As for your vices, the puritans would say, "Take out the wild horses if you wish the wagon to be drawn."

Something like that.

But really, some folk just want a 'regular job,' they don't wanna work for themselves, they don't wanna be rich, they wanna leave their problems at the job when they come home.

Some people wanna teach, for example. There's nothing wrong with that.

It depends on how you define 'success.' What makes you happy, while still being a 'responsible' citizen or parent.

Knew a guy whose dad had a successful subcontracting company and the dads brother was homeless. When they landed a big contract they would collect the uncle from the streets and put him on the job. His alcoholic, homeless uncle is one of the best caulkers when he’s not drunk and homeless.
