if you leave on time to get where you’re going, then why rush? if you go the speed limit you wont ever have to be tailgaiting someone, you wont have the stress of “go fucking faster you old hag”.
if you just realize that you don’t have anywhere to be that is more important that being alive (or not being in debt from paying for a ruined car, or not hurting other people, etc) then it’s a lot easier to control yourself.
but mostly HOW I DID IT, was to buy a really nice new car. to be responsible for it and paying bills for it all the time really makes me want to take care of it. it’s really stupid to ruin your car over getting to the red light fastest!!!!
by the way, learn from my mistake:
i’ve only been driving for 6 years and I HAD TO TOTAL OVER 7 CARS TO LEARN MY LESSON. guess i learn everything the hard way.

i started keeping a journal about 6 months ago. i was then in the midst of a drug addiction and eating disorder. as i hit rock bottom and then started the process of recovery from both i kept writing at least a few times a month. now when i read all my old pages it really gives me a chance to pat myself on the back and see how far i’ve come. it’s really weird to read the things i wrote about life and myself when i was addicted to hard drugs and when i starved myself (almost to death). i can see how warped my perceptions were, and how much i’m improving. it really gives me confidence and it makes me want to keep writing, keep improving myself and keeping a record of it for the future.

i’ve finally learned that in order to have other people like and respect me, i have to first like and respect myself. i’m a lot better to myself now, and persue my own interests. now if i meet people i know they really like me for who i am, because i’m being myself and they can see that i’m confident and have a good head on my shoulders.
another important thing i’ve learned:
THERE’S A HUGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING LONELY AND BEING ALONE…. just ponder that for a while, it kinda changed my whole outlook on life.
