I have very strong beliefs that don't go through any religion, i believe in the order of life, that everything is connected and everything happens when it happens for a reason. I spend my days telling people how to be happy and how to turn any situation around and how the miracle of life can be felt in a simple sunset. Im all spiritual and all that crap and many people seek me for advice and guidance.

But my life is a fucking wreck, i seem to go wrong on just about anything i try to do. unlike the people i advise.lol

My question is: Is it normal to be depressed and pretty desperate about life when usually im the one with all the answers?

Yeah. It's harder to look at your own life objectively than it is to look at someone else's that way. It's also harder to do something than it is to talk about it.

Yes because unconsciously you know that what you preach is hogwash that you wish were true but isn't.

I could have written this myself. I care more about other people's lives than my own. I'll go to weird lengths to try and improve someone else's life but I'll do virtually nothing for myself.

I don't mind letting myself down but I hate letting others down.

You must have an understanding heart. It is a beautiful thing. And you must carry yourself with grace through your own personal hardships that people can see. You may not see it but if people keep coming to you for advice you must be doing something right. Keep doing it and take the time to honor yourself.

Everybody wants to change the world, nobody wants to change.

its easy to preach, I do too, and its easy because, you can tell people truths you can't tell yourself because, when consulting others, you are not the one who risks failure.

Being a guy with a vast Napoleon complex I know excactly what you mean, but if you can change others, you CAN change yourself!

I'm not sure if you heard but some people don't preach what isn't the same thing they talk about, so i wouldn't believe you in case of the practice being more than what wasn't preaching to begin with.
