You have to reach the point where your fear of dying mediocre outweighs your fear of looking like an idiot. The first version of anything you do will be embarrassing, that should be obvious, but too many people let that thought keep them the same for decades on end.
Life is fleeting, and time never asks to be noticed before it passes. Make the moments count, especially those shared with the people who are near and dear to you.
The best thing about working with cracked Engineers is how much quicker you learn things. They demand so much, you may lose your sanity in the process, but you’re so gonna be amazed at how much better you’re getting on a daily basis.
Enjoying the process 🙂
If you’re in your 20s, put your head down and stop waiting for motivation or waiting for an accountability partner. Learn to do things alone. Learn to keep promises to yourself and keep going even when nobody is watching.
Shun mediocrity and don’t become comfortable with “good enough.” Set a standard for yourself that you’re proud of, then keep raising it.
Not surprised by how this played out, I really didn’t take this serious. The plan now is for me to redeem myself at the next opportunity, and not make the same mistakes again.
