My greatest hindrances are self-doubt and self-criticism. I also have a nasty lazy streak that I am able to defeat most times, but it's a sneaky devil and finds new ways to infiltrate my life and entice me...

If you don't mind, distant, I would like to hear your take on letting go of the past too, as Suratji requested. It's been an odd process for me, as there are instances when I believe I've wrapped up a particular part of my past and dealt with it, and it zings itself back into my life when I least expect it. I have been more successful with certain areas and events from the past than others. Always pressing forward though...

Keep up the good work reclaiming your happiness, distant--you don't need me to tell you it's worth the fight.
