I could write an epic speech that sounds epic and is full of quotable phrases, but the more I talk about it the less likely I am to do it. So, basically:
-Procrastination is the enemy, i start something but procrastinate until the steam runs out, then nothing happens.
-Anger and malcontent fuel the flames of change, but they don't last on their own. I need to make them last, keep fueling the fire with things that I want to change one by one.
-Structure is key, without it procrastination gains too much ground. I need to be rigid, have a plan and follow it to the letter. Therefore every week I will devote at least 3 hours EVERY day to changing something in my life for the better, be it bettering my appearance with better hygiene or how I conduct myself, improving my physical health with exercise, or improving my mental health with meditation or by learning something new, be it how to draw or a new coding language.
-Friends exist and can help me, but i first must prove I'm worthy of their help by making a few small changes on my own first, as words only travel to the end of the page, but actions can draw their own boundaries.
-my pursuit of little shreds of pleasure are just that, shreds. To truly be happy I have to work hard, be tireless in my resolve.
-everyone has a talent, skills, and a purpose, those who succeed in life know their purpose and make good use of it. For some though it takes a lifetime to find their purpose. I'm not waiting.
-good things do not come to people, people come to the good things.
I am going to take a nap to replenish my energy, as I've already said more than enough. I will keep this all as a reminder, read it every day so I can never forget what I must do, because when I wake up, I WILL make something happen, there will be no further rest until I do. I will print this into a poster and place it on the ceiling if I must, to ensure its the first and last thing I think about every day.
Get at 'em Marx.
