I am a normal guy who tends to look at things differently for the good or bad,
I like to theorize about what could be and different perspectives, but if i had to say a credo that i held as my reality it would be that "you are what you think about" 
every time I have a negative thought i is not just a lucid concept fleeting my mind it is a literal neuron racing through the synapses of my mind! and very real so when those negative thoughts enter your mind they 
start to change who you are by what you think and if done consistently enough will become a habit
just look at or "happy society"
My goal in life is to seek out new and unique perspective while bettering my self and others!
You're on the right path.
Seeing inner problems is the only way to grow and become the best you, that you can possibly be.
Keep the fight going and keep on growing
