Being a "potential" person is something I'm sick of. In order to truly improve my life, I'm entering 66 days of Monk Mod

I've had enough of living at 20% of my capacity. I know I talk about starting a business and making money, but my lifestyle reflects something different. Every day, I’m wasting my energy on cheap dopamine and distractions.
I'm embarking on a 66-day “Transmutation” sprint, which begins as of tomorrow. All my biological energies will be funneled into my business, as posited in Napoleon Hill's philosophy. Nothing is wasted, no justifications are given.
This phenomenon is referred to as “hustle culture.” But I fear turning forty with merely “potential.” I have to fix a complex tech problem and design a functional solution. In order to make this a reality, I am publishing this. Day 1 has finally started. I reboot when I fail. I am taking back my life.

I don’t cry, and it’s troubling me a lot.

I cannot cry, the last time I cried was when I was still a child. Even during relatives’ deaths, I could not cry, despite every other member of the family doing so. I was the only one.
And now, even when me and my lover go through terrible things, she is the only one who cries, I don’t, and it makes her feel like I don’t care enough to cry, that it doesn’t affect me nearly as much.
But it does, I do feel terrible, I do feel like crying, I feel a knot forming in my throat, a pain in my chest, I tremble and shake and god knows how I can describe it all. I do feel things, but I simply cannot cry, and I very honestly do not know the reason, but I really want to be able to cry, I want to start crying, so that I can show my feelings, and so that she no longer thinks I don’t care about her, that she is not worthy enough for me to shed a single tear over her.
