For me, entering a new environment is extremely daunting, because i often overthink or overplan. I always thought defining success, planning my route is essential to survive in this new environment. However, a thought would later run across my head: Will i be able to enjoy life this way?
Often not, my answer would be: you guessed it, no.
I set goals, that is often too realistic that i wouldn’t enjoy the process, or too idealistic such that I wouldn’t be able to truly start. I like my plans to be fast and furious and structured, but i often can never keep to the structure, but procrastination often ends up blocking my way. Therefore, I typically work towards these “realistic plans”, and people would comment: why? Worse still, I never felt a strong passion in everything. “I’ll do it for the sake of doing it, not because I’m interested in it.” Evidently, this mindset would all the more push me to achieve the “realistic plans”, and as a result, I’ve never truly enjoyed any studies/ projects that I’ve done.
Is it really wrong to think this way? How am I to find out something that I’m passionate for? I dont know…
