I'm doing 17 things
I believe of all my goals, this is going to be the most difficult for me to accomplish. I have only just begun to realize the exact character flaws that I possess and where they stem from. My self-esteem is next to non-existent, which in turn makes me say and do things that are definitely not impeccable. For as long as I can remember, I have tried to build myself up by tearing other people down. I talk about people constantly. To observe and point out other people’s faults and flaws makes me seem not so bad by comparison. Dare I say, it even makes me feel superior, which is just a lie. This epiphany completely knocked me on my ass. I firmly believe that in order to become a person I can love and respect, learning to be impeccable with my word is the most important first step I can take. It will be hard, yes. But harder yet is having to spend 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with a person that I don’t really like.

How I did it
It made me
Self-confident! 
How I did it: I didn't really think about it, I just did it. Rounded up my two teenage kids and said come on, let's go bowling. I was nervous because I didn't want strangers watching me make a fool of myself! But I finally thought, who cares? I don't know these people so what difference does it make what they think of me?
