don't be stubborn have inf. will power like me. try changeing something in your real life. Like for the better. I learn to be wrong and to admit it and kill your pride. that should destroy or at least reduce your stubborness. I'm not stubborn as much as I have a lot of will power. Liike I can force myself to change my mind and not stick to one thing.

Have you accepted the lord Jesus Christ as your savior? Me neither. Try getting laid or something.

I'm 5'4 and weigh 205 pounds. I don't think anybody, inebriated or not would be willing to do anything with me

@ICG:

I'm pessimistic, stubborn, and have a huge ego, but at the same time absolutely no confidence. Sup?

what's good an ego? unless you're that guy with a ego so huge he has back problems. Well if you really wanted to change for the better you would like I did.

I have the same problems. I haven't overcome them and probably never will. I lack guts

Oh, and we're both terribly bad attention *****s

You forgot to mention your bad habit of creating silly threads for attention.
I'm not asking for attention. I have a plethora of friends, and a Chihuahua for that. I'm going to my first OOS tourney and I have arguably the worst smash mindset ever, and am asking for help.

also you must understand there's a good side and a bad side to everything. Seriously give me something and I could give a good side to it even WWII which was polpultion control, medical breakthroughs, and leading up to a gen. of heros. more bad but still some good.

Stop worrying about your problems and TAKE ACTION! DO SOMETHING! What does worrying accomplish? Accept your flaws as part of who you are! (Are you a perfectionist?)

I worry because my flaws are extremely hindering to improving, so I've been told, repeatedly.

Also, I don't like who I am. I think I'm a worthless sack of crap,

I am a good person and I think terrible about myself. Also changing to be better can take years sometimes. Stop worring all it can do is blind you. Seriously that's it. take down one problem at a time you have all the time in the world just do it.

value or worth comes from others or one's self.

If nothing gives you value then in fact you are worthless so nothing in this world values you? I think UsurperKingZant does.

You're far from worthless
I dropped out of highschool and I don't have a job. I'm 70 pounds overweight, and a virgin. I spent up until last month mooching off my poor parents.

I have never been good at anything I've done, and I've quit everything (except) smash.

If that isn't the definition of worthless, then I don't know what is.

Do people point out the fact that you are stubborn and pessimistic, or do you just realize this about yourself and want to change it

I've known I'm stubborn and pessimistic for ages, AND people have been telling it its self destructive for ages, but I was too stubborn to change it. I've been using bull****, half-***** excuses to justify my pessimism, but honestly it's just my despising myself, but at the same time being too lazy to try to change.

GSG2 coming up, and having the funds to go makes me want to put an honest effort into changing myself, if it'll give me a better shot at meeting my goal(s).

It's good that you know this about yourself. It all just boils down to when you fell like putting in the effort. to change yourself. I see you post a lot and you don't post that way. That's good too, because i guess on the boards is a time where you are just more chill about things. So you have the ability to, it just has to carry over.

Hey man life isn't easy nor is it as hard as it seems. I've had problems you'll never understandand I may never understand being so low in the way of breaking like it sounds like you have or will. you also reliaze you have a computer in front of you there's so much you could quickly learn.

I mean I've been going through some s*** trying to figure out how ii'm going to die I may be killed in less than half a year I honest to God believe i've got a solid chance of it. you're got forever find something to make yourself happy and do it don't wate anymore time. I mean f*** go to afraica and compare our poor to their poor. you could grow corn somehwere and live off that. unlike some of them.

You should always be the first to identify your own faults. Nobody should know yourself better than you.

Despite that, I honestly am unsure on how to approach changing who I've been since birth. I've never been a very positive, or confident person, and I've always, ALWAYS been unreasonably stubborn.

I'm 220. 5'7. I have a girlfriend, you can get a partner too.

I am in college, but I have failed college, as if it was high school. I'm 21, and I still have no REAL job. (but I'm trying)

I don't even have a license.


But, I'm sure in time you can make little goals and be able to succeed just that much more.

