Hey everyone, things are going really well! I have so much to share, especially about mindset. Lately, I’ve been focusing on improving my work mindset and productivity. I’ve been reading a lot about deep focus, planning, and optimizing my ability to learn. All of this is helping me become more productive, and I’ve finally accepted something important—I genuinely love to work. I love pushing myself, doing difficult things, and tackling tasks I may not feel like doing in the moment because I know they’ll lead to a better future.
I’ve also been learning a lot about dopamine and subconscious decision-making. It’s crazy how many choices we make without even realizing it. For example, I noticed that every time I struggled with a hard task, I would instinctively get up to grab something to eat—without even thinking. It was just a pre-programmed habit. And I started realizing there are so many of these subconscious routines in my brain that I want to change. Of course, autopilot can be useful in some areas, but in others, it’s holding me back. Now, I’m working on becoming more aware of my actions so I can take control instead of just reacting automatically.
I also had an incredible conversation with a teacher and a guest speaker at school. I asked them about their work ethic and work-life balance, and for the first time, I truly felt understood. I don’t find happiness in just watching TV every night or sleeping in every day. What makes me happy is working, being productive, and creating something meaningful. For a long time, I struggled to accept that because most people around me choose short-term satisfaction and spend a lot of time on leisure. But when the teachers shared their perspectives, it validated everything I’d been feeling. It was such a powerful moment for me.
By the way, I’m hoping to release the ticket link for my own show soon! My goal is to sell out the venue, and everything I’m learning and doing right now is leading toward that. I’m super excited!
There’s a lot I’m figuring out, and I love it. I thrive on setting new challenges and working toward ambitious goals because they’re things I truly want for myself. One thing my teacher said really stuck with me: "You’re the director of your own life. You write the script." That hit me hard. It made me realize that I still care too much about what people think of me, and I don’t want that anymore. It’s tough to switch off those thoughts, but I know it’s necessary. Sometimes, caring about other people’s opinions can subtly influence my decisions and emotions without me even realizing it. Now, I’m working on shifting my mindset—I don’t need external validation. I live my own life, do what I love, and pursue what makes me happy.
