    Don't get out of your way if it works for you isn't detrimental to yourself or others though. Everyone likes havin' ? their way, nothin' wrong with that. I'd say to always look at ? from other peoples' perspective and be considerate. If your way is hurtin' others, stop. If your way isn't takin' the ? , do as you've been doin'

    Don't overthink things

    Don't doubt yourself

    Don't overcompensate

    Know when to shut up after you did something good and it's getting acknowledged

    ....a few examples that apply to various situations

    You don't truly get out of your way until you surrender to Jesus Christ.

    But that's just getting to first base, all though you have scored and won the game already.

    A Christian still has to deal with life and as we round the bases, we should be progressing in our walk with Christ by being more like Him day after day after day.

    We fall short, REPEADETLY, because we are sinners, but have been saved by grace.

    But as we round third to home, we shouldn't be doing the same things at 50-60 that we were doing when we were 20-30.
    And while we won't be sinless till we get to home, we must sin less. Santifaction is the name of the game and Jesus Christ is our claim to fame!
    Amen.

    Believe in yourself.
    Without believing that you are smart, and important to this world. Then you will always be a road block to yourself.

    Be selfish. A lot of people are selfless to friends and family, but for you to get ahead, you must shed the dead weight, or you will continuously fall to the whim of others.

    Be strong. You are able to handle anything the universe/? hands to you. You may seems as if life is handing you a stack of torn cards; however, it is up to you to assemble the cards anyway you can creatively. By doing this, you learn how to handle new stressful situations with your experience.

    Slow down. We run, run, and run into chaotic issues, and over work ourselves into the ground. You must take a breather, and sit down to reflect on your week. You mind and body need rest. Give yourself one day of pure alone time.

    Be patience. Success never comes overnight. It takes time to be successful and things may come up, but when your eye is on the prize, nothing with deter you from it.

    Yea.
    I had some growing to do in the past few weeks.
    I was starting to become numb and that's dangerous.
    So..I took some time away from the ? and formulated an attainable plan of action.

    My problem is that I talk myself out of a lot of stuff.
    I was my biggest obstacle for a LONG time.
    It wasn't until I came down here and had an honest conversation with my cousin that I was able to get an idea on the direction that I wanted to go.

    Like @Evilchuck‌ said..I wasn't patient or selfish with myself. I wanted something to happen overnight that I forgot Rome wasn't built in a day.

    It takes some people longer than others to find their way.
    But the biggest failure is to not try at all.

I just wish someone would punch the ? outta me so i can wake up and stop being a ? . My ambitions and dreams are so big, but i know i can do ALL things. Im just going through a ? phase. Im searching for answers. ? drowning in distractions and settling in ? , but its consuming. Im fighting though. Confessions of a 22 year old lost ? .

    being selfish and believing your smart takes self-control.

    thats why some people get in there own way...because they think they know it all and are too damn selfish.

    personally being selfish i never thought was a good thing. the word has negative connections to it. you can be driven and have goals and want to better yourself without being selfish. cutting dead weight is not selfish...it's stopping others from hurting you that are not needed. and if you help others to the point you are hurting your self...cutting them off will not help because you will only find others that you will help and hurt yourself. you need to look within to see why your doing it and being selfish is not the answer. loving yourself more is.

    believing your smart and believing yourself is two different things. you can go far believing in yourself, no one can take that away from you....but believing your smart when your not...is just funny when you are constantly proven to be dumb.
