That was a GREAT post. I am glad you are figuring out how personally empowering it can be to admit what you can and cannot change, and then DO something about it!
This IS a plan of action yet so many of us are so inconsistent and lackluster in our efforts that we fail to accomplish much.
This is HARD work, and the main reason why is because it is SO intensely personal and seems like it will make us feel MORE alone, when in fact, we end up feeling more connected to everyone and everything around us (notice, connected, not attached) because we are finally allowing ourselves to make a difference in our lives.
I think you are going to do GREAT. Please, understand that at times, it WILL be hard, almost unbearable, but then again, things worth having often are REALLY hard.
