11112020 Finals

Hello!

Hell month this month (special thanks to Covid-19) haha.

Thankful for the growth aka hardships I have overcome this semester by the grace of God & friends who really care for me.

One day, I would look back and laugh to myself knowing how much I exude my grades in school and being the people pleaser I am (or even self-pleaser).

Oh wells. This too shall soon pass, and life is a journey… and I am excited as to how I would grow after the season has end (and I have the time to reflect and review)

Off to Micrbio Finals! And another finals on friday (Envi Transport)

You got this.. or rather He’s got you!

Warzone. For memory’s sake🤍

They don’t overestimate their abilities

Shelly’s Frankenstein and Goethe’s Faust tell a wonderful cautionary tale about how even the brightest among us can suffer a tragic downfall, simply because they overreached past their limitations. Ambition and hard work are healthy and nothing to be ashamed of, but without moderation, these qualities can be dangerous.

You are likely to exhaust yourself continually, which can be indeed stressful and it can have a negative impact on your health. The insatiable desire for advancement in a particular field can cloud your perspective, and make you lose grip on other important aspects of life. Ultimately, you can end up being alienated from your peers, and it can be sad to have no one you can share your success with.

What they do instead:

Your mind has its limits, and very often actively thinking about the problem doesn’t get us anywhere. You need to know when you are stuck and to take a break. In other words, we need to allow our subconscious to grab the reins, and see what happens.

You’d be surprised just how frequently certain answers simply dawn on you. Moreover, even when the answers appear obvious, it is better to examine them again in the morning, perhaps they won’t seem as ideal as they did the day before.

Every person faces failures at some point in their lives. Nothing teaches us more than real life experiences and failures. Smart people know how to see failure as an opportunity to learn and grow. They don’t mourn over it. Unlike other people who feel like it’s the end of the world every time they face failure.

2020 — new me. Let’s go fail more, grow more, learn more! 💫💫💫
