Reaching Goal as Fast as Possible

As of this moment, I'm doing the best I can to be awesome at my day job so that I can gain so much more job experience and take it with me to the next one if I'm forced to. 

For my side endeavors, I'm dabbling mainly in stocks and Forex. I'm slowly building upon experience with holding and trading cryptocurrency assets and playing fast-fold online Poker. These are the main things that I want to be decent enough at to diversify my good and bad days while balancing out to a net worth over a million dollars someday. I'll be happy with just that amount and then start chilling while looking for a genuinely nice lady to settle down with. 

I've made a little progress in my non-dating life. I have a confirmed soulmate friend who is a girl! She really isn't perfect and I think it really just irritates me thinking about her being with someone else, so I guess it reminds me to pick up the pace and work harder to reach my goal so that I can then place my next goal on looking for someone to settle down with. I think I'll just be constantly irritated whenever she's dating someone and I think about it until I'm with a good girlfriend! As of this moment, I'm not interested in trying to get with her but I have started to argue with her to accept the idea of dating short guys who are like me.

Reaching Personal Success Before Getting a Girlfriend

I think personal success for me is becoming a millionaire on my terms from making investments and trades. My style is about holding on as long as possible while holding profit and letting go of losses. 

I do know a friend who thought he was the best from making short term trades, but then he ended up getting burned. He believes in taking a little piece each time and being accurate about it while risking a huge load of money. This adds up to a lot of frustration ultimately. 

My style might not seem even plausible and too laughable to even try to achieve but so far, it's been working out for me and I'm staying super relaxed. It's really about being patient and going at a moderate pace for me. There's no need to let greed or too much blind confidence take over with getting rich. I've sort of passed those stages of emotions now.

Once I've reached my first million dollar net worth and have six pack abs, I'll be ready to get a girlfriend. She might not even be from my parents' ethnicity which will be disappointing to the parents and other old time thinkers but I'm obviously not going to care about eloping since I know the type of girl I really want to marry. 

Critique on Friend About Being Dating Coach

My friend is a slightly funky type of girl and wants to coach one of her friends who has dating problems. I told her good luck on working with that girlfriend. I don't really know if she will be successful with coaching her though. If she was like her sister she grew up with then I would understand but her personality issue seems to be rooted in something deeper than just forcing her to change around a few main behaviors for dating. What if she reverts back to any unwanted behavior for the guy she truly wants to be with? With this whole thing about wanting to be in a committed relationship and failing to do it with someone already with a particular guy she likes, it's like the guy might actually be a good match for her and wants long term too but there might be something about her that just hinders it. I think she could be a candidate for seeing a well-credentialed relationship therapist. I don't even know if my friend has time for studying something so intense like that. 

I honestly think her best level of starting out with some date coaching success will be working with someone hot and interested in a dating relationship but just shy about meeting people. She can then be like their professional wingwoman and make suggestions but they would have to also like them. Overall, I don't think she's totally cut out for coaching people through the more commonly difficult dating issues. 

Following Up Story About Friend Who Was Trying to Force Her Way in to Being My Date Coach

I'm going to share something since I'm starting to warm up to decent discussions about my potential dating life. My thoughts about it are becoming more detailed and pretty interesting. 

A long time ago this friend was quite a party animal and liked making herself drunk. She was more of a lightweight, if you compare her to a regular guy. Maybe she pregamed as well, but I think with just two stiff cocktails, she became so buzzed and blacked out. She hosted and threw some fun gatherings, which I'm grateful to have been part of even though it ended up having an unfortunate scuffle with a former couple. Those two were labeled by another friend as the perfect drama king and queen couple! 

Here's the juicy part. She was a lovey dovey drunk and came onto me a couple times. It was so annoying since I never will take advantage of a drunk girl to begin with. It's just not winning the right way at basically having some good and fun time! I'm still proudly holding onto my chastity like a champ and don't want it to go to waste since I'm just not ready yet to find someone to date and eventually settle down. I just don't have it made for myself yet, but I'm trying harder than ever this time.

