Getting rid of texts rather than getting ones - My Progresses 102

I was depressed during new year's holidays. Fortunately, I'm recovering.

One reason I feel bad during holiday is that I'm overwhelmed by texts of language learning I have gotten since I began to study for English certificate tests.

Copies of past exams, practice tests, listening practice books, and word lists are all over my room.

I guess this collection of texts weighs more than 100 kilograms, and 10 full cardboard boxes.

Now I'm trying to scanning some of these texts then getting rid of them, but scanning takes unexpectedly so long time that the reduced amount of texts is two or three kilograms a month.

I scan these texts because I'm not bold enough to totally give up learning material and at least I want to keep for myself as electric data, bitmap images.

If I could figure out what is not important for my life ahead, it would be much easier to decide things I get rid of without scanning.

Am I going to be disadvantaged forever because the skin of my face and my head is too dry? This is one reason why I thought that I wanted to escape my country when I was 11 and 25. This made me learn some foreign language. However, I'm learning that overseas isn't so good as I dream about, especially as long as I go to public school. W...

It's my lack of confidence that is to be beaten

Autism, is it something to be removed? Or is it just another type of human being? I can't answer to this question. I, as you see, have language, and have a job. Although my struggles are real as well, I hear that there are a lot of cases of struggles many thousand times than mine. Ones who don't have language, or with serious behavioral problem. Although my behavioral problems, mainly social awkwardness, I can't answer the question whether autism is something that should be beaten. Instead, I can answer one question. I have to beat my lack of confidence through long struggles, if I want to succeed.
