Is it just me, or is it incredibly difficult to break away and find happiness? If I'm being vague it's because I don't know how to describe this feeling accurately. Basically it's like knowing there's more out there, you've seen people living the lifestyle you want, but for some reason it seems like it's not a possibility for you. And if you were ever as much of a self-help junkie as I was, the advice would be to tell yourself it is possible and you can do anything. But let's be honest here, I tell myself that and I don't believe it.
Why is it some people learn a few positive thinking and visualization techniques and fly away into success land and others try the same thing and just sink like a rock? I don't think it's a matter of hard work or dedication only. I just think some people are more receptive to changing their beliefs and that's it. It's that stupidly simple, but for whatever reason my own mind doesn't want to cooperate.
I'm just utterly sick of settling or bargaining with life. I want to go from "eh I guess this alright" to "this is awesome". And my biggest realization is it's not out there that needs to change. A nice job, a lot of money, hot girls, nice cars, etc. none of that shit is going to make me happy. The only thing that will is changing what's in my own head so I can actually live my life instead of feeling like I'm a prisoner to it.
