431. It is OK not to be OK
You have to be willing to admit that you are not OK. Say the quiet things out loud. The things that make you feel unworthy, less than, valueless, unqualified. Admit them to yourself and to those that you trust. Shame dies in the light.
Box owners are uniquely gifted (and not in a good way) at living lives of quiet desperation. That needs to stop. Right now. We want you to be happy with the life you are living. And the first step is admitting when you are not OK.
