The “#1.5,” is that we have often developed “loneliness-inducing habits,” that need to be broken. We don’t necessarily have any real “issues,” other than we’ve just gotten used to “hanging out with ourselves.”

Breaking habits isn’t easy. It’s nearly impossible, if we have a compulsive disorder, but, then, we’d be #2.

The key to anything is willingness. If we don’t actually want to do something, then it ain’t happening.

But there’s a hell of a lot more #2, than folks are willing to admit.