I really don't know if she liked me a little in the past and maybe she's forgotten about it by now if she did, since I'll admit that I wasn't at least ugly for a short guy and probably a gentleman for some time before a few crazy incidents took me out of commission. I was just uptight about dating since I had to work on myself and figure it out

Giving Tip for Friend Who Tried to Force Being a Dating Coach

You can start off by being realistic and finding an actual pretty hot or cute person with a high chance of finding dating success. Start off with something easy. I'm not someone dating coaches should seriously consider coaching to begin with. I wasn't very satisfied yet to start looking for dates seriously and distracted with finding personal answers. I'm now living my life to fulfill these answers. Basically, it's a given that a guy being short generally gives him a harder time with finding someone to date. I can't respect a dating coach who can't address this aspect and this friend failed to live up to it.  

The friend is trying to coach another friend who is a girl to find a long-term relationship. I'm not sure if it's occurred to her that maybe the type her friend is dating is the reason for short term relationships. Maybe she should try out something fresh. Also appearances wouldn't matter in the long term when it comes to making daily decisions with a partner anyway. If a handsome guy or beautiful lady you are dating cheats, do the looks still matter with retaining your trust? Why be so close-minded to begin with? 

This is all starting to make sense. 

Updating New Method of Trading Forex

I'm going to just keep it simple with how I trade this time around by looking at the monthly and daily chart, while making an entry on the 4-hour chart. This seems to be making the most sense to me. I'm noticing that with how the monthly chart forms with its candlesticks, the daily chart will show the market following in that same direction in the long term. This practically means to me making reliable money! 

My plan of attack is treating the Forex market like I'm treating them as long-term stocks. I really do like playing it this way, so I'll see how it goes from here on out for the next few months with this same simple strategy. 

Merry Christmas

I've grown up around tradition and I've bought into the Christian faith. There are plenty of people out there who don't want to abide by religious beliefs. I guess I sort of get it now too. It's just so wrong to try to force people to believe something that they aren't ready to receive nor can't perceive. 

I was such an annoying person even to my old and crazy stupid peers who turned into a bunch of failures with leading a highly successful life at the top level. I mean who really gets there, right? For sure, they didn't, which I can write down with a sign of relief! 

I'm someone who is motivated and very confident about reaching his end-game level and then going beyond with just a constant barrage of high-level enthusiasm filled with positive energy and great attitude while sharing a wonderful life with a good woman. 

Honestly, I don't really care about looks anymore. Just don't be a partner who turns too fat and lazy with me. I will be such a mess to deal with from trying to always force that person to improve her health condition. Whatever physically good things I'm feeling with some women, it can still work on all body types and it gets accentuated from just getting to know her nice self. 

It turns out that even my soulmate isn't that wonderful of a person and can be a little ignorant, even though she is still amazing to me, so it won't be too hard for me now to find an interested lady who will exceed her by just a hair. 

Happy Christmas Eve

What's pretty crazy is that I'm writing this post on September 15 of this year. It's just interesting how I'm running these posts. I'm well ahead of my goal of averaging just one post per day on this blog site. 

I've managed to do it fairly well for the most part for almost the past ten years. It's something to be expected of me now, and this is really all for nothing. I thought I freaked out a few people while I was dealing with some emotional problems but I've worked on it over all these years and now I'm happy with a ton of confidence underneath me. 

Physical appearances on a woman really don't matter to me period! I'm really into an acquaintance right now because of her sweet demeanor. I'm one of those kinds of guys. 

For example, a friend told me that I'm like a brother to her and that she wouldn't ever think of dating me. I messaged her a few days later that I was never interested in her anyway and didn't know why she brought that up with me. She felt like I was picking on her! Wow, she better watch out what she says to me in person. I've learned that I'm really sensitive about being called like a brother by a girl except for my actual sister, so I better tell her that before she gets around to hearing how I never was going to ask her out anyway! 

Making Progress

So looking back on the progress I've been making with myself so far, I never did really appreciate a friend demanding to be my dating coach! I mainly had issues with lack of self-confidence and nobody not even those dumb annoying folks who claimed to know more than they thought about me was of any good help to me. Typically, I just need factual information and as a guy who naturally uses the scientific method, I can run personal hypotheses with tests and personally come up with analyzed conclusions that are always subject to change. To explain how it worked practically for me, I just went to a professional researcher's free presentation on neuroscience and then that changed my life around! 

