I am often wary about celebrating success and allowing myself FEEL successful, being afraid that something might go wrong if I become too happy or "full of myself".

Planning for the worst often feels safer than aiming for the best-case scenario, especially for things that truly matter. If something goes wrong, at least you are prepared and feel less disappointed, right?

If you feel that you have failed in some way or the other, know that you are not alone. You are seen.

I decided it was time to change. I do not want to be stuck in this cycle anymore and blame myself for not achieving goals that mattered deeply to me. Enough was enough. I stopped doing these 3 things to help me achieve my goals.
