Odds are, you never will. This is your roulette wheel, and when it lands on every number but the one you picked, and you realize that after years of work, you haven’t made more than a pittance at what you thought would be your new career, you will call it a day.

Because you didn’t have “it.” And you didn’t work hard enough to become it. And you will see you should have picked something something else: something easier, something less complicated, something other than than a writer.
