Hi all,

Great helpful environment here! I look forward to sharing my problems - and hopefully some success stories - here in the future.

I'm someone who has grown tired of my meager life and want to improve and become a better person. Life used to be promising for me. But I have thrown it all away by being irresponsible and immature. I've read a few self help books, understood them, came away excited, but then failing to act to improve my life. It's been difficult for me to put ideas into action.

Sorry, this is getting too long for an introduction. In due time, I will write a more detailed story about my meager life. I need to be honest with myself and come clean with how stupid I've been living.

Hi livewell!
Taking the first active step to improve your life is always the hardest part. I think you will find this forum a very supportive place.
Welcome!
Stacy

PS: No life is meager! We have all made mistakes, but how else would you learn? I have also started 'coming clean' with myself and have stopped doing things like telling 'white lies' to cover my butt - so far it has been an amazing and liberating experience.

Thanks Stacy. I have made more than my fair share of mistakes and that is why when I was editing my post, I changed the adjective from "mediocre" to "meager".

What's important is that all is in the past now and going forward, I will not accept anything less than "excellent".
