  1. You only live once, put yourself out there, don't dwindle don't dawdle just get on and do it, take what ever work comes your way! For what ever money you can take, because believe me or not if you don't then you won't get recognised!! Forget the climbing for now and put yourself out as a freelance brash dragger/groundy it's never going to buy you a magnum ice cream but it will get you a 20p ice pop!!! And that for a start is all you need! Your 18 presumingly still living with parents/parent? At that age all you need to worry about is where your next beer is coming from! Don't give up on the full time work keep looking but in the mean time think on your feet and keep your head down and knuckle in!!!! Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk Mobile App
