Your Self Concept Creates You. Your Self Concept Creates Your Life. Your Self Concept Determines The

Complaining is ugly, lazy, and pathetic.

Here’s the thing: complaining doesn’t get results. Sitting around feeling sorry for yourself doesn’t change anything. If something isn’t working, you fix it. If you want something, you go after it. That’s how I live my life, and honestly? It’s why I’m thriving.

I don’t waste time blaming other people or circumstances for where I am. The truth is, no one’s coming to save you. No one is going to hand you the life you dream of. You have to wake up every day and decide to be better, to work harder, and to keep pushing—even when it feels impossible.

Yes, I’ve made sacrifices. Yes, I’ve had to shut out the noise and put in hours when everyone else was out partying or complaining about how unfair life is. But that’s why my life looks the way it does now. While other people were finding excuses, I was finding solutions.

I’ve learned that the universe rewards effort. It rewards discipline. It rewards consistency. If you want to live an extraordinary life, you have to put in extraordinary work. And no, it’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.

So while people are out here complaining, I’ll keep showing up, doing the work, and watching my life transform. The results speak for themselves, and the best part? I’m just getting started.

I have a lot of creative energy, yet I sit mindlessly scrolling through lobotomizing Instagram reels and TikToks. I've thought countless times about what to do about my restlessness, but I stay stagnant. I want to make something personal and honest with all of my favorite things. I worry if what I make will be enough for me, I doubt myself a lot but my contentment is getting harder to come by and I think I just need to do it

Earl Grey tea intoxication

A 44-year-old man presented in May, 2001, with muscle cramps. He had no medical history of note, but volunteered the fact that he had been d

Re: blorbo from my research, here is my favorite ever case study. I'm obsessed with it.

Summary:

- Guy presents to neurology with muscle issues, very clearly has something going on but diagnostic tests are inconclusive

- History is mostly unremarkable. Key word, mostly. He drinks four liters of plain Earl Grey tea per day. For context this is nearly twice the recommended daily fluid intake. All fluids, to be clear, not just tea. He only drinks tea tho

- Bergamot is known to be phototoxic in high doses (reacts badly on your skin with sunlight)

- APPARENTLY nobody previously has consumed enough of it for it to be widely known that it is also, apparently, mildly toxic to ingest in high doses

- Guy starts drinking plain black tea again. Only 2 liters this time (he didn't have a medical reason to drink that much tea, he just liked it) and so now he's fully recovered
