Be boring. Wake up early. Exercise. Work. Learn. Do the boring things. Stick to a schedule. Do what you have to do, not what you want to. Obsess about how youβll get to where you want to be. Donβt waste your energy on anything that doesnβt help you in the long run.
Having idealistic expectations of others will traumatize you. Your pain won't allow you to understand that everyone, including you, has a part to play in why things are the way they are. You can't understand what you can't justify.
Keep doing the thing you want to be great at until its near impossible to fail. The secret is that amateurs do it until they get it right but experts do it until they can't get it wrong.
π Grief is just like a deep wound. The more you try to cover it up, the more it won't heal properly. You honestly have to fully surrender to grief to process it properly or you will stay trapped in pain.
