Stop Trying So Hard

January 11, 2025

Since the start of 2025 (not really my new year's resolution), I want to stop trying.

Not stop trying in the sense of giving up — I just want to stop taking things so seriously and doing what feels right. I want to worry less and stop planning and calculating so much. I want to stop optimizing so much.

I just want to do what feels right and do what I enjoy. If I make a mistake, I want to easily forgive myself and just learn from it.

What is the point of caring too much? There is only so much that is up to us. Might as well enjoy what I do and not get too hung up on things.

Anyways, I do believe things will be the way they should be eventually. I do believe in some “destiny”.
