This is me in 2 years if I continue to make posts like this. I'm the one on the left.

Recently I’ve been feeling pretty good about myself in a way that only a man can… In my pants. Ok just kidding, I always feel pretty good about myself there. But seriously, I made up my mind to focus on the positive things in my life instead of dwelling on the negative.

Despite the undertow of self-doubt I’ve made a decision to continue to feel good about my life. Fundamentally that’s really all there is to it. It comes down to making a simple decision: Am I going to be happy or not? And so my mind is made up. I am.

I insist on feeling good about what I’m doing with my life and to be okay with where I am at. I will no longer beat myself up for not doing the things I think I should be doing, or want to be doing. Like blogging. (Or not blogging.)

Getting to this point hasn’t been easy and this seems really gay now that I’ve posted it. I am grossly oversimplifying the whole process but whatever, just go with it.
