Do you worry that you might be wasting your life?

Do you feel like you're constantly doing things that don't feel valuable?

Do you get anxious that your to-do list only seems to get longer and you only seem to get older?

And the world is speeding up and holy

balls it's already 2024 yeah of course you do we all do and like the rest of us

advantageous to choose to be bad at something or just to not do something at all.

Yes, I hear the overachiever screaming in horror when I say that, but please stick with me here.
