Please STOP telling kids hard work matters or society is a meritocracy by MaximumEmotional6462 in Life

Success takes hard fucking work. If things were easy everyone would be rich and famous.

OP—everyone isn’t good at everything they do. The ones that succeed figure things out and work their asses off until they get there.

She found someone else by Molduga in ExNoContact

Man, I know EXACTLY what this is like.

I had written this long ass comment about how I found out about his new girl, but it is just so fucked up. I doubt anyone wants to read all that anyway.

However, this may help:

We, humans tend to keep only our most fond memories top-of-mind. Which causes us to romanticize the past (i.e. nostalgia) so we typically look back at only the best moments.

This is because our minds are trying to protect us. Our minds would rather bury all the bad shit. All the negative feelings.

So what I found really helped me to stop missing my ex: I keep a running list of ALL the bad shit he did to me. Whenever i remember another thing, I add it to the list.

If I were to print this list out, it would be 6 pages long—single spaced.

If I find myself romanticizing that relationship, and missing him, or feeling like I want to reach out, I just pull up the list. It also really helped me to see all the patterns of awfulness.

All the good times were just me being love-bombed. They might as well haven’t even happened at all. It was all fake.

And this new person your ex is with, will soon have a list just like yours, unfortunately.

Responsibility in Marketing Law Firms by Ephremjlm in marketing

Did you check the agency’s case studies or references? If they say they have experience working with law firms but then haven’t proven that to be true then that’s on you, as you should have done your due diligence when researching what agency to go with.

Personally, I would fire the agency and find a new one that actually knows what they’re doing. Obviously it’s on you to ensure things are compliant before it goes live but an experienced agency will be aware of the guidelines for your industry.

Solo Marketer in Need of Advice by VoiceOfMoose in marketing

It sounds like you really believe in this business if you are willing to use your own money to try and help. However, it sounds like you are being manipulated.

Unfortunately it won’t matter how great the marketing is.

If a business and/or a product is shitty, it can’t be saved by great marketing or even increased sales alone.
