I was told that by a therapist a long time ago, but it took me a while to figure out what it really means in terms of my own psychology.

I'm doing a lot better with it now days, and it's not really a big problem compared to what I've gone through in the past. It can be beneficial in some regards. I think it's what compels me to get all 'A's in school.