Even though it might feel a little cringy to me at first glance while receiving feedback from a friend sometimes while I know I can't see her facial expressions, I really do appreciate her taking some interest to comment and ask me questions even if I sort of feel like she is still rubbing me the wrong way a little. It's a test of personal strength utilizing anger management! In a way since she is already taken, I can see her like an older sister that I never had while growing up! If she wasn't then, I would want to say to her like most girls that she isn't my type. I don't like mentioning this to most girls when they say I'm like a brother to them. It's because I'm giving off a negative. If I think there's potential with someone like the one who switches back and forth with how I'm like a brother and then later she goes "I love you" then I think I will be happy to tell her she isn't perfect and that I can still date other ladies. She's still quite a special friend to me though! 

Getting Things in Order

I think the reason for maintaining a To-Do list for me is just to see with my eyes the list I have set in place for me. It's like a starting point for me because I have a bunch of distractions lined up to take me off course at any given moment. 

The art of time management is to be fully invested on the important tasks and prioritize them in order of time sensitivity. I prefer to get things out of the way first that can be done quickly that are important and stand out.

Staying Fully Invested

I think my secret and internally intangible sauce comes from just thinking fully invested while putting it on auto-pilot instinctually. 

From what I'm feeling, it looks like my friendship with this one lady is blossoming more beautifully and emotionally it's better than awesome when things are going good. I don't know, but maybe I've found my future romantic partner. She isn't perfect by any means, neither is she the ideal body type I look for in ladies normally but there's just something really special about her to me. I guess I'm more mentally checked in with her than I was with being zoned out in the past. 

Understanding How to Be Da Bomb

I've managed to write a pretty good song for use on the piano and it also includes original lyrics. It took me a pretty good three years to just get the gist of the whole composition. It's a sad song about breakups but has a very positive tune to it. Yesterday, I played it for a girlfriend. 

Our future status is pretty wild and unknown. It's fun and I like it that way! She's been such a sweetheart with me and I always enjoy respecting her space. I'm making subtle moves on her whenever I feel like it and it's just for fun. She's also dating other people and hasn't felt committed to someone yet understandably. Anyhow, I'm taking her dating tips and suggestions very seriously whenever she shares them. It's important for me to put them into use right away for her primarily and keep it in mind whenever I try to seriously date another lady. She's been such a cool find for me! She says that I've practically gained many qualities over the years to be her type. 

Getting to my main lesson of the day (TA-DA!!!) , the song I made by myself and can proudly state is like a favorite child of mine came out to be pretty good. However, when I tried singing Backstreet Boys with a seasoned singer at a small TV studio yesterday, boy, I was so terrible and out of tune. Yet, the audience and singer were super sweet with me. 

I've learned something very valuable. In order to turn into someone good at something, you should be fully invested in it like how I was with developing my song.  

Finally Killed It

I think I finally killed it. The saying goes that you can only understand life from having past experiences but you can't live backwards. 

This is what I wrote to those dumb people and this is likely my final message that they will never be able to confirm with me:

The secret to being in harmony with me and also applies to others is knowing your spiritual gifts. What all of you guys tried to do with me is not a demonstration of your spiritual gifts. It was more of trying to force your opinions or advice on me that was never invited by me. I disagreed and you guys became too negative. 

Maybe identifying one of your weaknesses as not being that patient because there's really no length of time that should be involved and not in self-control while angry about not being left alone which all of you guys deserve to have placed upon you for having been stupid with me is a good place to start! 

What I Think It's About

Nowadays, I think it's all about having a ton of self-confidence with a positive attitude and working hard while concentrating as best as possible daily to reach your main goals! The key is to be consistent while committing to something that just interests you so you can stay motivated. 

I'm really not all that into being recognized and don't really mind the world never setting its attention on me. I'll just keep doing the best I can while continuing to grow as a person. I really enjoy doing this and still feel like a fresh person with this type of mindset. 

Continually Making Progress

My next line of interest after doing stocks and Forex trades is working with cryptocurrency coins. I'm looking to diversify my side business with low starting amounts and looking to let that ROI grow into an extravagant rate while moving fast and being able to repeat all of this as much as possible. I also want to keep all of this convenient without having to stare at the screen all day. I prefer managing all of it just once a day ideally, unless I'm trying to figure out something. This is what I'm mostly doing to begin with. 

I'm not entirely worried about going broke, since I have my limits already capped. 

My financial expenses are still in order with bills getting paid. I plan to keep it this way while working on this whole side business. Lastly, I'm back in business with learning to master some recreational and fast-fold online Poker. 

