you already are grown up and doing what you want to do. you can't wait for some future time when you think you will be grown up more so to get into life.

I'm sorry for this long email and I'm sure you get thousands of these each day.
no need to be sorry. however, yes you seem to have a way of wanting to get people to help you. how many other forums have you posted this same thing?

I'm not asking you to totally turn my life around or provide a miracle.
no one can do it for you, don't you know... no one can turn your life around for you because it's your life.

I just ask for a bit of advice and a point in the right direction. Do I need to work on something?
see if you can imagine this question coming from some one else. what would you say to them?

I know my problems but I still can't do anything about it. Maybe there is another problem I am not seeing?
the problem is insisting you have a problem with what you are deciding to do with your life. you are basically deciding to do what you do and then complaining that it's not what you want to do. take responsibility for what your life is right now as what you have created and decided so far. if you didn't have all this need to figure out what's wrong, maybe you'd just start going about your day more productively and motivated. There's a difference in focusing on things to complain about (including self created apathy and wanting other to fix you) and focusing on what can be next in your life. The only way to focus on what is next in your life is to surrender to what your life is right now and not get stuck analyzing and applying "fixes". imho. I doubt I helped at all. I may have even enabled your pattern in wanting to have others fix you.

life is what happens to you while you are busy making other plans.
