It would be quite assumptive to believe that is like everyone else, as in, that everyone else is experiencing life in that way. 

Everyone has their own way. I don't really know what other people experience tbh. I assume lots of people struggle with bad habits, mistakes, failure etc on their road to success if they choose to take a path of personal growth. But, some people maybe are perfect. Idk.

 

Thank you for your kind words. You are right I am exactly where I need to be. Seeing as there is no where else.

I will improve.

Passed this one with an 82%...

I am learning that if I worried less this weekend I would have likely passed the other one which I failed by 3 points.

Will take this lesson of neurotism, self doubt, lack of self compassion and improve.

Looks like I am getting my diploma... I feel blessed.

@Thought Art Congratulations.. on both passing the exam and using failure to learn your lesson and improve!

@Mz Hyde I just want to be successful. I don't know how much more living as an idiot I can take. 

Success is the progressive realisation of a worthy ideal. You are not finished when you fail, you are finished when you quit. So don't give up

I like that. Reminds me of Do You by Russel Simmons. He said something along those lines.

I didn't quit, but I felt like it. But, hey. As long as I am trying I will succeed and fail... They both in the end are success.

Just like love and fear and Love.

I have a habit of talking myself into failure with these negative cognitive distortions induced by fear, self doubt and self pity. It's something to notice. I sense I did pretty well once I got to writing my exams today. Had I been less distraught last night, I'd likely passed both my exams today.

Also, as I grow as a mature adult and student... I will simply improve as I go about life.

It's the fear that is a problem.

I guess I always have that choice. Love or Fear. I will choose Love for now on.

And love myself when I fall into fear.

And on we go until I reach the promised land.

However, I may not even need the payroll certification, but it would be nice to have. I pass some of the modules for it. Just need to retake two within the next 2 years.

 

Thanks everyone for your kindness. It nice to not feel alone and to have your words of wisdom for support. Much love. One Love.
