>I don't know what I have that I could offer him that he can't get elsewhere.This is what will eventually doom, not only this, but anything you will attempt in life. It isn't a clear cut confidence or self-image issue, but it is connected.
I know exactly where we are and I know the mantra, but we are so force fed in this day and age how we are not unique, everyone is the same, you don't matter, you are just like everyone else and I can't even begin to imagine a more destructive and damaging philosophy to tell other people but most of all ourselves.
No one in this life has your perspective, no one has experienced things quite the way you have. Your thoughts might not be original and authentic, but no one but you have thought them in your way.
You have to start loving and digging that, this is your adventure. There will be highs, there will be lows, but they will be yours and you should really own that because when you think about it, that's a fucking amazing thing.
Once you open yourself to the idea that you have a value and that value can be offered to the universe you'll notice things starting to change. It's not going to be by the turning of a switch, but more gradually, like lights being dimmed.
This is were you're at now in your life, and you should be amazed that you don't know what the future hold. Any moment, right around the corner something unpredictable might show up that reinvents the story you thought you were on completely.
Remember when you were a child and everything amazed you, there were so many things to learn, so many things to see. Why do we lose that wonder and amazement towards the world? I'm not advocating we act like children, but rather that we retain the sense of wonder and amazement that children have. They are inquisitive and open to new thoughts and ideas, sometimes they ask questions and they simply can't believe what you're telling them.
