Agreed, I just know that it is human nature to do what we want ( our inner brat....), so I don't worry as much about that. I spent the afternoon at the gun range to make my inner brat happy (it worked, LOL) , but I also taught a Lady how to shoot her concealed carry pistol. The instruction she had been given didn't work for her, so I showed her a modified crush grip that allowed her to control! This allowed me to show her how to squeeze the trigger, and hit the target.
A friend was given a lump of rust that turned out to be a 36 calibre Colt Navy replica of a 1861 black powder pistol. I've been walking him through a recovery and repair cycle. Not perfect yet, but we were able to shoot it yesterday, he was thrilled!
It was fun for me, to watch them grow. So it does all round out in the long run. I got one of mine that was having trouble to get it to cycle properly...to cycle, and found my shoulder was finally up to a real recoil. My Son was able to join us after he got off work, and one of the other shooters came over to me and told me he was Good! Nice to hear.
Asking questions can be a nightmare for me right now, since I lost her in April! Did I do all I could? Those questions are dark and numerous, and can't be answered this side of sanity! My head knows I did it right, but my heart....
So external focus helps right now, so I'm buying SCUBA gear.

I understand what you're saying, but I guess I wasn't so much talking about doing what a person wants, but determining what actions one feels are the right ones in life, like helping others for instance. Maybe a question one may ask themselves is, "have I been of assistance to my fellow humans and made a difference to someone's life today?" Just an example. My point being that if a person doesn't delve into themselves a little it's difficult to see (as clearly) better ways forward.
I think you get it, we're maybe just saying it differently.
Likely the same ideas, we think a lot alike. Introspection is a door to the future! This has been a bad year here, hoping for better!
We're fighting to renew the lease on the food bank we use for the homeless meal. Just one more problem to solve.

That's a bugger, but I'm sure you'll find a way to work around it and keep the process rolling.
Plan on it! We have to cook a dozen turkeys with all the fixings this time. Its the hardest homeless meal month! We will start shortly, and slice and freeze them; it will cut down on the work as we get closer to serving.
