The struggle with being obsessive-compulsive when it comes to planning and the future is knowing too well what is going to happen. I gauge my plans based on what I am currently doing and how much I have achieved. These things hold a certain quality in them that may allow me to get to the next higher step in my so called fulfilled life. Now here is the big BUT. When something happens that I have not foreseen, say for example I do not fulfill a certain plan because of nonsense reasons, I have to overhaul the rest of the plans. Either find an alternative that may offer the same quality or take a detour. It may seem as the most cracked up way to live one's life, full of hardships and all but hey, it's what makes me happy in the end. It may take me years to actually be who I want to be, or maybe not at all, but at least I know I tried to map out my life. And because I am OC, I am not bothered by the fact that I may not really fulfill these dreams in the end. I already thought about it long and hard. OC nga about plans eh. I am already comforted by the mere thought of trying out my capabilities.
I developed this ability of setting up my future from disputes with people who think I will never be as successful as they are. And they aren't even that successful, really. I realize now how shallow their thoughts can get them. Small town mentality. That's it.
By the way, I am smitten over the indifference of the Japanese on what people wear. I love it! Makes me think of shopping. ;)
