What’s something you know you do differently than most people?
I think I take the subject of self-improvement/reflection very close to heart. Often, especially when I'm puzzled about life, I physically write down or mentally take a journey through my life to see how I've changed and grown. Daily routines, friendships, attempted relationships, mentality, etcetera. I remember how I was before 'this' thing happened and what qualities altered after. This is probably why I've always liked talking about myself because I then form phrases from all of the floating feelings I couldn't find words for. I know it can come off as selfish, but to me it simply is a discussion of what my soul and body is doing. Somehow it seems separate to whatever 'me' is. Also, I write down qualities I admire and make comparisons with how other people go about life. I try to figure out what caused me to evolve over time and what phase I was going through. I'm a constant phase-r, saying in my mind I'm trying to do 'this' because of 'this' and trying to sound like 'this'. This leads to a lot of mental contradictions and arguments, thus me saying 'i don't think that even made sense.' I also wish people could just tell you how to be better as a whole, but society isn't really like that. No doubt, there's a load of people thinking of self-improvement. It's just rarely talk amongst usual conversation and evaluation isn't as mapped out I suppose. But who knows.

I like listening to your mental maps. Even if you sometimes finish wish "I don't think that even made sense." :)
