-I always wondered why I feel so lonely, so awkward.
Why I feel the need to get approval and acceptance from others. Yes, some people say normal is boring but right now it feels more preferable to be normal than who I am now. Others are having fun laughing and playing around while I can't even talk to a coworker without feeling like I am being needy. And yet I read about all these books on self improvement yet still stuck. More knowledgeable but still stuck.
For more dramatic results on your journey, I recommended concentration practice. The subs certainly can help in directing your energy, but nothing beats disciplined concentration. From that one aspect of the mind, everything else follows. Why do you suppose so few train this?
