The talented Mr. L

I'm a very grandiose individual. One of my top 5 strengths is Ideation. I'm constantly thinking. That's also a symptom of Bipolar disorder.

If I could just stop thinking about the future so much and live in the here and now, wake up and smell the coffee and stop to smell the roses instead of my feet once in awhile, I might be a less brooding man.

But I like the brood. I get these fantastic ideas, and set about on my way to accomplish them, then I either get another idea or get bored of the first idea and then I stop what I'm doing and start something new. (Yeah, that sounds like a Cheap Trick lyric).

Meanwhile, I'm constantly setting myself up to fail. Expectation leads to disapointment. Sure, you can learn a great deal from failure, and turn it into success. Look at Thomas Edison.

The thing is, success scares me more than failure. I'm sure though, one of these days I'm going to wake up 70 and be full of regret if I don't get off my ass soon.
