Have you read and done Self Matters?

Quote From: shadesofblue1

I made a documentary that deals with letting the past go.I interviewed people that had simular situations the parts of my past that hurt. I want to help people with this documentary but how would people respect me if the problems i covered are still a problem? Should i wait until i am older and ready to take that responsibility?
The documentary sounds like you figured out a way to hear other perspectives of what you've experienced.  Now you need to deal with the "problems" ... I know that my turning point occurred when I sat down and read and did the exercises in Self Matters and then choose situations in my life to work out why I was having problems in those areas.   I used the book to help me reinforce what I was learning.

Wait until you've overcome...

 I would wait until you can show positive results. Seeing others overcome odds, and getting information on how to go about it is inspirational.
Showing people in dire straits with no direction is depressing.
There has to be a progression with a definite goal achieved. If the goal hasn't been achieved, the work is incomplete.