Gaining New Forex Creativity

I'm starting to understand that there's really no perfect system, but from tracing the current indicators I have, I might have put together something really powerful for myself. From reading up on past strategies that were hard to comprehend, I just made sense out of it with what I have and it's finally aligning up with telling a believable story. 

The idea is to buy low and sell high. This is pretty much the main idea and using trend lines to create a channel pretty much helps. I've found some likable indicators to make the filtering process smoother with analyzing potential trades, but for the most part I think I almost have a complete system that I can faithfully stick close to. The process of how I'm trading seems to be lining so well with the market's direction. It just totally makes sense. 

Updating Forex Trading Strategy

It looks like I'm back to another losing month where I'm trying to make sense out of my indicators and getting it to work conveniently for me like an artform. For me, the story goes like this. I want to first know the directional bias of the market for the week. The indicator I'm using is a simple oscillator that shows me up or down at any moment.

Next, I want to check if the price for today is at a favorable level to make a trade or is pointing in the same direction. I'm using a trend level indicator and/or the same indicator from the weekly. 

My last check is on a subset of the daily chart from breaking it down to 4-hour movements and looking at practically the same thing as I did with the daily. 

What I have going is based on how the week is doing and deciding if today is a good time to get in with set parameters, get out early, or switch directions. 

What I'm Noticing

I think the main things to do well in life are to basically put in the effort to consistently concentrate while knowing what you want to do and staying positive with a ton of confidence. It can be hard sometimes or maybe you will want to get lazy from feeling worn out. This is probably where the mental health concerns can come into play. It requires a ton of dedication to basically set your mind on something that appeals to you. It can really be just unexplained feelings of negativity and feeling worn out while pushing through, but it can be lived through from thinking positive thoughts and having confidence no matter what and just pushing yourself to the limit on a daily basis. 

What matters in the end result is that you're happy with what you are doing. 

Main Things

I think it really comes down to having confidence and building chemistry with the girl a guy wants to be with. Obviously, it gets a lot easier if both are each other's type. My type is simple. She has to be a very nice person and someone who I want to always get intimate with! 

I've learned something new that I should apply. If any lady, even if she's a friend, says that I'm like a brother to her, I can just say something along the lines of how I'm still busy working on reaching my goals and/or she isn't perfect while agreeing that I could be dating someone else. If I don't really like her after thinking about it in that way, then I can just tell her that she isn't my type and apologize to her about it while laughing. 

The past in dealing with others who turned crazy with me is ironically centered around the subject just being all about me. I accept it with a lot of positivity now and some hidden feel-good laughter. 

Balancing Time Management With Personal Principles

I think establishing a predefined set of actions with common decision-time situations will really help move things along more efficiently. This can help identify some wasteful activities from binging carelessly on some mental or physical cravings. There are also a bunch of in-betweens that can happen too and leave one without much resolve. 

I think it's really about just giving it your best every time and looking around the best way you know for solutions while staying positive about all of it! 

What I'm reminded of is that it's like putting yourself at the starting line and then going for a long run while self-managing and focusing on everything you can about yourself. 

Staying Committed With Self-discipline

This isn't anything old, but now I figure that in order to reach personal goals and especially those hard ones then it's going to require some consistency with putting in the effort, while setting aside the smaller things. It doesn't necessarily have to feel good sometimes unless you're lucky maybe but it's really about being committed to some sort of lifestyle. 

I do have some clear goals now, and I've gone through so many ups and downs that they are still the same after being tested for several years. I can now put those concerns of having a lack of direction aside and focus on the actual meat. 

This is very valuable and might as well treat it with taking care of the most important and mandatory or time-sensitive things first before giving in to other things to keep yourself balanced. I think this is the very essence of time management.

Feeling Willful Duty

I believe in my heart that it's my duty to remind the others from my past of how stupid they were with me! 

I couldn't tell what they were up to back then and I was really struggling to find my own personal ground from lacking so much confidence. I felt like I was being walked all over by them when I would persist in talking about what they were doing to me. I wanted to be nice by just nudging at them to remind them about being a bunch of jerks. They were so focused in that crazy zone to even take notice of themselves. 

Overall though, they failed to do whatever bad they were trying to do to me. They totally had it all wrong with trying to force their own help on me negatively. I never asked for their help and neither did I let it get to me so much that I put myself in any trouble. They couldn't handle me talking about myself and the subject was me which they claimed to know more by acting in a crazy manner because I disagreed with them and went for discussion. 

