Potential

I'm trying to redirect my focus. It has been largely inward my entire life. I worried if I was good enough. I worried if people liked me. If I did something, even for self-improvement, it was still to please others. I heard I had potential, and my only struggle was whether I should rebel against that and do nothing, or if I should try to reach my potential while worrying about whether I really can and if it'll earn me approval.

So I have a list of things I once liked to do, ever thought I might like to do, or surely like doing now. I hope to narrow it down to attainable, focused things, and then... start directing my energy there. And start seeing how things turn out when I put my energy into something more important to me.
