I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

Yesterday - Why Do You Need To Impress These People Again?

Trolls online are there to cause me angst. They do it intentionally. I feel sorry for them because they have a need to be filled. I never worry about impressing those people because they have their own issues. That’s the same for people that impress me. When I’m feeling people out I tend to overthink responses in an effort to get them to like me. It’s not a great place to be. I have a need to impress everyone. I have to realize that’s out of my control. I need to be me.

Today - Reason In All Things

I am working on thinking about the decisions I make. Sometimes I get into an autopilot mode and regret making decisions. I am trying to take a step back and understand those impulses and whims.
