Constantly striving to impress those around you is going to burn you down, and if left, you'll never discover yourself. I have been guilty of that many times, living in fear of having a boring life and being lonely, but it's something I've both accepted and now enjoy.
</center>

<center>
In today's society, it's troubling that many people chase money, Instagram followers, and popularity as measures of success. This obsession often overshadows genuine values.
</center>

<center>
I've had a shift in mindset, moving away from the exhausting need to impress others and instead focusing on myself. I've rediscovered the joy of diving into my many hobbies like i have said in my previous couple of posts here on Hive. Exploring space and astronomy, walking through nature, diving into books, and playing sports, pursuing them purely for my own joy and living life no longer in fear of peoples opinions and popularity.

<center>
genuine connections provide support and meaning in a world often obsessed with superficial gains. It is 2025 the world is a weird place and your health both mentally and phisically are very important so please speak up and discover who you are and forget about popularity contests.

This is hopefully where I'm heading. 

I've pretty much deleted all my social media accounts except blue sky. I'm not going to try be a streamer anymore. I'm going back to just streaming what I do while at my computer because I can.

Not going to try do things just to make a stream or try do anything. Going to just let things flow and if I fancy doing xyz then I'll do it.

If I can never have a day like yesterday ever again I might just be able to be happy.
