I don't want you to try to turn off this addicted personality. I want you to direct your addicted personality because we need you. Because you are the person that is built to push through obstacles. You are the person that is built to not accept. No. You are the person who is built to have a dream and a vision. And no matter what anyone else says, to keep going at it until you get there or die trying. That's what you're supposed to be doing. And I don't think that you're broken. I think you're just pointed in the wrong direction.
