My unfulfilled heart

I feel like there is an empty void in my heart that's waiting to be filled. I desire greatly to do something in life. Be it earning money, or contributing positively to society and taking care of my body.

I feel like I'm full of potential, I could've done so many things in life, but I'm not. I feel like a loser. The fact that I'm seeing people opening hotel, restaurants, and starting their business is making me feel like doing something, but I don't know what should I do.

I kept reading books, strive to fight for something like reading books, following a mentality that brings net positive results, but I don't know if those are going to really benefit me.

I feel like I could be wasting time, and wasting the golden period of my life, that I will ever get back.

I'm scared, I feel like I should be focusing on health. Because I feel like I'm trading health for something that doesn't even bring any benefits.

And I feel like my perspective in life, as well as my deep insecurity about my own worth, image, and my fear of letting my ego be destroyed, is going to hold me down, as it limits my contact with people, which prevents me from learning from people.

Why I Struggled to Connect With People

 I’ve always had a problem with socializing and finding a place where I belong. It really created this sense of loneliness, and also made it hard for me to stay in a group for a long time without feeling like my presence was a nuisance. I also found it really hard to motivate myself to put effort into being part of a group in order to make it work. But recently, I came across a concept from a book called The Courage to Be Disliked. The author says that if a person ever decides that he wants to do something, he must have the courage to do it. And in order to have the courage to do something, he must feel like he is able to bring value. That feeling — that a person is able to contribute and bring value — massively increases his confidence and sense of worth. And when he has that sense of value, then he will be able to bring himself to do what he wants, like putting effort into bringing value to a group and being part of it, eventually developing a sense of belonging. But in a working...

Learning How to Stop Escaping Myself

For the past year, I’ve felt stuck. Not in a dramatic way, but in the exhausting, lingering kind of way where nothing you do ever feels enough. No matter what I accomplish, there’s always this pressure in the back of my mind telling me I should be doing more, achieving more, becoming more. And strangely, the stronger that desire becomes, the heavier it feels. It stops being motivation and starts becoming a burden. A lot of these realizations started when I began watching Dr. K. The way he articulates human emotions is almost unsettling sometimes. He explains feelings so precisely that it feels like he’s reading thoughts you didn’t even know how to express yourself. I think part of me wants to become someone like that. Not necessarily a psychologist or self-help figure, but someone who can articulate emotions clearly enough that other people feel understood. There’s something powerful about hearing your own struggles reflected back at you in words you could never find yourself. Maybe th...

Human Imagination as a Communication Tool

The Most Underrated Communication Skill Is Letting People Fill in the Blanks The Most Underrated Communication Skill Is Letting People Fill in the Blanks Most people think better communication means saying more . More detail. More explanation. More precision. But some of the most effective communication happens when you say less — and let the other person’s imagination complete the message. Humans are incredibly good at reconstructing meaning from fragments. We do it every day without noticing. A few keywords, a shared context, and a basic understanding of intent are often enough for two people to understand each other perfectly. Once you notice this, you start realizing that communication is not just about transmitting information. It’s about triggering understanding. And the people who understand this tend to communi...
