Uh oh. Lots of these points matched up with my experience a lot, but the following hit me hard
"You have emotional difficulty with personal intimacy but demonstrate significant professional success."
As a personal anecdote, I have been finding much more fulfillment ignoring any plans I have of a perfect project and just focus on the "first actionable step" I can take in front of me
Want to work on a side project? Just open my notebook first. Have the book open? See what I have to do on a list, and tackle the one I can do right away. Challenge myself to not think ahead
Want to get more physically fit? Rather than focusing on the long term goal, focus on what I do TODAY. Don't focus on how I missed a workout or ate a huge burger yesterday. Focus on what I can do today to keep up with that goal
Want to build more social peers? I have to meet people to do that. Find something where I can do where I will meet new clusters of people. Worry about the details later
The quote from Theodore Roosevelt really kickstarted me to think this way. "Keep your eyes on the stars but your feet on the ground"
