself.

What I mean is if you are waiting on someone else to approve of your pursuit of your passions then you are losing time.
They aren't going to.
It feels good to be "approved of" and "given permission" because we gain confidence in others approval.
It's in our instincts to want to wait to get picked.

However, revolutionaries never wait.

The problem that you have the passion to solve is...guess what...still waiting for you to solve it.

What are you going to do about it?
