The only thing stopping me from doing anything

Is the bullshit story I keep telling myself as to why I can’t. I want to do so much at once that I end up not doing anything. I feel like writing a story. I feel like writing a short story. I feel like compiling a bunch of people’s life stories in a small notebook, just to make something of my life. Find some epiphany of reality, a common reality. I actually should plan doing something like this. Would it be weird if I try to do something like this in a small community college? People do research projects like this all the time. Same with psych experiments, or interviews. Some things I plan on asking:

—–

What are your personal achievements

What do you want out of life

What’s stopping you from obtaining that

—–

whats your life story

what are some bad things that have happened to you recently

What are some good things

—–

Tell me what you want people to know about yourself but for some reason can’t

—–

I guess I’ll come up with some other stuff later, but I guess the goal is to make people re-evaluate their life. I guess the plan is to ask my close friends first. I’m going to approach people who seem to be alone. This is a year for change. I’ll say that this is for a psych experiment or interview but it’s really just for me to break down barriers and see behind people’s outer appearance. I gotta think of a purpose this might serve. Those are my personal reasons, but I don’t know, I really do want to do something remarkable. I want to get out and experience life, not necessarily the American dream of graduating college, getting married, having kids, and living a financially stable life. I want to get to know people. I guess to fill some void in me. Maybe by trying to ask people to evaluate their life, I can help find myself in my path towards enlightenment, or whatever you call it. Maybe by asking all these questions I can find my own answers.
