I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.

it’s crazy how you have to be embarrassing to be less embarrassing

you should get a second evening for reading fan fiction. And you should get an extra day in the week to do arts and crafts.

life is frying me up in a frying pan doing big impressive flips and everything

so far one theme of the 30s for me has been realizing that literally every human being on earth who appears completely cool and collected and together with it at first glance has some threshold past which enough known information about them will shatter that mystique completely. i don't even say this negatively or pessimistically it's just been helpful to keep in mind that we're all like that.

"it's just stress" oh thank god, it's just the silent killer that slowly kills you, perfectly harmless, no need to worry
