I’ve Stopped Trying to Optimize Every Part of My Life

from Embrace The Unseen · host Embrace The Unseen

I spent most of my life believing I needed to improve myself. There was always another habit to build, another routine to fix, another version of me I was trying to become. Eventually, I started to realize that all the optimizing wasn’t making me feel better—it was making me feel more exhausted. This is a reflection on what changed when I stopped trying to fix every part of my life and started letting things be.
