How to accept oneself as not being excellent, feeling awkward, and not knowing how to proceed? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I bought a few online courses, but I fell behind in the process. I feel anxious, but more than anything else, I feel indifferent

I don't know how to move forward. I'm stuck in an awkward period of time. I don't have a job right now.

online courses, including English classes, design classes, and psychological counseling sessions

I haven't learned much.

There is also a class with a spiritualist, which is even more of a mystery

But it is also the course where I have invested the most money and energy

I feel like I'm wasting time, money and energy

I feel like I've wasted my time and money and energy

But I feel resentful.

Anyway, I'm stuck at this point, unable to move forward or backward.

because I am currently unemployed, I am pinning my hopes on the psychologist's plan, but I feel like I haven't put in much effort

I don't have a strong foundation at all.

Hello, question asker.

You've bought a few online courses, but you're finding it slow going and getting anxious. You're not making any changes, as if you don't care. In fact, you'd like to change your learning situation, but you don't have the motivation or drive to take action.

Right now, you're between jobs, and your finances might be a bit of a stressor.

This dilemma and stalemate state is overwhelming. You can try to calm down and figure out your next work plan. How long can your current financial situation allow you to remain unemployed? The psychology program requires not only study but also practice. It doesn't mean that you'll immediately start earning an income after completing your studies.

You can combine your future career plans to figure out what you can learn first in the near future, and you need to develop your learning plan and goals.

The content of the online courses you're currently taking is different. If you keep switching back and forth between different content, it'll make you think you're learning a lot, but you're not really learning anything. Learning without positive feedback will make you even less willing to learn, which will lead you into a vicious circle.

In the meantime, you can get ahead of the game by looking for a new job, learning what you want to learn, planning your schedule, and preparing for the psychological counselor program. With the pandemic adding to the uncertainty, being prepared will help you deal with it and open up more options.

Opportunities are for those who are prepared.

You can create a study plan for what you want to learn. Start with an hour of study time per day and gradually increase it. Some people can study multiple things at once, while others need to focus on one thing at a time. Make a study plan based on your own learning style. Best of luck!

Hello, I'm Qingxiang, and I'd like to discuss this with you.

From your description, it seems that you have had a number of ideas and visions over this period of time, hoping to improve your level and grow your abilities through learning. However, a situation has arisen that has made it challenging to keep up with the progress.

It is understandable that you have invested not only money but also a lot of energy in these courses. However, the current situation may make you feel that these actions are not as effective as you had hoped.

If I may, I would like to suggest that we do some calculations together.

Perhaps we could begin by taking stock of the time and money you have invested and working together to create a balance sheet.

1) From my analysis of the course content, I understand that you have mentioned several courses, including English, psychology, design, and the course of the Enlightenment Master. The English course seems to focus more on perseverance and long-term exercise, which could potentially offer certain benefits regardless of the length of time spent studying it. As for the psychological course from Yi Xinli, it appears that the mastery of theoretical knowledge may not be as crucial in psychological courses. The most important aspect seems to be recognizing the importance of growth through learning and embarking on a personal journey of growth and development. You have the option to study psychological courses, and it's likely that you have your own insights and perspectives on life, which could also be a valuable addition to your learning. The other two courses seem to be more technical in nature. The enhancement of technical skills is often closely related to one's learning enthusiasm. You have mentioned that you have invested more time and energy into one of these courses. I believe you may also gain valuable insights and understanding from these two courses.

2) Time analysis of the course. The courses have already been purchased, so the possibility of a refund is unfortunately very small.

I believe that online courses purchased have different viewing time limits, with some lasting three or five years and others offering an unlimited viewing period. When selecting these courses, I imagine you were drawn to certain features that appealed to your desire to improve yourself.

Perhaps the issue is that we haven't yet identified the optimal approach to realize this initial idea. It would be beneficial to explore a practical implementation plan.

Perhaps it would be helpful to re-plan all the courses, create a study plan that fits your own schedule and the duration of the courses, and move forward with a fresh perspective. You could start learning all the courses one hour at a time according to the plan.

— It's never too late to start.

I believe Confucius said something to the effect of, "If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening." I find this to be a profound observation.

I would like to take a moment to share my own experience with you. When I was at university, I studied a very unusual subject. I then worked away from home for a long time. Despite my best efforts and a strong work ethic, I only had small promotions in my job. Nearly 20 years passed in this way. Eventually, for various reasons, I decided to return to my hometown to develop my career and also to take care of my parents and family.

You could say that you're starting from scratch after returning. You're already in your forties, and you're also facing the deteriorating health of your parents. Your children's studies and character all require special attention from their parents, and you're also in the process of figuring out your own direction of growth.

In the initial period following my return, I found myself grappling with a sense of futility. My academic pursuits seemed to have lost their relevance, and the skills I had developed in my previous role seemed to have little bearing in the current landscape. I felt that I had perhaps not made the most of the past two decades, and was uncertain about my future prospects. Looking around, I observed that my peers and colleagues had already made significant strides in various fields, and some had even achieved remarkable progress.

I also experienced a challenging period of adjustment, which unfortunately led to some difficulties in my relationships with my spouse, children, and colleagues. I was spending a significant amount of time on my phone, engaging in various forms of entertainment. It wasn't until recently that I began to have some insights and gradually found a direction.

