I guess allot of people don't have depression ... I don't like how I am and want to change but it isn't easy when you can barley get out of bed. I have tried all the different med cocktails too. I suppose that would be my New Years resolution . Try to get motivated

You have to give every day everything you've got. If not, you're not living it up. Find a reason to smile and laugh every day, even if it's at yourself. Enjoy life and its gifts.

When the Poll question asks, "Up to 50% OR MORE", doesn't this, in essence, translate to from 0% to 100%? If I'm gettin' that right, I'm compelled to answer "Yes".

I set goals for myself. Doesn't matter what it's for either, restoring our 130 yr old home, designing a new quilt, learning a new recipe. I set and raise the bar for myself.

-tion system, unable to do anything about it due to financial constrains and being a first generation American with limited resources. I'm not sure how lucky well-established families here realize they are, but every scrap of educational enrichment I achieve I need to struggle for due to no

the same age as me. I breeze through my classes easily and never have to study and I feel that my education is being dumbed down for the baseline student. And while that's great for that baseline student, who is finally able to comprehend the material, I'm over here in satisfied with my local educa-

@theDude1, I completely agree. I've often been called, not to boast because I'm not really proud of it, a "genius" or "extraordinarily smart", and while I appreciate the sentiment expressed, I don't really agree because I can be BETTER and I'm not that smart YET compared to kids from, say, China at

I have to ask, how old we're you last year? Because at my age, which is an age usually associated with that type of stuff, I definitely feel right now what you felt a year ago. And how did you even get over something like that anyway?

I don't make new years resolutions because if it's worth doing, I make it a goal TODAY. Every day is too precious to waste it being mediocre. Restful sometimes, reflective, not always on full tilt activity, but always thinking, learning, sharing, hopefully some good.

Don't think that just because you are a teenager you can't be your best self right now. Your life doesn't begin in
future, your life is today. Some of the most courageous. and inspiring. people I know are young people.
Get out there and do something great with your life.

I don't see how this is related to wealth. Plus we're at different stages of life. One person is in grad school but has huge school debt. I imagine that person is working their butt off & being creative. Maybe they'll be wealthy later, maybe not. And I don't know that *everyone* has the potential.

I guess we're doing a bit better, we still don't have permanent full time employment and are working for a lot less money! I worked about 7 months and my husband worked 8. Earlier this year our house was in default, it has now been reinstated so that's why it's better.

That's awesome! Hopefully that will be my case next year. I want to go to one of the top high schools in the country, I am also 2 years ahead (geometry in 8th grade) and I am looking to go into Jr. ROTC. On a side note, I was for Romney too!

A year ago I'd have said no. However this year without social anxiety I've made tons of friends and gotten to know all my friends a lot better. I feel comfortable in my own skin now and it's a great feeling, so yes, I'm closer to my full potential.

I am really lazy most of the time. I need to buckle down and do something important with my time. I'll get around to it... Lol.
