Telling yourself that you’re supposed to be somewhere else, doing something else is telling yourself a lie. It’s coming from another lie that you’re not enough. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to improve your perspective, enthusiasm or performance, but self-acceptance comes from remembering the millions of minute factors beyond your control that have coalesced to create this moment just as it is. Feeling regret over what you cannot change is pointless. Accepting yourself as-you-are in this moment, centers you and energizes you to more confidently pursue…
The change you seek.
