True, almost everyone has baggage. I think the difference is one of scale. For example, in grade 5 I got a C+ in fine arts. It devastated me to the point where I questioned my abilities and disengaged from schooling. Permanently. It's only been in the last few years that I've actually been able to apply myself to anything. Now, I can see that was an unreasonable reaction. At the time though, I didn't even understand what was happening. If I hadn't got a lot of help, I believe I would still be driven by my insecurities to this day and would be impossible to work with.
