It certainly isn't giving up. It's not surrender. It's not accepting failure. It's not being idle. It's not doing nothing.
I've been asking that too many times lately. As a result I do things that will make me achieve these goals. It's about time I make them my habits.

Good to know that all the process I'm undertaking is helping me a lot.
Anyway, I want to share a dream I had last night. The parts I remembered are only patches but they still make a point in some way.
In my dream I was probably in a social venue like a bar or club. I was with people I know. One guy specifically stands out from them. He kind of looks like the guy I know back in college who seem pretty cool, handsome, girls like him etc. In that place he also shows a positive body language, kind of like an alpha. Then I confronted him up to the point where I verbally abused him which is weird why I would do something like that. After that his face began to change and started to look like me. I don't look exactly like him but there's a similarity.
At this time I feel I did that because I am trying to let go of my former self? Or my other self who doesn't want to change at all wants to fight me from undergoing a change? Or was I just being angry at myself?
