    Few writings pierce my heart, my heart became sad as I read along and saw myself fail but also angry. Angry at myself; Perhaps that's a good thing. What I hate most is lack of is decisiveness and willingness to fail. I hide behind family as an excuse. I latch onto the goals of others... more

    Few writings pierce my heart, my heart became sad as I read along and saw myself fail but also angry. Angry at myself; Perhaps that's a good thing. What I hate most is lack of is decisiveness and willingness to fail. I hide behind family as an excuse. I latch onto the goals of others in attempt to make it my own. I spend a lot of time planning to avoid failure. I've missed telling the last girl how I really felt. I am holding back my true desire which is learn Chinese because I don't know how to go to China to teach and have much money. I don't take care of my clothing. I still hang around people that are corrupting my mind with the constant of sexual. I don't try to become a vegetarian for that I'll be mocked. I keep my rejection of Catholicism from my family. There's just so much. They all stem from lacking a backbone. Started really from being so so quiet as I grew up. I can take some solace that lately I've been trying to exert confidence even though I don't know what the outcome will be, my Chinese speaking isn't that great and my programming skills isn't great. Also, that I wrote the girl a card on the last day before departing. Not the same as face to face but it's something Although, I didn't cry, the tears were there being held back ...

    Steve Pavlina nails it on the head. This is the essence of masculinitiy. Not just of being a man, But of being a REAL man. The type that is determined, fearless, knows what he wants and goes for it. Exceptional article
