This is free advice from an expensive psychologist. If you’re an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don’t make everything a matter of life and death.
parents: "move out"
girlfriend: “quit being such a loser”
boss: "work harder"
claude: "uber for dogs (the dogs are the drivers) is a great idea, you should absolutely pursue it"
if you have:
1. little to no expenses
2. parents who support you
3. no one that depends on you yet
then my friend, you should be taking insane amount of risks
I keep meeting men in their thirties who still talk about what they’re “going to do” like they’re still twenty-two. At some point the dream stops being a dream and becomes a lie you tell yourself so you don’t have to admit you got scared and stayed small. The clock is not waiting for you to feel ready.

Ebeveynlerin aşırı korumacılığı, çocuklarının zihinsel sağlığını sessizce zehirliyor.
44 araştırmayı kapsayan yeni bir meta-analiz, “overparenting” (aşırı korumacı ebeveynlik) ile çocukların anksiyete (r=0.16), depresyon (r=0.20) ve genel yaşam memnuniyetinde düşüş olduğu saptandı.
En çarpıcısı ise bu zararlı etkinin kültür, ebeveyn cinsiyeti ve çocuğun gelişim evresine göre değişkenlik göstermemesi; yani “iyi niyetli” aşırı yardımın aslında bağımlılık, kaygı ve mutsuzluk ürettiği gerçeği.
Araştırma, iyi niyetle sarılan bu “helikopter ebeveynlik” modelinin, çocukların bağımsızlığını ve ruh sağlığını sistematik olarak baltaladığını net biçimde gösteriyor. Kısacası: Fazla korumak, aslında zarar vermektir
Flirting is a way of life. It is smiling at pretty girls, complimenting strangers, whistling back at birds and pushing your car just to feel it. It is saying what you mean, telling the risky joke, walking in like you already belong. It is treating every stranger like an old friend and finding beauty in completely ordinary moments. The people who are truly magnetic are not just flirting with people — they are flirting with life itself. That warmth, that boldness, that unashamed love for being alive is the most attractive thing a human being can carry. Never lose it.
I have never seen an animal commit suicide.
I find it interesting that animals, especially apex predators, don't appear to conceptualize “hopelessness” the way humans do.
Even at the brink of death, they fight, bite, claw, and persist without turning their suffering into despair.
However exhausted you are from trying, I promise you this: if you don't give it your all, never find out what you could have become, and spend the rest of your life wondering, the resulting coping mechanisms will take a much greater toll on you than the work ever would.
