It's Time For a Change. But How...?
9 years ago
WE INTERRUPT THIS YIFFING WITH A WORD FROM OUR FOX
I've lost over $1,400 in the past couple of weeks. It's come to a point where I no longer even care about saving up... I'll just let whatever happens happen. Whether it's a waste or not can't matter to me. If I am to be broke, I'm used to it. If I can prosper after a few more months, that's great too.
All I can tell you my friends... is that I can and will find a way to make it. Things never ever go my way in my life. They never have and never will.
Except for one thing. I'm still alive. That ought to be something right? Keheheh... This month's been a financial disaster... but... maybe if I wasn't so anal on conserving the money I worked too hard to get (what with terrible managers, low pay, arduous tasks within it), maybe I wouldn't be so stressed out... I should just relax and let what I want come to fruition... even if it is at a SERIOUS monetary cost. Of course I am still going to monitor my savings carefully, but... I am going to try and not let it get me down so badly. It's become a detriment to my health.
And besides... once this shitstorm clears and I have my roommate in here after my mom leaves... HOPEFULLY... things will get back on track, and things will look good once more.
There is still hope. I am still holding on. I'll find a way through this mess...
I think one thing I need to do is look into how to capitalize on my writing... Like advertise it or getting it in for potential publication. Who knows? If I succeed as a writer, will I have so much to worry about? As much, I mean?
See, I think the BIGGEST problem with how I'm running my life are the facts that I'm too hesitant. Not taking enough risks. Not talking to enough people... these things... they're holding me back big time... If I can break the mold on just one or two of these things... maybe I can find a way to do something about the shit I ALWAYS complain about!
THAT, and I also need to get involved in this community a lot more than I have... make new friends. Meet new people. Explore around... way more than I have up to this point. Already getting close to four years in the fandom and what have I accomplished. Nothing really... So it's really time to do something about it, am I right?
But the problem is... where and how do I begin...?
That's the problem that plagues just about everything in my life, not just this... it's getting started... that always keeps me from doing anything. Got any tips for an idiot like me to finally break the mold?
This is something that I my need help on. But maybe... the answers are far closer than I think...

Hello there and good evening to you. I appreciate your frankness and that you are able to look yourself over to figure out how to move forward. Really it's not always the money you spend, but how much and to what. If you can spend money that will come back to you somehow (like growing a fruit and vegetable garden), then perhaps you will feel that less of your money goes down the drain in vain. Also, I like your idea to write. Just be ready for criticism, and at first write because you love the story. The little bits can all come together as time goes on.
Sometimes talking with strangers is a really brave thing to do (online or offline) but if you think you found a nice one, chatting sometimes or keeping yourself in their mind can be a good thing I think? Too much and they shy away, to little and they forget. Ah, but such are things; this life is as forgiving as it is harsh. We just have to take the good and brush ourselves off like you do after the bad. :)
Anyhow, I wish you luck in getting things started. Perhaps now you have?
But I will attempt to get started soon... Not RIGHT this moment of course...
Still, though, good luck. It should be kind of interesting once stuff gets rolling.
