You should finish school since you've already committed. However, realize it probably won't help much without all the other aspects of building a career: knowing how to work well with others, being assertive, taking advantage of social media, understanding wealth building. I'd say school will be 5-10% of the equation. If you finish school and don't create a strong base for yourself in these other areas, you will likely flounder. It's unfortunate, but many studies and surveys have shown lately that graduates feel their degrees are worthless in the workplace, and in particular the degrees in the arts have underperformed other fields.

Absolutes are dangerous. To say "You can not do anything without a degree" is simply wrong. Did Steve Jobs do nothing? How about Ralph Lauren? Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerburg, Ansel Adams, Woody Allen, Mother Teresa, and you know the list goes on. Are these exceptions to the rule?Perhaps, but this is why it is important to avoid "never, always, nothing, everything, etc." You learn that in school ;)

Yes, in Philosophy 101 (?) you learn never [well, hardly ever] to use absolutes. But you don't need a Degree for that. Abe Lincoln had only 3 1/2 years of formal schooling. Research will reveal that the more educated folks were self-taught.

Since this ZOMBIE post is 4 years old, Natalie must be out of school & on her way. Who digs up 4-yr-old posts? I say, BURY IT!. Please. Beth Fox Heisinger Shawn Speake

yeah finish

Hey Catherine! Yes, I'm currently working on a couple of screenplays, but I'm not quite ready to share yet. :)

Congrats!!

Hey Catherine... Yes, I know! (Yikes!) I was hoping to have other projects finished, but, of course, things didn't quite go as planned this summer. We just returned from our family vacation 3 hours ago! Anyway, the dog days are over, now it's back to work!

Congratulations Beth!

Congrats!
