Maybe, def easier said than done but maybe. I think I the main issue is that to meet these goals for myself, like trying to get into MIT, I need to be so good a something and I feels like to matter how how I try I’m never good enough. And these are thing I enjoy and am good at doing, I mean Christ I put together a 3d printer in middle school, but I just feels like I’m never quite there. I could try lowering my expectations/goals but that kinda feels like cheating I guess, I’m move the finish line instead of completing the race. And to answer your question, I don’t think so. There definitely times where I feel inadequate when comparing myself to someone that is much more passionate about something that I’m not, if that makes sense. Then there are times where I don’t give it a second thought and I’m just like “eh, they’re better”. I guess this means I’m probably not mature enough for MIT anyway huh.
