-5
In recent times, I've been feeling like a shadow of my former self.
There was a time when I would have upheld my highest values of honour and integrity despite the struggle I would have faced, and still summoned the energy to work on my plans and goals.
Yet, a year and a half later of suffering the same struggles... I have cut ties with a close friend of mine whom I missed out on a chance to form a relationship with, and I feel that I have been uninterested in rising up and braving my challenges.
I feel that I have let myself down and betrayed my own sense of honour. I also feel that I have lost my ambition.
I feel that, to counter this state, I might try to 'feed the good wolf', as it were, and consistently try to feed energy towards thinking about the things in my life that are going well and that I am grateful for, and to not feed energy to the things that have been hurting me.
