Personal Development & Community: Self-development

Why do you want to do this?

Why wouldn't I want to do this? My whole life I have been surrounded by negative, stay in the box, hold yourself back thinkers. I am generally the opposite of that, but it's very difficult to fight your family on these matters. I am having a huge life changing event, and I just want to be happy. For once. I think it would be liberating.

What three things will you need to make this happen?

Work through the Creating Your Best Life book.

Find and surround myself with positive, successful, fun people who share my beliefs, passions, and hobbies (travel).

Find a home and job that I love so the fears can leave.

What is the biggest barrier to your achieving this?

My biggest obstacle is I don't know what makes me happy. Buying things doesn't do it, having a marriage doesn't do it, working doesn't do it. Travel seems to be the only thing that works, but how do I do that forever? Unless I found a job that requires lots of travel, like being a photojournalist for National Geographic or teaching English in Italy or Greece.
