I got into personal development 3 years ago, when I fell into a depressive state after almost losing my mother and brother to a hurricane. I was doing my last year at university at the time and had a hard time focusing on my studies and maintaining a routine. I got into personal development through reading some self-help books and joining the pickup community. I managed to scrape through university with a degree and flew straight over to Japan to work as an Assistant Language teacher.
Personal challenges I've overcome (chronologically):
-Fear of heights
-Coming to terms with my bi-racial identity
-Used to be very shy, introverted, and socially awkward
-Used to be emotional unstable and hide my emotions
-No self confidence
-Attracting women
What I'm working on now:
-Self criticism/ condemnation
-Finding a life purpose
-Working on enlightenment
-Working-out and reaching for my physical potential
Working on being more authentic in relating to others
Working on growing
