If you haven't read this blog entry, it might help? http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/200...rsonal-growth/
I might also suggest reading The Power of Now. That book helped me become more present, instead of thinking about the future excessively or what "could be" or what "should be", accept what is and decide to go ahead with it.

Thanks for the link RT Wolf. I wasn't exactly seeking help, but I find the fact that Steve Pavlina addressed this issue is very interesting. The advice he gives towards this problem is very useful for anybody who does suffer from any anxiety or depression that is caused by improper or half heartedly applying self improvement concepts. I think it is important for the issue to be addressed more often because I am constantly noticing the link between personal development and emotional problems.
A good question to ask is... Is it important to address a persons concept of self prior to beginning an ambitious personal development program, or should goals, action, and techniques be the first step of personal development to 'get the ball rolling'. Changing one's behavior, habits, and self esteem is a long and difficult process but a very important one.
