Ingredients:

1 quart of self-doubt
1 bag of self-confidence
a dash of lingering
1 carton of tears of self-pity

Place self-doubt in a pan on the back burner, over a medium heat until boiling furiously.  Pour into a mug.
Take one bag of self-confidence and dip it in the boiling self-doubt.
Let steep, while you linger.
Open the packet of recklessness, sprinkling it wildly.  Don’t be afraid of knocking the cup over.
Open carton of tears of self-pity, and add liberally until the cup overflows.
