If you don't mind, I'd like to ask you some questions about that. I'd just like to understand your opinion a little better. Just curious - and - I understand if you'd rather not respond...no problem there...

Who will judge you - and - on what basis? How can you know how well you're doing? Is that up to you to decide?
