Anxiety Coffee Procrastination Break
Most of our self–doubt comes from comparing our messy inner world to everyone else’s polished exterior.
You know your whole chaotic inner life.
You only see everyone else’s edit.
So if you sometimes worry you’re a fraud, that isn’t proof you’re fake.
It’s proof you’re honest enough to notice the gap.
I am not telling you to make the world better. I’m just telling you to live in it.
Not just to endure it, not just to suffer it, not just to pass through it, but to live in it.
To look at it. To try to get the picture. To live recklessly. To take chances. To make your own work and take pride in it. To seize the moment.
Joan Didion
You don't have ideas because you don't read.
You can't articulate ideas because you don't write.
You can't leverage ideas because you don't build.
You feel bored, anxious, or overwhelmed because your mind wants ideas to flow but you won't let them.
