Yeah, I kinda wish I could. But it simply is not in my nature to do so. I'm impulsive, almost incapable of long-term planning. That's the psychopath that makes his plans far in advance. Sociopaths are more impulsive, less likely to carry out long-term plans. Though capable of doing so, we're just less likely to do so. If I did something that I would then forget about until a future date is reached then that would be an accomplishment. But as long as I know that there is a treat or otherwise in store on a specific date, then that would simply be a prolonged giving of a gift or otherwise. No surprise at all. And if it is something I would be thankful for then, why not do so all along? Work towards that better goal now and continue. Perhaps it's just me, or maybe I'm misunderstanding due to...me being me. You did submit a nice post, very thoughtful. I'm a mess and mean no offense or slight to you in any way. I take full responsibility for my thoughts and words even if it becomes necessary for me to redact all of them. Another sign...sigh.

What do you do daily to improve your understanding of improving your understanding on how you can change your thinking and so your life ?

I think of things I would like to do around the house. Even make purchases geared towards other projects. But it's all still sitting around me unopened cause I've lost interest already. Like I said, it's my nature. Yeah I can get up and begin work on a project, but something else must be done prior, and something else is needed to do that something first...plus I have gotten halfway through a project -or even completed it - and decide it is not want I want and take it all back down/apart and return for refund. In the process of beginning - once again - two projects that will synergize them both. Still in the beginning. My old printer died so I HAD to have another. Bought one online, delivered to front door, made it to office floor where it has sat. Unopened. Two months ago. Have an outside security light I plan on attaching to a tree near my driveway entrance. Bought the new light two years ago. Yeah, it's still sitting here. Though I did open it. Needed the bulb for a light I put up a decade ago. Easier than going to the store to replace it. Improve my understanding of improving my understanding on change...I think the understanding part is understood. It's the First Move dictate that holds me back.

I'd like to say I'm going to do that now but that would be a lie. Though I will put it on a "Watch Later" list so it's there when I do get to it. Sorry, but for me that is a start. It will be there waiting on me. Thanks for your encouragement, perhaps you understand, and at least reading my posts. I always go back to make small edits here and there but even I am curious as to my sentence structure and phrasing. I do leave out what I consider non-essential words from time to time to make for easier reading but then throw in an archaic word that comes to mind and MUST be used because it is the best description in that word only. It's because I read a lot of books and literature and know these words and meaning, so it follows into my writing style. Is that normal? I forget the "today's" word because that one ("yesteryear's word") has leapt to the forefront and has blocked everything else. But it fits, the definition is spot on. Why...oh what difference does it make. Having problems with that other guy within. Again with all the questions, why did you do that instead of this, now what are you doing, why? I think it's medication time. Take care my friend, stay safe. Again, thanks for everything. I'm a mess but I do laugh about it.
