Self

I used to be an overachiever, and, like Senate candidate, Kirk (who replaced Obama as Illinois senator), exaggerated my achievements, because I always “wasn’t good enough.” I Internalized, “Be all you can, live up to your potential”, but I always felt I came up short, so I tried harder, and kept exaggerating, test scores, did I do heroin?, now I guess I am an under achiever, not contributing my full potential to society’s and my personal betterment. But I must avoid, “If I am going to be an underachiever, I will be the best damn underachiever ever”, or I’m right back where I started. So, I don’t achieve and I don’t not achieve, thereby I have both.
