There is a battle going on inside of you right now -- the part of you that wants to spend all your time with other people is battling for control with the part of you that just wants to be left to your own thoughts for a while. If you can get out of major social obligations, let your solitude-seeking side win out just for today. You have to spend some time assessing the good things in your life, and the bad things in your life, in order to determine what is holding you back.
What is holding me back? There's only one thing: FEAR. Fear of not making it, of not winning independently, of not having people to save me from anticipated desolation, and of not having another chance.
How do I conquer fear? Tell me.
