Too much looking inward and analysing ourselves. Too much victimhood and turning things into trauma that aren’t traumatic. We aren’t special. There has been a shift in raising kids making seem like they are super important and special. They grow up and realise they aren’t important and it causes issues.
When something shitty happens, it is what it is. Get on with it.
I’m going to cop some shit for this.

Not from me.
Whatever happens, whatever problems you have…they’re yours to solve. You can bitch about them. You can let them derail you. You can blame them for your life. But the Kool Aid Man ain’t busting through a wall to solve them for you. You have to do that.
sure, if you want to be defeatist and surrender your control to the whims of life.
Fuck what it was.

Yeah, sure, bud. People are just going to move on immediately after losing a loved one because “it is what it is”
And why do you care about how people deal with their issues?
I became so much happier when I started having this mindset. Before I used to snap at people and blow up if they did something to me, I used to care what people thought, I used to have sleepless nights about my fears of being unsuccessful.
But honestly I started saying….it is what it is. Especially when it’s out of my control I just don’t care. If it is in my control then I just tell myself I’ll do what I can and everything will fall into place…and it always does.
