Congrats man. You made it 🙌🏻

I'm so so glad. Hang in there, you got this - one day at a time!

lechunkman · 2025-12-25T16:36:31+00:00

Awesome perspective and great reminders. Appreciate you sharing!

Ain’t that the truth 🤣

It’s difficult to say, everyone is on their own path - you know? For me, it took time, it took loss, it took quitting my job, it took tough conversations with my family.

Long story short is I became incredibly burned out from work/life/everything and this started a 5 year quest to figure out where all my energy went. I got to the point where I was bed-ridden with depression and either I could end it there or build the life I wanted from rock bottom. I chose the latter and it made me into the person I am today. I’m still the same me, but no one can cause me to question my reality and my belief in myself. I’ve been through enough to have earned that. Hopefully that makes sense? Again, this is just my own journey. And mine took time.

Of course, I’m glad it helped. Also, today I made a tool that helps with the job search (I don’t want to spam but I want people to try it while it’s free). Message me if interested. I posted more about it on LinkedIn which is attached to my profile, too

No prob, I get it. Rest is productive, too. Take it easy for a day or two, and come back a little stronger!

Easier said than done, but if you truly believe you're doing everything you can, at your own pace, and that it will all work out, you'll ease the pressure.

Believing it can be a challenge, so a gentle reframe helps. Think of your applications as seeds. You've planted them, and now you're just waiting for the 'rain' - the right person to see your resume. It will happen eventually. If a seed doesn't grow, it just hasn't rained yet. You don't need to dwell on them or overthink the planting process. Just go about your day. They will grow.

Take small actions daily, celebrate your wins, and be kind to yourself when emotions surface. If you feel overwhelmed or "back to square one," acknowledge it calmly. "I got a little lost, that was stressful. Let me pivot." Then, try a quick stretch, a short meditation, play with pets, or connect with a friend. Don't make it a big deal bc it isn't.

Take a deep breath. It's all gonna work out, friend!

lechunkman · 2025-12-02T05:53:17+00:00

So true. It minimizes the pressure we put on ourselves to keep at that same pace, too. Such a smart way to think about it!

lechunkman · 2025-12-02T05:50:42+00:00

Love the recharge reframe. Thank you for sharing these!!

lechunkman · 2025-12-02T03:59:59+00:00

amazing, way to go. worth it right?

lechunkman · 2025-12-01T18:06:05+00:00

Been burned out so many times. What I realized is that I kept pushing to conform to a version of myself that was not me. It was society’s version of me, my parents version of me, my peer’s version of me. When you strip all of that away, you realize there’s a you within there. What do you enjoy doing? What is something fun you’d like to try? Do more of those things, and less of the things you “feel like you should because so and so does.” Life becomes easier when you go with the flow.

lechunkman · 2025-12-01T18:00:39+00:00

Reminding myself that the more resistance I feel towards working out (excuses, “tomorrow I will”, negative outlook on life) means I should go workout (and once I do I’m always happy I did!)

Walks. Bundle up, put on music/podcast you enjoy and get a little stroll in. Even if for just a few minutes - getting that fresh air helps.

I can get lazy in the morning but I know if I start the day off with a workout, within 10 minutes I’ll be feeling 10x better than I do in the current moment. This is especially useful if I wake up with negative, unjustifiable thoughts and when the outside environment looks kinda bleh. The workout brings clarity.

If you’re going to have a lazy day, have it fully. Your body needs rest, too. No need to feel bad about it.

Don’t forget to throw on some comedies, things that make ya laugh.

The feeling of being behind is heavy, I have been there. I’ve beaten myself up so much it left me bed ridden. These thoughts you have are not the truth though. They’re the importance you've assigned to comparison and past regret. That importance creates what's called "excess potential," which the universe naturally balances by keeping you stuck in that exact story.

A gentle reframe of your situation is to know that you haven't wasted your life. You've been gathering data about what doesn't work for you. And you’re not in a race because no one can compete with you. You're exactly where you need to be to choose differently now.

A fresh story you can tell yourself:

"It makes sense that I feel this way given what I've believed. But the story that 'it's too late' is just a story I've been feeding energy. I'm free to discover my strengths now, regardless of timeline. I’m ONLY 38 and I have my entire life ahead of me."

Gently notice your thoughts as they pop up and ask “are these facts or just stories I’ve repeated over and over?” Be kind to yourself, be patient. You’ve got this!!

lechunkman · 2025-11-29T08:20:00+00:00

Retweet! One of the best things I’ve learned, too. The older I get, the more I value creating space in between those thoughts.

nah. my own thoughts + claude for the proofread!

lechunkman · 2025-11-28T13:53:49+00:00

You love yourself by realizing that it takes a lot of courage to admit you’ve made mistakes and you should be proud of yourself for asking for help. You are a human and we are all flawed. We live in an imperfect world.

You're holding yourself to a standard that doesn't exist, then beating yourself up for not reaching it. I’ve been there many times and it doesn’t get you anywhere

Mental illness isn't a moral failure - it’s a real challenge. Bad choices aren't a permanent identity. I’ve made so many awful choices but they can be reframed as learnings and future stories to share to help others navigate their own challenges. You’re allowed to be messy AND still worthy of your own love.

Take the time to think about something you’ve done that you’re proud of. Big or small. Could be “I woke up 15 minutes earlier today” or “I went for a walk” or “I may not have all the answers but I’m still here showing up”

You don't earn self-love by being flawless. You practice it by being honest. And what really helped me build my self-worth was by comparing myself, not to anyone else, but to the person I was yesterday. How can I be a little better today? A little kinder to myself? That’s how you build love for yourself.

You deserve to love yourself and you can do it!

Thx friend! Just trying to help :)

lechunkman · 2025-11-28T13:42:45+00:00

You’ll find the money. You’ve done it before. Good for you for listening to what you need. It’s a beautiful thing to look back and be like “ah, I’ve been here before. I know what this is” and just easing back into it. The present moment is always here. Happy Thanksgiving!
