Hey man, so sorry you have to go through that.

I read through some of the comments regarding the pain and I have to ask:

Would you ever consider going through assisted suicide?

I only ask because I saw when you wrote this:

The next thing to go is being able to breathe. Theres a chance that I won't physically be able to breathe and die from too much carbon dioxide build up in my lungs :/

To me that sounds incredibly scary and I certainly wouldn't be able to cope with that. Would you let nature do its thing or would you do the latter? Sorry for such a blunt question my man

This is so fucking inspirational man. Been struggling a lot mentally and this just gave me hope and a massive boost I never thought I had.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart <3

You guys have Special Constables over there?

We do too in the UK! They're volunteers, same powers as regular officers, patrolling the streets, investigating crime. Only thing Specials can't do is move onto taser courses or any other "advanced role".

There is however, a progression system within the Specials, Special Sergeant, Special Inspector etc.

Same for you guys? Except yours is purely just the campus, right?

Are you legally allowed to attend an incident outside the campus? What's the niche on that?

What other "powers" can you carry outside of the property you 'govern'?

Edit: I noticed in one of your replies you said you don't have the same use of force as regular officers? Could you expand upon that?

  • What's the limitations on your use of force?
  • Are there are exceptions to those limitations if you have to breach them?
  • Do you get paid? (UK specials don't, all purely voluntary with a minimum of 16 hours a month)
  • Do you carry taser? Weapon? Baton?
  • How common are arrests?
  • Are you allowed to search people/property? (ext. Use of force question)
  • How differently are you treated by staff/students? Seeing as you're probably recognisable and so are other specials to regular officers. Do the students tend to give you more grief? How differently do you (in general the specials) treat situations Vs your regular counterpart?

Sorry for all of the questions, genuinely intrigued. If you get around to a few would be much appreciated! 👍

Hi Bill,

What is the best solution for a young person (like myself) with a heavy entrepreneurial mindset but is consistently procrastinating?

A huge issue in society is procrastinating, I do it all of the time and it is my biggest hatred, my friends and family members all do it, I see coworkers holding things off.

It is practically the only thing stopping me from going further in the business world. I want to stop doing it and actually do something.

How?
