Fumbled 90k+ when I was 25. Went to a deep depression after that
But it was needed that loss made me more humble, more mature, more importantly I'm still breathing, still living. Can still run it back up again
Don’t borrow shame from the past. You are not that person anymore and you simply didn't know better. No reason to beat yourself up for it. All you can do is really do better.
in order to become a better person, you must first realize how horrible you really are. not in the dramatic sense, but in the quiet ways you sabotage yourself, repeat unhealthy patterns, hurt people who care about you, or tolerate what wounds you. you cannot grow if you keep pretending you're innocent in the story you created.
Unrelated but Nobody claps for a man while he is building. His Family doubts him & friends disappear. Then one year, results speak. And everyone acts like they believed in him.
