I dont know as much as these others but I can be honest and perhaps that will be of use.

I am unbelievably good at just about everything I try and I work very hard at anything I do but it is a compensation for the complete absence of balance in my life. I have almost no family. No friends, and no social life. I am able to Excell at whatever I do because it becomes my only focus. I do not think you should be like me. Find balance in life and whatever it is that makes you feel achievement, and do that.

Do not seek to be happy. Seek responsibility and purpose, happiness will follow without effort....I may be full of Bleep but that's my 2 cents.
