drastic changes

[josh_down]

over the past 2 or 3 hours, i've had time to reflect on my past week or so. i think i've decided that my 20th birthday (on sunday) should be a landmark for some big changes in my life to occur. i won't go into detail what they are cause i don't wanna bore the ******** of my friends;

however, i would like you to help me in another way;

i have a bad history with making drastic changes in my life. i feel that i have too much of an impulsive and non-repetitive character to hold down any kind of long-term change. i was wondering... have any of you guys out there made some drastic changes to your lifestyle? by that i mean changes which you sacrificed something that you liked for your own personal well-being. if so, then how did you manage to hold it down?

ive always sacrificed my wants for others, but for you, here is waht i say. take a piece of paper, draw a line in half lengthwise. on the left side, wright pros, right side, cons. List all the pros and cons of this change that you cann think of, no matter how trivial. once done, review lists and make decision based on wether or not the pros are worth risking the cons. hope i helped.
