@blind. being funny to amuse myself? I've never thought of that. When I thought of funny I always thought of amusing others...Ive been taught not to seek approval but deep down I've always just wanted people to like/accept me. I feel this is very difficult to remove from a persons head (seeing as I feel that's a normal feeling).
You don't need to want not to amuse others, you just need to see that amusing yourself will amuse others. You ever been around someone who's just fun to be around? Well you have every ability he has when it come to being fun, use it.

Your the first person that told me i may not be happy with myself and your right. I always think to myself "What if I was like like will smith, or had the confidence of brad pitt, tupac or whoever". I always think to myself what if I was someone else. It's almost like I want to escape. Hell even my online identities ( a well known artist...Cisco is him) has more fame then Mark (me). What does Cisco do that Mark doesn't? All he does is draw/pixel very well and he worshiped by other artist because of it. Even multiple girls Cisco has never met have fallen in love with Cisco not because of him...but just because of his skill. True Story...I feel like life is about status...Girls will crawl to the super star basketball player just because he is very well known and they too want that status...Mark doesn't have that, but Cisco does. This world is crooked...
Reframe, try to apply that art to your offline life, Think "What would Cisco say/ do"

I have some sort of self-sacrificing trait as well. I feel better knowing others feel better. Idk...I may lose an argument or speak less knowing it will make someone else feel better. Yeah thinking about it now, makes me seem weak.
I was like that, I always felt apathetic toward myself, so if someone made a big deal about something "Eh, whatever, have it your way." You gotta realize, you have control over your own life, no one else does. If you don't go after what you want, no one else will.

Lately I've been trying to think more like a king. Someone who is hungry for power. A chief, someone that's gets more than the necessary resources. In order to help me catch up to the other normal 20 year olds...Idk. Life is complicated. I'm not asking you guys for more though, you don't have respond any more. Perhaps that one hint from blind was enough to get me thinking on the right path.
Focus less on more, and more on more. Think about what you have now that you didn't have then, and watch as that always increases.
