My last week truly awesome. I can't begin to express how many parts of it were amazing!
I developed a resource that introduces a new concept, designed to help anyone build their understanding from scratch. The joy of creating something that helps people learn is just amazing!
After the initial excitement, I came to a realization that my younger self wouldn't have understood.
The moment you start only agreeing with those who praise you, you risk losing your sharpness and becoming vulnerable to mistakes.
It’s not that you shouldn't celebrate your achievements, but it’s important to remember the hurdles you faced along the way. People are strange; they crave comfort yet are ready to face numerous challenges to obtain it. They seek comfort and then discover that the real thrill and satisfaction lie in the journey, not the comfortable outcome.
I learned this the hard way when I mistakenly equated comfort with success, believing it was the ultimate goal. For a while, I wasn’t truly happy—I was merely content and not challenging my mind enough.
Being content for me meant being complacent—settling for the easy path, avoiding deep thinking at any cost. This complacency led me to rely more on habits than on generating new ideas.
While habits can streamline routine tasks and free up mental space, they become a constraint in environments that require innovation and critical thought.
This realization sparked a shift in my approach: from depending on habits to fostering fresh ideas, especially in situations that demand critical thinking and solving new, significant problems.
I've developed a personal mantra that keeps me grounded. Every time I deliver something truly amazing, I remind myself, 'Your masterpiece is yet to come; don’t rest on your ass—this is just a page in your biography.'
I celebrate my victories, but I make sure they don’t define me. I believe that my true masterpiece will be in my next project, and I strive to make that my best work yet.
I'm fully aware that my perspective is evolving, and I might be completely off the mark. I'm exploring and learning as I go. The journey of understanding is ongoing, and each step, whether it clarifies or confuses, offers lessons.
Notes from last week:
Overthinking invents more problems than it solves.
If your compassion extends only to people you like or agree with, your compassion is selfish, and therefore not compassion.
The voice in your head is not you, and it’s not honest.
Nothing great came without a drive for perfection.
Nice,Proud feeling.Keep going to new levels.
