First off, please try and keep this thread respectful if you can.
Also please note I don't have spell check on this computer, so my apologies for mistakes.
This is really hard for me to write, and I've considered not doing it, but I'm sure there are other people here that have some of the same fears, angers, feelings of inadequacy, etc that I'm currently struggling with, but they may be too embarrassed to talk about it. That's why I'm doing this thread because maybe it could help you too if you see some of you in me.
And by sharing my growth process in this thread, maybe you guys and galls can help me too.
By most people's standards I'm financially 'successful'. But what is financial success if you don't have the other areas of your life in order as well
Anyway, as I get older (only 22 now), and slowly mature, I'm becoming more and more cognizant of my character flaws. They aren't healthy and are quite destructive mentally, emotional, physically, etc. This can't continue on its current trajectory.
The good news is that with time and effort I truly believe that these things can be overcome.
Anyway, the catalyst for this thread was the fact that I completely lost it on some poor front desk girl that was just doing her job tonight. She didn't deserve it, and I should not have acted the way that I did. It was disgraceful on my part.
I will be doing my best to keep a level and cool head throughout this process. It will be hard, but it can be done.
I will be covering topics such as anger, feeling of not being in control, self loathing/being too difficult on oneself, misogyny, addiction, elitism, comparing to the Jones', distractions, jealousy, negative self talk, etc.
I sound like a pretty f*cked up person haha. I can definitely be a jerk to people that I don't know personally. Maybe I am a mess, but maybe I'm not that much different than most, and I'm just able and willing to acknowledge my imperfections and improve. I certainly don't have to be these things any longer. I realize that these issues stem from my own insecurities and rather than blaming others I'm going to look inward and fix the issues internally.
