Your thoughts aren't == to you. Your mind is literally a monkey facepalming onto a keyboard 24/7, telling you to worry about the most random trivial things. Don't think too much, you are slowly killing yourself by overthinking.

#22Stay on the moral high ground. Once you get into the moral low ground, it's very difficult to get out.
Forgive faster. Be kind. Don't speak or write hurtful words. Trust people, but don't confuse trust for hope or laziness.
Do the work first and the money will come. It's not the other way around; income is a recognition of the work. Even your first salary is a reflection on grades/college/interview results. When freelancing, it's a reflection of how convincing the proposal is.

#23Life is a marathon not a sprint. Make a plan for weeks or even years. And stick to the plan.
Failure is sometimes the best outcome. Not because everything burns but because you can learn from mistakes. The sooner and harder you fail, the better.
Most people will follow anyone who shows confidence.
