Mind Universe

The story you write for yourself has a drastic effect on how you view what happens to you. A contamination narrative causes you to feel tainted, while in a redemption narrative, you find ways to use your pain as a tool for growth.

You could lose sense of who you are. You become stuck in a vortex that grows stronger the longer you are in it. The passion that once was your drive is no longer there, and you find yourself wondering; "How did I get here? How can I be myself again?"

Everything you do or not do has consequences. How do you handle the weight of your actions? And how do you handle self-doubt as someone who seeks to improve and become better?

You're stuck in your head. You got so used to it, you became trapped in it. You can get out, but you don't know how to pull yourself out.

You give what matters in your life value, yet along the way, you have forgotten why you do what you do. You’ve allowed yourself to be consumed by overthinking, indulging your self-destructive desires, and feeling like you’re slowly losing yourself.

You don’t want to think. You don’t want to carry the burden of facing the responsibility of having meaning and finding purpose. You would rather drown yourself in distractions and jump from one mind-numbing pursuit to the next. But what is the outcome? What are your options?

This isn’t where you belong. This isn’t who you are. This isn’t how things were meant to be. How do find yourself, after being lost?

Despite your best efforts, things don't seem to work out. Where you struggle, others seem to have it better. How do you handle yourself in the face of doubts, hardships, and a life that appears to be in Hard Mode?

You may not always be able to control the hardships that confront you, but still, you can get to choose how to handle them. You get to choose to walk your own path.

Between being so selfless to the point that you allow others to take advantage of you, and confusing selfishness with self-love.
