at times i feel like..?

i drew this comic a few days after an event i attended with a bunch of designers. the experience reminded me that sometimes i feel i missed the mark of what i was expected to hit, but to be honest i don't think i've been aiming for a particular target.

the designer lifestyle at one point may have been desirable, but as i get older it appeals to me far less, feeling to rigid and constraining. even though i know i'm a mature individual, being surrounded by such work driven people makes me feel naive, but i just have to remind myself that business is an act, you invest as little or as much as you want with unpredictable returns. i feel it is ultimately no true measure of an individual for real success does not come with tangible rewards, but a feeling of contentment.
