7 questions about adulthood I've been meaning to ask myself for the last year

"And I'll probably still be evading the same truth I'm evading now: that the life I ended up with, much as I complain about it, was pretty much the one I chose. And my dissatisfactions with it are really with my own character, with my hesitation and timidity."
Really makes you think, huh?
I copied it and saved it in an email draft as a reminder to take control over my own life. To own my choices, and to understand that what I have now is what I have chosen, and what I'll have in the future is what I've yet to choose.
And, then, slowly, my email drafts-as-reminders started to multiply. I kept stumbling across questions - guiding questions, if you will. Questions smart people suggest asking yourself to figure out what you want, how you can do better, and where you want to go.
Questions about all the trappings of adulthood: career, relationships, money, fitness, joy.
Below, find the questions I've starred - the ones I've meant to ask, but haven't quite gotten around to (a distinct choice in itself). I hope exposing them to the light outside my drafts folder maybe will help you ... or, at the very least, get me to finally sit down and think.
