I am a total procrastinator. I got this challenge about a day ago, but at least i'm doing it and not running away right? I don't normally do stuff like this... writing "diaries" or whatever, but i'm learning something new about myself more and more.

You wake up thinking, "I know what i want to do..." or "I know who i want to become...", but it turns out the longer you look at yourself in the mirror the clearer your vision gets, the clearer the ACTUAL you becomes. It's not like i'm a fake or i don't know myself, but as life goes on things change and we change along with it. Sometimes that change is for the better..... What that change does is it brings you to a place you now see things differently; Yourself, your inner self, your personality... what makes you you.

The thought of changing seems scary at first, i thought about it for months, but it only seemed scary because i was worried about what others would say, but why hide the real me? If they like me for me then if I do change they wouldn't see it as something negative, but rather something positive.

That's actually what this "change" is. It's not really a change, but rather a growth. Which is what i did and hope to continue doing. I'm still rough around the edges but why aim to be perfect in an imperfect world?

Rather aim to be content and happy in life..... Something i personally want to work towards.

Well, That's the first attempt.
