Hello People! I am Tandavaa and this is Day 12 of the 90 days of writing challenge, so i very recently joined Oopar.club as an intern and its an amazing experience working so closely with amazing founders ( nhi mai makkan nhi laga raha ). I’m learning a lot about multiple things and its a crazy experience while i’ll talk about rest of it some other day maybe? But i remember in my 2nd week i guess, i was getting my work reviewed by Sagar and i was kinda underconfident about my ideas as in if they go/ fit in and actually makes.
Sagar: it’s great lets do it, why you kept it just in options
Harsh: i thought jyada ho jayega hence i didn’t prioritize this
Sagar: Harsh jyada ho jayega is any day better than kam ho gya ya hua hi nhi
That stuck with me, though not foreign, it resonated significantly within the context it was shared. That made me re think a lot of things - asking what the things that I love and i wanna do badly, but am not doing as i subconsciously think that it will be too much.
I ended up with a list of things that i wished to do, but didn’t cause it’ll be way too much? But as I looked at the list, I couldn't help but wonder who was really deciding that these things were too much for me. Was it society's expectations, my own insecurities, or a combination of both? Secondly if it's not done yet, how can it be too much? As i went a little deeper, I wondered if these limiting beliefs were just a form of self-sabotage. By convincing myself that certain things were too much for me, I was essentially giving up before even trying.
Basically the point i’m tryna highlight here is, We have many of the self defeating/ sabotaging beliefs about ourselves, that we dont even realise. The key is to become aware of those beliefs and thoughts and overpower them. Be scared, unsure or underconfident about something but do it regardless
(Ps: being honest, i feel this isnt ready to go out/ feels incomplete / could be better, but im gonna post regardless) as everyday counts and it adds up, even if you dont see it
Greatness is coming ⚡
