In overwhelming times, my nervous system (body) takes over. So, to move forward, the best way is not to think harder or act on it first. The priority is to soothe the nervous system.

All along, quitting signifies failure to me and with it, there’s shame. I never gave myself permission to quit things that I no longer like and I would judge myself. However, to what extent do we hold on to things that no longer serve us?

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.

Whenever there’s a window for a break, I shall make “full use” of it. Being productive is my jam. Yet, there’s a price to pay.

When I see other progress, instinctively I feel that I am falling behind. I instantly felt the need to do more, be more.

“Happiness is something that comes. You don’t have to chase it”  Do you agree with this statement? Personally, I don’t think that it is the whole truth.

I know that you haven’t been feeling very happy. It seems like you have it all on the outside but you are feeling a nagging unease within.
