If I only had a mathematical brain...

I'd love to program.  I really would.  But my mind isn't cut out for it.  I've seen people who think mathematically, and I'm not one of them.  I keep  getting stuck on Trig due the to stress from each lesson that adds on top of the previous lesson.  Inane equations within equations, combined with my short memory span and occasional absent-minded backwards thinking means I have to try three times harder than someone who has math "come naturally" to them.  Instead, I have a more creative mind, endlessly thinking and imagining.  I believe this the opposite end of some spectrum, as these math wizards I've met seem to be less creative and more mechanical in thinking.

I was thinking of Game Designer as a possible option, as I can appreciate programming and understand it overall, but can't do the code for shit.  But with creativity I could create a design that programmers can work with.  The only problem is I'll be trying to work in a computer field without a CS degree, and would get little respect for not knowing the details of what a programmer is talking about.

>>7 Or even the (for a long time) one-man effort X-Plane (x-plane.com), possibly the most accurate flight-sim available anywhere, to the point of serious aircraft designers using it as their production simulator.

"Corporate Games Programming Still Sucks".. I've an old friend who was apart of it, and he's livid to the point of his telling every kid they're delusional if they want to work for any 'brand' computer game company. He'd worked on 'so many awesome games' at OziSoft and elsewhere that got smashed in the skull with a ballpeen hammer by a retarded greasy/pointy-haired self-important MBAs in their 11th hour...
