Also how long did it take for you to accept yourself for who you are?

I did as soon as I figured it out

@Monsieur. Fox I'm digging the Thelonious Monk "Monk's Dream" album cover in your avy. I listen to that album all the time.

Last year I underwent a major catharsis. I know myself now better than I ever have.

I'm 20 now, 19 when it happened.

It took me a while. I used to be defined by other people to be honest. Then, I took a step back from the world for a little bit and decided that me at my best is all I ever really need to be.

I agree with the person who said it's an on going process.

Thanks, not too sure if I've heard the full album or not. I've been a miles fan for long but I like monk. I need to hear more of his music and frequently otherwise I tend to forget what I've heard and have not. He's a man of impressionable style, that's for sure tho

33 years of age.

You haven't made it yet if you:

-Still blaming other people for your problems
-Afraid to open your damn mouth(inferiority complex)
-Caring about what other mfs think about you
-Basing your self-worth on someone else's opinions ie bosses, family, girlfriends, or even worse, randoms

Don't make me school you young bloods.

school me....

 

[Ciggavelli]

32, haven't figured it out

My mood shifts too much. I don't know what I want. Nothing excites me anymore

I'll probably never figure myself out

Just gotta finish this dissertation and what not. That's all I got going for me right now. But after that, who the fukk knows

 

[filial_piety]

I'd say about 27ish...at that point, I pretty much figured that this is the person that I am going to be for the rest of my life; no more "phases" so to speak.

 

[BrehWyatt]

It's an ongoing process, but I will say that ever since grad school, I've made more strides in this area than I ever had beforehand.

It ain't over, though.

 

[Ego Noir]

I'm 31 and I literally just decided what I wanted to do with my life like...2 months ago...

Had been on the fence about it for years...

Society tells me I had better have it figured out by 18 though...because I am either going to pay a ton of money to pursue education and training for it for 4 years if I am "smart"...or I am just going to try to jump straight into it after high school if I am "not"...

Im still fighting to find out the bolded. What did you decide?

Im still fighting to find out the bolded. What did you decide?

An author...mainly science fiction books and screen writing...

I've been splitting my time between doing a regualr 9 - 5 IT gig and writing for the last 3 years now...

I only write when I have the time...but with my job and recently getting married I never really have the time...

So it took me this long to figure out, that if I want to be a writer...I am just going to have to make the time for it....short change some stuff here...stay up later her...stay in and write on a friday instead of going out with friends...

Plus I have grown to strongly dislike my job, the IT industry in general, and corporate jobs as a whole...i view every second I spend writing is a second closer to me getting out of the corporate rat race
