  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

Probably my career accomplishments. I still don’t fully believe in myself for this role and have imposter syndrome. I fake it til I make it & put forth my best effort and hope for the best most times and it’s worked out pretty well for me.

I think my younger self didn’t really know what I wanted to be until I was in high school and even that changed shortly thereafter. My high school self may be down to know I didn’t pursue that career path but would be proud of what I did end up doing.

Also would be proud to know I somewhat came out of my shell and was able to find attractive women who were willing to date me and have satisfying relationships. Sad to know I’m still not married, but I’d hope to instill wisdom that eventually came later that a good thing takes time and is worth the wait so it’s not all bad despite the aspirations and hopes I had for my immediate future.
