I appreciate it sir 🙂 Don’t worry, I took it as advice (good advice) and nothing else. Much appreciated. I do feel as though I have some guilt complex at times – even when there is no need to feel this way (there usually isn’t). Not exactly sure where this comes from (perhaps my childhood). This is why Ayahusaca has appealed to me for some time (to those who aren’t familiar with the subject, it is worth researching). Here is a link to Joe Rogan’s podcast with Amber Lyon (Amber suffered from anxiety, and made an absolute breakthrough using medicine). I highly recommend it to those interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ1Dm-dcl68. Also look up Graham Hancock if you’re interested.
ANYWAYS….while I truly agree with – and value – a lot of the advice given, I still seem to plunge into regret on an almost daily basis (though these “time slots” seem to be getting smaller and more manageable). I’m not sure….is it possible to fully forgive yourself for having such a bad class, and miss an opportunity to have a relationship with an attractive girl (BASED on your own profession)? Logically, I know it was just a bad class, BUT emotionally, I feel as though it has scarred me in some way. Unfortunately, a recurring demon of mine (anxiety) was one reason the class didn’t go well (I wasn’t able to facilitate as I should have WHEN the class wasn’t going well). Despite having some anxiety, this usually doesn’t come into play with my teaching – but, happening at such a ‘benchmark moment’, it seems to have tattooed self doubt into my head…
Again, thanks everyone for the responses!
