I’m 24 years old. Everyone around me is constantly drilling into peoples heads the need for more: more money, more physical attraction, more more more. Holy shit THATS annoying and exhausting. Things take time and with that constant reminder from people, it gives me a sense that I’m not moving fast enough. I struggle with taking risks and chances as is, so moving fast isn’t necessarily my thing. What’s so wrong with not “leveling up” every waking moment of the day? My mental health gets in the way of even doing the slightest things to better myself and I’m tired of feeling guilty over that. I’m on my own fucking time and I wanna take time to make sure things go well, while still taking on new risks. I get that some people move differently and might just spread those messages as motivation, but that seems to be the general consensus that gives me anxiety for not being “where I should be” in life. Take the time and realize you need to tune out those voices and move at your own pace, fuck everyone else.
