marraige material

I made a list of everything I want in a wife. It's pretty detailed, so in a bullet point list, it is 3 pages long.

I compared myself to the character qualities in my list and realized that I don't match up to my own standards.

The biggest thing I need to work on is discipline. A blogger I used to follow a few years back said this, and this is now one of my favorite quotes/words of wisdom: "Try to do something everyday that you don't want to do."

If I actually went out of my way to do things that I didn't want to do, it would build my character and develop discipline. But, I haven't been doing that.

Going off to college, I've been thinking about relationships a lot considering that the majority of married couples in the US met in college. Sure, i'm really young, and i've never been in a serious relationship before... or any relationship for that matter. But, I want to prepare myself for being marraige material.

I don't want to be another one of those steryotypical testosterone filled, heavy headed, slow thinking, cliche phrase saying, repugnant guys. I want to be different. I want to be someone that is above the average, cliche, and normal. I want to be exceptional.

I, of course, have a ton of work in order to improve... but, i'd like to start now.