I'm totally on par or better with my optimal state so I'm ready to take on this duty to just let them know and advise them not to be like that with anyone or themselves when they are so angry about anything. Let's make this world a better place to live in for others who are shy to have less reason to be scared. I have been one of them, but broke out of my shell.  . 

Working Hard to Make Some Money

I'm figuring out based on my personal principles that it makes sense for me to take the long term and easy approach. I don't really want to spend my time researching anything and just use a systematic format that's just laid out conveniently for me. I don't want to limit myself in what I can invest, too. 

This is why with the funds I currently have, it makes the most sense for me to invest in stocks and trade in both Forex and cryptocurrency. With all of these, it's easy to put in any amount that you want to risk. I have been doing a little bit of options, but find that it's not that favorable for me because I don't have enough funds to risk it and the price of entry does get too high for me right now. I'm going to have to wait to build up my portfolio with the others first. This way, I'm going to have experience with the foundation in case I have to start over. I hope it never comes to that though because it's probably going to take many years for me to get there. I don't really mind though.  

It's just four things for me to build my wealth. My last one is software engineering. 

Asserting Something About Myself

From what I've learned about my preferences while having e-mail discussions, I think it sucks to hear regular people's thoughts about personal relationship topics! I never ask for it and a few have tried to impart their flawed wisdom on me. This is how Crazy Lee came barging into my life! It's a pet peeve of mine and something that I'm going to have to minimize experiencing by keeping my feelings to myself moving forward. 

I don't see my future S.O. as a regular person but someone super special! I have been learning that being completely honest about it with others when I'm confronted has been working well for me on maintaining relationships.

Understanding a Friend's Lack of Potential

Looking back, a high school friend of mine is really quite an idiot. He likes to be a show-off and feel like he's on top of the world one day if something happens and relive the most memorable ones, after it passes even if his life is sinking deeper into depression!

I can accept it while laughing at him and telling him straight up but I still need to put some work on myself so he won't be able to make any comeback statements that end up irritating me. For this reason, I'm not hanging out with him anymore but I'll be back once I have that in order. It's been a year already and might stretch out into several. I guess it's good to avoid his negativity and work on my main goals while being comfortable spending my time with some great friends instead. I just don't need anything from him anymore!

For the most part, I have four points about him that I will be sharing once I have my main goals in order:

1. He thinks working to make money on his own and then owning his own place is very hard. He claims that he knows everything, but this shows he doesn't.

2. He thinks he's a little better than everyone overall. There are people who have gone all the way from the bottom to the top. He's not better than these people.

3. Once I reach my main goals of being a millionaire with a nice home, six pack, good wife with possibly kids, and living much more happily; all of this is just a plain average life to me. He is below average.

4. It makes sense that he has come to accept his own depression. He deserves to be where he's at in life and to stay there. 

Basing It Off Personal Principle

In order to maximize reaching my main goal, I have realized a basic principle for myself. I want to get there in the smoothest way possible. This means that I'm setting aside my dating life and maximizing personal gain to the best of my ability. 

Poker is a pretty fun game to play with others and to try to master even with little money involved, but I don't want to get serious about making it a profession to reach my personal goal of becoming a millionaire. The reason for this is that I want to always put in the time for positive gain and how some Poker sessions can turn out to become a losing one. Even the best Poker players in the world have bad outings once in a blue moon and are televised for our entertainment!  

Playing online Poker to gain only play chips which I'm doing is enjoyable because none of my money is being put at risk. I'm even a high rolling billionaire in the Play Poker app I'm using! 

The unique situation I have going with investing in stocks while trading in Forex and cryptocurrency is that I don't need to put that much time into monitoring it while I can do something else. If my portfolio is losing one day, then I can just wait for it to turn around or just exit some positions. My money is being put at work to gain passive income and the associated risks don't really outweigh the benefits of enjoying my free time at any given moment. 

In contrast, for the very same reason of how my principle is to not put in work for a losing session, I'm not meant to be a traditional business owner because I don't want to put my money at risk like I'm doing with playing online Poker. However, investing in stocks and swing trading as a business is affording me a lifestyle that I have preference for. It's just different in that I can put in some negligible time into it, in order to build wealth. 

For my day job, I'm going to stick with software engineering because I enjoy it. It's a positive activity with learning because the more I know, the more I'll be putting myself in a good position to start off my own successful line of software products and working in a cushy job. 

