hey turns out impostor syndrome will drive you to work yourself to death and then when you& #39;re really truly exhausted it& #39;ll be the proof you needed that you didn& #39;t cut it all along!

also: if your strict religious upbringing left you with no self-worth and tremendous guilt, turns out "working on yourself to become a better person" does not magically fix that! it& #39;s a separate whole-ass step!!
moreover: someone (parents etc.) can love you to bits and do their absolute best and still cause decades of trauma for you to untangle and hopefully only pass a little portion down to the next generations
also: if you want to help others and do good in the world, think strategically — your well-being is a prerequisite to all of that. sometimes it involves playing a little capitalism, because that& #39;s our reality, sometimes it involves taking time off - don& #39;t torture yourself!
I was raised to believe that money is the root of all evil, and there& #39;s some merit to that — but extra money also lets me provide food and a bed to others who need saving from their shitty family atm, so there& #39;s that too.
anyway: be good to yourselves so you can be good to others.
