Here's to a new beginning.

I don't care if this gets downvoted to hell this is for me and anyone else who wants to join me on a journey to reinvent oneself. For as long as I can remember I've sought others approval for every aspect of my life from the most basic to the most complex. From it came anxiety for which I was placed on medication. Needless to say I lacked any sense of self confidence and have had little ambition in life due to that. I've been in a constant state of self-pity and remorse for as long as I can remember and even though I have performed well in school, I feel as though I had little to no future. Not. Any. More. From this day on I am going to look upon my life as something that I am capable of handling and succeeding in. I am a nice guy I have good friends and people around me who care about me. I go to a good school and I will have a good job when I'm older. It's time to stop living to please others and live for me myself and I. It's time to start enjoying life rather than going through the motions. Thanks for listening to my rambling and I hope you all have a fantastic start to the year, It's gonna be a good one.
TL;DR : OP is reinventing himself. he's still a bundle of sticks but he is a optimistic and confident bundle of sticks.