To start off with building my wealth, I'm going to stick to only four things: stocks, Forex, cryptocurrency, and software engineering. 

Balancing Things Out

Maintaining my main goal in a sense does cause me to have a more balanced and cleaner life. I want to be a millionaire with six-pack abs! It's not really for all the social status as it would probably not even be enough for that. I just want liberty from having worked hard for financial independence and having free time to enjoy the great outdoors while being healthy. 

I think I have barely enough talent to make that happen for me. The rest of it is going to be putting in so much hard work. 

Let's Get Rich

Learning how to get rich will probably take a while to figure out because you will have to know what you are truly interested in. Exploring your options while going through some ups and downs is so worth it. It's just better to maintain a ton of positivity and keep it consistent once you are settled in.

For myself, I want to be less of a hands-on kind of person and spend a lot more time doing other things instead while investing or trading. This is why I enjoy long-term holds or swing trading. I don't want to be constantly staring at a computer screen while chasing after a target or figuring out when I should make an early exit. 

I've settled with hiring some help and am pretty happy with my setup. I have entrusted a conservative investing group for research and another for simple software tools to make managing my portfolios daily so much convenient. I probably average just thirty minutes a day at most now to build my portfolios. 

Something that could take me a little longer than an hour is playing fast-fold online Poker for money. I'm looking to double up or bust before calling it a day. I have a strategy that works fairly well and is starting to close in with consistent gains. 

Overall, I have five things right now to build my wealth. I plan to diversify with more once I have a high enough portfolio value. They are software engineering, Forex, stocks, cryptocurrency, and fast-fold online Poker. 

Getting Better at Making Money

I think the main thing is pretty much knowing what to look for and being comfortable with the money that's being put at risk. It's probably good to get your feet wet and read up on your sources and if it makes sense then just go along with it. 

I'm really looking forward to the day that I won't really have to work anymore and just be home while collecting wealth off of an early retirement and living comfortably in a good home while married to a nice, attractive lady. It seems like the best dream goal to go after for me. 

For a personal update on trading Forex, I'm implementing a multi-chart system and it seems to be working well so far with signaling a decent amount of profitable trades. I'm still fine tuning it but feel like I can only keep on getting better with it. I have made the Weekly to be looking for my main trend, the Daily to be matching the weekly trend, along with an oscillator that follows price action and is on the upper half of the price channel; and lastly, for the 4-hour chart to be on its upper half of the price channel. Something new I plan to add is that if the Daily trend is showing uncertainty then I will be looking at the 4-hour chart for confirmation. 

All this can't be explained without leaving out a video or chart but I'm not in the mood really to be fully sharing this system. I think I've given enough hints for anyone interested to start out with making their own trading system which will probably end up being entirely different from mine as well!

I'm going to be getting into cryptocurrency trades now as well. Online fast-fold Poker is something I look to be playing for profit as well. 

Reaching the Top Potential

I think in order to get there, you really have to be able to take on the labor intensive requirements while adjusting yourself on the go naturally. You have to start thinking about how you can utilize some things that interest you while letting yourself be educated by smart people! The way I like to learn right now, which is not too much different from the past, is doing it on my own. 

Looking back now, I don't think I ever needed to go to school and could have dropped out, but I lacked direction and had virtually no self-confidence and motivation from being mind-locked and eventually numb about my concerns with the future. I pretty much came up with a simple goal and did enough to barely graduate a 4-year college, despite not performing at my highest level while being a young college student. 

My worries used to be on things that didn't relate to school, like I wanted to do well on all my friendships, even the bad ones. I assumed in the beginning that everyone was good and equally trustworthy, so the ones who were friendly with me were okay to be around. It was only wishful thinking, now that I'm fairly disillusioned about it.  

Trying Hard to Gain Rewards

With the basics that I know so far and works for me, it's mainly about keeping a positive mindset while trying to stay focused and working so hard in a steady fashion. It's not easy to maintain this because the mind, body, and soul will naturally want to rust and place itself in a happier and less stressful environment sometimes. 

I think this is why always maintaining a high level of confidence with a positive attitude is so crucial to keep your main goals alive. It's really just a matter of doing it consistently and should start feeling better once you start experiencing more success from constantly practicing in something. 

Eliminating negative distractions really do help and it's also something that's tough to recognize for yourself. I realize now that I lucked out by doing it naturally for myself for some time.
