You know, you choose to be this bitter and critical. That's a choice.
I decided I wanted to be less angry at the people around me, to be somebody who didn't respond with anger unnecessarily. I wanted to be somebody better able to handle criticism. I wanted to be more emotionally/psychologically stable, and be less co-dependent in my relationships. I wanted to get over my social anxiety and become more comfortable around other people. I wanted to finally start a career in software development for money and stability.
These are all things I've achieved to a large degree, and it's made a huge difference in my quality of life. Yes, I have other goals now, but does that negate the value in achieving my previous goals? No. Achieving my previous goals means that I'm in a better place now to achieve other goals that can further improve my life.
