Many people feel success or failure is caused by external forces, and especially by other people. If I succeed, other people helped me, supported me–other people were “with” me. If I fail, other people let me down, didn’t believe in me, didn’t help me–other people were “against” me.
To some extent, that’s true. But also not totally within your control.
The only thing you can control? Yourself. So act as if success or failure is totally within your control: If you succeed, you caused it. If you fail, you caused it. “Reasons stop mattering.” – Steve Jobs
I am a naturally curious woman who enjoys researching a variety of topics, including history, sports, culture, and more. I also love cooking and caring for my two cheerful and inquisitive children. My love for coffee, reading, and writing allows me to indulge in moments of tranquility. As an ambivert, I appreciate good company but also seek refuge in solitude, finding solace away from the bustling crowd. Currently, I am immersed in the creative process of crafting a children's book, infusing it with playful imagination and heartfelt lessons.
