甩掉迷茫-不要再觉得你应该无所不知

甩掉迷茫

 

Stop feeling like you should have all the answers

 

Uncertainty¹ is the way things are, and trying to fight is like trying to fight an angry bear with a wet fish. It'll just leave you exhausted², scared and broken. So relax a little. Understand that uncertainty is natural, and know that doing your best is plenty good enough as a response.

 

Prioritise play over success

 

Extrinsic³ success is easy, cheap even. So it's through play—through engaging with the things that make you feel joy or connected and experience more success than fitting in with expectations will ever give you.

 

Stop comparing

 

停止抱怨

 

Today, every time you compare yourself to someone else, you threaten to undermine your self and your efficacy, or inflate⁴ your ego⁵. Comparison is irrelevant⁶. The only thing that's relevant is your ability to approach a decision.
