    Did you ever go through depression before you made that shift or any kinds of internal conflict?

    You know what's was interesting, If I described to you my behavior during a certain period of my life, you're going to say, whoa, you were depressed. I didn't identify as being depressed at the time. I felt lost. And I guess the only

    a lot of people feel that at that early age

    the only thing that maybe I would say is the reason it didn't feel like depression to me was I wasn't unhappy, I just felt like, I don't how to get where I want to be. I just don't understand.

    And you feel better about yourself and life just being around them. And by the way, they think in this positive way that's moving you toward your goals and it's rad. So that was the shift, and then it was like, once you get that first taste of, whoa, this person is making me a better version of myself. I want to be around other people like this. And I want to be that for somebody else. I want to light them on fire and be like, yo, you can do this, we got this! And that fits so well with my natural personality of I love seeing other people win. So it was such a sketchy place for me to be where I was, I felt bad about myself if they were better than me. But yet, I wanted them to win. It was super weird. So you just have to change what you build your self-esteem around.

    It's got be a counselor, not a jailor.

    Yeah. Exactly. So in the beginning, no, and then as I started pursuing a real goal-driven path, then I realized I need to be around people that can help me achieve that goal. And the good news is it's not, "Oh, I'm hanging with these people that can help me achieve my goal, and I don't like them, and they're jerks." It's like you find beautiful, amazing people that can help with that. It's not like your choosing between good people that won't help you on your path, and bad people that will. It's like you find the most amazing, beautiful, uplifting, inspiring human beings that make you feel like a better version of yourself.

  • Correction on punctuation if needed?

    I wanted people that looked up to me. I wanted people that I was--in my chosen craft that I was better than. I wanted people that made me feel like I'd sort of already made it. That's just like death. Doing that is so stupid and if I could go back in time and challenge myself and put me around people that blew me away. But people who are better than me really made me feel insecure and that insecurity really did eat at my ability to perform. So it's actually pretty interesting because you do have to find that balance. I don't think people should try to silence the negative voice in their head. But, I also don't think they should succumb to it. I think you should listen to the negativity because it will call out **** that's real. You're not working hard enough, you're not good at this. You're absolutely right. But if I let that affect how I feel about myself, now I become self-destructive. So that voice has got to be that voice of clarity. It's got to be the O'****. That's the thing I need to work on, got it!

  • Please help on correct punctuation?

    so you re going to morph depending on the ideas that you surround yourself with. And that s why I m such a voracious reader because I spend way more time with writers than I do even with my friends, just cause the sheer amount of time I dedicate to reading.

    Absolutely, and it s so true. I found that in my own life as well. And I think Tony puts it perfectly, he says that most people rise to the expectations of their peer group.

    They did a study and found that most people, most veterans that served in the military, that be the time they come back, a lot of them deal with PTSD and stress and depression, all kind of issues like that. Finding that the strongest point in their life or their career was actually when they were in the service. And it s because they felt a sense of purpose, a sense of camaraderie, a sense of standards. And they come back to civilian life and it s just, they just show up. There s no standards, there s no integrity, there s no value system, there s no strength being exercised. So I think that s totally, totally true.

    Was that a conscious effort for you to surround yourself with better people, or did it naturally start happening as your thoughts shifted into wanting to take control of your life?

    It wasn t in the beginning. In the beginning, I really was hanging around with people that made me feel good and they fed into the "King of Remedial Jobs" phase that I was in.

    This is a pleasant 61-year-old gentleman who has been experiencing dizzy on exertion. I understand that his CT scan has shown some emphysematous changes, and he was a smoker until 1992. In an effort to rule in the coronary cause of his dizziness on exertion, he underwent stress testing in October. At that time, he did do 10 ½ minutes without chest pain, ECG changes or any abnormality _____________ (sound's like) unperfused imaging. This particular function was normal.

    The CT scan that was done to evaluate his lung parankima did show some very mild calcification in his ALD. I talked to radiology about that, who reviewed it again for me and said he had some very minor accumulation of calcium in his left tube and descending.

    Today's exam was completely unremarkable except for him being overweight and having a blood pressure of 140/92.

    IMPRESSION: At this point, given his extremely normal effort tolerance on the treadmill, absences of angina, ST segment changes or any profusion abnormalities; I think it's unlikely that there's a cardiac contribution to his dizziness. Given the calcium in his ALD, which is minor, I would encourage aggressive risk factor modification. As such, his lipid should be evaluated again if they have not been checked in awhile, and addressed accordingly.

    We certainly appreciate the opportunity to participate in his care.
