I don’t know what to do. Well, I have an idea of what I want to do. But it does not make any sense
I have always been interested in emergency medical services. While growing up in Connecticut I became an MRT(First Responder) Since then I have gone on to teach First Responder and CPR courses and be Licensed as an EMT Basic in three states. I love the job, and most everything about it. From the moments of intense action with life and death to the times of monotony and B.S. calls.
I currently volunteer once a month or show for a large metro area with one of the highest per capita murder rates. I work the overnight shift 7-7. Its great. I get so excited leading up to every shift. I even have a check list to make sure I don’t forget anything (It sucked forgetting my flashlight once on a night we had a power outage)
This large amount of focus of mine on EMS is a problem though. Because for instance as I write this down I should be preparing for a meeting tomorrow in which I’m asking some investors to give me a few million dollars to expand one of my 3 business’s.
I’m 25 years old. Things in my life are going great, I’m making money to live as well as supporting multiple employees. But as I sit behind my desk at work I’m on forums like EMTlife, Or purchasing textbooks to read from Amazon. At night when I should be sleeping I think of my partners roaming the city.
It doesn’t not make sense for me to give up what I have, nor could I even imagine how I could do that, but that thought still always nags me. I just want to drop everything I’m doing and go to P school.
To get over it I tell myself things like – well even being a paramedic will get old and I’ll get burntout – or – I have so much invested right now in my business I need to see that through.
But it’s tough, because I don’t care about money, or the prospect of being bored in the future.
So I’m not really expecting much from this post but I just felt like typing it up
Thanks for reading
