Reply to LPT how do people have a strong mindset and self-discipline to succeed in life? how do they create so much awareness in life and willingness to learn? by Akashh23_pop

I don't think I'm super successful or anything, but I do think I'm not doing too bad for myself. A few things that I always keep in mind tho:

  • Comparison is a thief of joy. If you really must compare, compare with your past self instead.
  • 1 folded laundry is better than 0 folded laundry, as in it's better to take one tiny step rather than not take any steps at all
  • Receiving help is not a sign a weakness! I had to visit my school's free counseling services a few times simply cuz I thought I could use the help from a professional.
  • When things go wrong, I like to give myself some time so just process and wallow in it. Like "ok you have 1 hour to cry and drown in self pity" and I would literally set an alarm lol. Once the "feels time" is over, then I'll try to focus on finding a solution.
