I have a lot of self control.

But direction...it feels like you know you can do anything you want but stuck between all the choices. Jack of all trades when we could just master one. Energy expense is big.

A lot of pressure to be at our best.

If we don't inspire...we're as good as dead. Life has little meaning to us and ordinary run of the mill life won't cut it. The beaten path means nothing to us because we already went that path in a previous life when it wasn't beaten...so now it would just be the memory of walking in the shadow we casted before...back when the path hadn't been walked on.

I think we're more like the surge of energy someone else builds on. Like a concept, an idea...not a human being.

I know I'm speaking in terms of "we"...just my experience and other 1s I know.

At my best, I energize everyone comes into contact with me. Offer a fresh perspective and lots of tolerance. At my worst, I internalize everything and you can't reach me in any way.

Thanks for the insight.

I get it, there's a lot of self-inflicted pressure. I've got such high expectations of myself I'm never satisfied. I have a hard time asking people for help even if they know best, but I have to realise that I need them to jump start anything I want to achieve because there's always someone who does know better.

It's not so much self-control, I've got a lot of that but it's a stubbornness to do everything on our own and be different or better.

I think these people have the hardest time in life. No direction in life or focus. I also think they have very little self control. Being #1 is never easy as there is no guidance or beaten path to follow. I feel sorry for these poor souls.

Anyone here a lifepath #1 that can add to this theory I have?
hmm i never thought about it like that. I dont have a singular direction in life. I pretty much go in a few directions and towards what i am passionate about.

I have that too! I thought it was a positive thing. I definitely know where I want to go and what I want in my future it's just that I have so many crazy obstacles - like a lot of people.

Although I have noticed that people think I'm directionless but mostly because I'm quite secretive of my goals and don't talk about it. Like I almost want it to be a surprise thinking that I WILL achieve them.
lol. Yes i agree. its like a big secret then its like "look at me bitch"