Maybe your stubborness is part of your personality. I'm stubborn myself, we are how we are raised to be. No shame in being who you really are. : ]

Of course, I'm optimistic, but no one in my household actually smiles except me. So I'm the goof.

Why are you feeling down? Parents chewing you out or something? (of course, maybe at times we all need to try to get things done, I NEED to get a car)

Go see a psychologist. You have some personality disorders that need to be looked at, as evidenced by the fact that you suck and you highlight and exaggerate that fact to get attention and pity. There's no other possible reason for this thread, as in all of the other ones that you make you're disrespectful to people much smarter than you and you don't listen to perfectly good advice.

/thread so we don't encourage him anymore

I'm my own worst critic as the saying goes.

I know all my flaws, but I know everyone has flaws. If you expect yourself to be perfect or "better" or something, then you've lived your whole life failing. It's like living and telling yourself to not be human. then you still are human every day, and you feel like you've failed.

I have a lot of girls who are attracted to me consistently, but I always turn them away because I don't want to get close to anyone.

I just want to ask: what's your motivation? why are you alive? Do you have any purpose for your life, or any plan at all?

5'8 220 here. From reading your posts, you kinda seem like a more extreme version of myself. Look at my sig, its there for a reason. You need to live your life for glory and nothing else (also honor, but that's implied). Do things regardless of the consequence, most of the time you'll find that they turn out pretty well in the end. I would share with you my journey of self discovery, but it's too personal to post on a public forum. You just have to identify your problem, which it seems you have, and try to take steps to fix it. It doesn't happen all at once, and you shouldn't expect it to. It's a slow process and it takes determination. The other approach is to just accept yourself. None of us are perfect and trying to be is a waste of time. Sometimes you have to take the bad with the good and identify your strengths as well as your weaknesses and live life accordingly.

As for the smash part, being pessimistic won't get you anywhere. You think Ash got to the Indigo Plateau by being a pessimist all the time? Hell no, he wants to be the very best. When people like Hungrybox talk about a winning attitude being important, they aren't blowing smoke. Trying to improve at something while having a negative attitude is, for all intents and purposes, the same as giving up.

tl;dr - Go watch Gurren Lagann. That **** is inspirational as hell. All you need to know resides in that anime.

That's all I've got for now.

Yes SHOOPMAN <3 for referencing Pokemon. We just gotta LISTEN to the pokemon movie soundtracks and BECOME THE BEST WE CAN EVER BE. I'm sure YOU can be the best if you practice much more. See you in the elite 4! lol... If I ever get there xD (listens to soundtrack xD)

Maybe by posting this thread he acknowledges this? Although there isn't MUCH reason for saying it like this: "much smarter than you" not that you should sweeten it up but not that one should put salt in the wounds either...

Hmmm, I see. I mean, I would like to see his argument about WHY Forward could be wrong about smash.

Still, just because he says something in one way, doesn't mean we should as well.

I mean, I'm guessing he didn't back up his claim, because one wouldn't say something like that unless reacting to a statement closer to an insult.

Not that he should be insulting others like that either. This goes for anyone, even me.

I like how cool stuff on this forum gets moderated on the first or second page, but this OBVIOUSLY VERY ON TOPIC post is still going strong.

LOL. Hey, I'm sure they will work on it. :p If you see spamming/flaming, then report it. Although, I am not spamming nor flaming. SO DON'T REPORT ME BRO D: lol. <3 (we are MOSTLY talking about this topic. ON TOPIC. Now I may go a little off topic xD)

I might just quote you. I <3 it.

Maybe you should actually read my replies in this thread. I'd LOVE to see where I disrespected anyone in this thread.

Things like this don't really belong in melee discussion. There is a thread titled "Something bothering you" that this would fit perfectly on. Post this there

Ruby if you want ot make this about your problems about SMASH, then contact me via PM, however htis doesn't seemt o be about smash, but about something bigger, and needs to go in the thread specified.
