The World's Misery Swirls in My Bottle of Jack
Have you ever felt like you have to try harder in order to become greater?
But then you realize that the only thing holding you back is yourself?I'm currently in that position right now. I got all the reason to become what I aim to be but the only thing holding me back is myself.
It's like being at the edge of the diving board or bungee jump, all you have to do is willingly walk off or jump off or even back flip off, the execution (ideas) are limitless its when you go ahead and do it and things all change in an instant. The oh-oh feeling then the consequences of your actions descend upon you. Maybe that's why its so hard to take the last step that counts.
How do you get rid of the oh-oh feeling and just blindly go? Without thinking of the consequences, without fear of the unknown.
By definition courage would fit the answer - "the quality of mind or spirit that enables a person to face difficulty, danger, pain, etc., without fear; bravery."
But then it comes down to... how the hell do I find courage in myself?! lol I need to go see the Wizard of Oz.

develop trust in yourself =)
i know what you're talking about. i'm the only one stopping myself. or whoever's against me.
i'd gladly jump off a diving board or bungee jump, because i know where i'll end up. and it's fun haha. but as for real situations, i think we're too scared to know the outcome... cuz we're worried it'll be a bad one. or we're too self-conscious. so we don't do anything. then we miss the opportunity and you wanna kick yourself.
i think you need to just close your eyes and jump off. or get someone to push you hahah. don't look back!!
i don't know what this "oh-oh" feeling is :S all i get is the "oh shit" feeling
@chiyaroscuro - getting back to it, i'm starting to feel pretty good again. ah, its good to be back. = ]
@xxkOkOxx - i feel like i need to get rid of a lot of distractions in my life, unnecessary time being wasted when i can be using it more productively. writing is always productive lol it's a medium for expression and an extension of human language across time and space whats not more productive then that? it also allows people to socialize and comfort each other... thanks for the support, i really appreciate it = ]
