My friend, you feel a failure, why? Why not do the job that you like to do? I'll tell you an anecdote. I know a person in high school showed a spiccatissima attitude toward physics, in particular to nuclear physics. What his classmates had to learn in hours and hours of study on the books, he assimilated it in an instant, as if by magic, for him was simple. For that matter he had no secrets, moving between the elementary particles and nuclear forces with the same ease with which they handled the basketball. In the fourth year he had already finished the program of the fifth and the professor found nothing better than to give him some university textbooks to keep him busy. That guy was very unfortunate, however, his family was not poor, but at that time was experiencing serious economic difficulties, and when the physics professor came to his house to his father to sign the papers for your application to Normal Pisa, the father replied that he could not keep the study in a distant city. The boy could then enroll only the Faculty of Law of his city, but he studied with the same degree listlessness, without trying ever so much, to 19 years in the military without asking the court and even working around the post. For the English exam was inspired by an article he had read on the company of one John Aristotle Phillips at Princeton, and wrote a dissertation on "nuclear blackmail", a subject which at that time (it was 1982) they began just to talk. To his surprise before the exam he was ordered to surrender the original of his manuscript and he was forbidden to do so by typing a copy shop. His examination was held behind closed doors, in the classroom could enter only he, the teacher and a third person at all strange that he sat against the wall behind the teacher. After the investigation ended, the unknown man got up, took the manuscript, and carried him off, he never saw him again (but it has a photocopy, who kept in a safe deposit box). His manuscript was never delivered to the university library, as was the case for all the work that students complete at the end of a course. His work was just declassified. That guy in his essay had designed a fully functional nuclear weapon, a bomb like Hiroshima, using a technology within the reach of any terrorist group just a bit 'facilities. That boy is now a mature man and works in a bank, he stopped studying physics since found an error in the equation of Einstein's relativity, now prefers to study the history and culture for staff to talk about politics and you hear a failed, because what counts in life is not what you do, but what you are.
A kiss.
