So I take it from your answer to The Cloud that you feel inadequate and insignificant. Why? What makes your enduring personal traits and characteristics, as they are right now, inadequate and insignificant? Why do you reject yourself so consistently?
Your real change begins by accepting and even celebrating what you are. And no, I’m not coming at this from a hippy-dippy, happy-slappy, New Age feel good point of reference either. I’m coming at this from a stop believing the BS someone sold you about who and what you are and celebrate yourself rather than attempt to become something you essentially are not. Know who you are on a personal level, celebrate it, from a place of self embracing ask yourself what you want, then do what you need to do to go after it without apology. If you want power, you can have it. However, it is an inside-out job first. You are starting from the wrong position (the outside-in approach), hence your perpetual frustration and confusion.
Besides which, trying on various roles in the hopes that they will give you a feeling about yourself that you don’t currently have won’t work anyway. At least, not for long. Roles and jobs and religions are interchangeable for some of us. Who you really are to yourself however, never is.
