One step at a time......the good thing is that you have identified your problem.....now take each traits and work on it......when you conquer one you go for another.......best of luck

Knowing what you want and going for it is the first thing. Ensuring you desist from whatever bad things you inherited from your dad will definitely go a long way.

sad
Start by forgiving yourself and then your father. If you do not admit and accept there will be no change. Sh.it is spiritual. You have no power over it...you are your father's son after all.

The life you live is your choice, do not blame your dad lifestyle.
A slept on secret.

Once you've come of age there's a silent disclaimer one should bear in mind always, you are responsible for your actions and inactions, stop trying to find a reason not to be held accountable to yourself.

you just need to discipline yourself,I've been in your shoes,it's up to you make the decision even if it's in your DNA.
sometimes you'll be reminded this are Father's traits,it's just for you to decide and discipline yourself.

Stop blaming another man for your actions.
Self reliance is the key.
You only require your own validation.
The only person you should depend on is yourself.
You are the only one who can, and will save you.

(1) Write down the behaviors,
(2) Make a conscious effort to unlearn them especially if you are hurting other people
(3) committing to changing for the better

Life is short, what do you want your legacy to be ?!?!

Your dad lived his life the best way he can

Try and live your own life the best way you can and stop using your dad's lifestyle as a cover up for your wrongs

Narcissist. Look up the Word. Besides the psychological aspect it has spiritual significance, it's called jezebel spirit. You need to be delivered. You can look for genuine deliverance ministers and get your life right.

It is foolishness for young folks to repeat the wrong habits or characters of his parents. Most especially MEN.

Living a outstandingly life starts by taking one's parents life as reference.

Whether good or bad, it makes one stand out.

Blood is thicker than watter. So the way out is this, add more watter to soften it, by behaving like God, or by softening ur heart if his is had, or by moderating it, if his heart is Soft.
