Default All this energy but don't know where to start

I have all this pent up energy and frustration to start attacking the incompetence and complacidness around me but I don't know what to attack just yet. There's just so much. Financial, personal relationships, education, damn everything needs an overhaul.

So my question to all you PD'ers out there is what strategy have you all used to put everything in focus? Point me to some links to Steve's articles or anything. Thank you!

Do you mean yourself or those around you?

If you mean yourself:

Here's another you might find helpful -- it references the first article, but it provides a more comprehensive answer:

Get some clear goals in each area. Make a plan. Read your goals first thing every day. Constantly connect with where you are going to stay focused and motivated.

I made an evaluation sheet of where I stand in various areas of my life, and so far it's helped in clarity.

I think the thing I need to do most is to be "congruent with my beliefs" as they say around here. I find myself wanting to be something and to get things done, but my inner subconcious is pulling me back. I want that to go away or at least transform it.

I'll keep reading and applying though, thanks for the help

Hi Dive Bomb,

I think its great that you're discovering what it means to act congruently with your beliefs. That very personal journey requires courage. As you continue to "read and apply," you may think about noticing the kinds of people who write and the lessons learned they choose to share, am I right?
Whether or not you consciously realize it, your intuition (inner guidance) supposedly knows exactly what to think about where you are. Rather than ignore what action you would like to take, ask yourself if you're willing to admit your plans to yourself and to others. As you realize how you react or remain indifferent to people around you can teach you about yourself, you'll be less likely to try to change people and more likely to seek to better understand your negative energy.

If you wish to change others, consider why you think you need them to behave in a certain way and why you feel alienated because they're different than you. If you wish to change anything about yourself, consider no 'right' place to start may exist. That you choose to start would be meaningful.
