Well, today I was reading from J.S. Mill for a paper and the section I read was praising the virtue of the strong-willed individualist.
I'm not one of those. Although I am very stubborn in my beliefs, I get depressed and listless without a clear goal, and my will-power is not enough to keep me going somewhere when I forget why I am going there.
I need something to work for. When there isn't anything, my motivation just collapses.
I need a challenge to focus all my abilities and thoughts and energies on. Something to DO. I need to act, or to create, or something.