I began to explore psychology and gradually developed an appreciation for it. I aspire to contribute to this field and hope to be able to help more people in my lifetime.

It has been more than a year since you began your studies, and although you are just getting started, you are still at the beginning of your journey. I have been able to identify a direction, persevere, and take each step carefully. I am grateful to have been able to help one person after another through my efforts. Even though what I am doing now is still very small and rare, it has already made a valuable impact.

I'm not sure what your current situation is, but from the course you've signed up for, I can sense your expectations of yourself. It seems like you're hoping to become an even better and stronger version of yourself than before. It's great that you're seeking help through the Yixinli platform. It shows that you're ready to make a change and are driven to succeed.

I encourage you to pursue this path, for it is right before you. You have the power to shape your destiny.

My name is Qingxiang, and I'm sharing some thoughts and suggestions that I hope will be helpful.

I would like to express my love for the world and for you.

Hello, I can tell from your words that you're eager to grow and anxious about having no time to take online courses.

You might find it helpful to know a bit about my own experience and feelings on the matter.

First of all, I see some good things in your plan. People who want to grow are motivated by the desire to learn and grow from within, which is why they take so many online courses. But people's experience and time are limited. If you're trying to learn too much at once, it can make you feel like you're not good at it, and it can make you anxious.

I often get anxious about plans and time too. When I have a lot on my plate, someone comes along and reminds me that the most important thing is always just one thing. I try to simplify my life and focus on one or two of the most important things and studies at the moment, and instead I feel focused and like I'm improving. I suggest you also try asking yourself, what are the most important things for me right now?

How much time do I have to focus on it? If you plan within the scope of what you can control, you'll feel more accomplished.

Second, there's no objective link between being good at something and being able to take online courses or not being employed. Why put a label on yourself like that? In my opinion, the motivation to learn is a sign of being good at something. The key is to break down your motivation into action, combine it with your interests and specialties, and learn steadily, step by step.

Give it time and it'll flourish!

Finally, I'd like to offer a bit of advice and a reference after seeing your plan to hope for a psychologist when you are unemployed. Be aware that a psychological counselor requires a lengthy training process and a significant practical experience, as well as a substantial learning investment and financial resources.

If you're financially stable and have the time, it's fine to accept unemployment and gradually grow with the course. However, if you're just starting to learn and are eager to pass the exam to earn money in this field, it might lead to greater disappointment. You might as well find a job that you can handle, and the pressure of studying while working may be less.

Hello!

I can see you're frustrated, confused, and hurting. I'm here for you!

Don't give up now. Life is long and full of uncertainties.

Many successful people have had low points in their lives, but they kept going.

Deal with your anxiety, then do some analysis to see where you are stuck.

1. Examine your goals and decide what you really want.

You've signed up for several online courses at once: English, design, psychology, and even a course on spiritual awakening. It's normal to not be able to complete all these courses at once. Don't beat yourself up over it. Maybe you need to make some trade-offs and focus on the most important and most wanted things first.

If life is a ship, goals are lighthouses. We have limited time, energy, and money. Having too many lighthouses can make us lose our way.

Long-term and short-term goals can be set when setting life goals. The short-term goal is to lay the foundation for the long-term goal.

2. Don't be too self-centered and be confident in yourself.

Missing online classes makes you anxious and indifferent. This indifference is a kind of psychological defense. It's not that you're not capable; you simply don't care. Using the excuse that you don't want to do it prevents narcissistic damage caused by your lack of ability. This may be due to a lack of self-confidence.

A confident person knows their limits but doesn't give up.

To build self-confidence, start with your strengths, set goals, and encourage yourself when you make progress.

3. Start over.

When you're stuck, go back to the basics. Use this as a starting point and move on.

If you're unemployed but have spent a lot on online courses, it's better to find a job first. This will give you security and stop you feeling anxious. After thinking about it, you can decide whether to keep taking online courses.

If you work hard, you'll have a solid foundation for life. It's normal to have doubts and setbacks when you're young. Don't give up. There are endless possibilities for the future.

Hello, question asker. I answered your question, and I'm happy to have done so.

I can feel your anxiety, and I'm here to tell you that it's causing your obesity. Many obese people are caused by anxiety, and I'm here to tell you why. When actions cannot make up for the emptiness of anxiety and stress in the heart, many people will choose to fill it with food. At this time, eating is unconscious, and unknowingly the body becomes fatter and fatter. The fatter they become, the less they want to move, and the fatter they become, the more anxious they become, and the more they eat. This is a vicious circle.

Your current state is akin to anxiety-induced obesity. You've simply replaced eating non-stop with buying courses. Your heart believes that by buying courses, you're making progress and not stagnating. For now, this comforts your anxious heart, but your actions haven't kept up. You don't find learning as interesting or as motivating as you thought. Consequently, the more courses you accumulate, the more money you spend, but you haven't learned anything, which makes you even more anxious.

We must recognize our anxiety, admit our concerns about the future, and accept our current dissatisfaction. We must fully embrace these feelings and confront our true selves, freeing ourselves from the twisted state.

Next, release the suppressed emotions and let your body and mind relax.

Then, go quiet and ask yourself what you really want, what you most want to do deep down inside. Your heart will tell you the answer.

Ultimately, if you want to make a change, you have to work hard. Know what you want and you will have more motivation to do it.

Just wanting to stay still uses more energy on the body and mind. The more you think about it, the more annoyed you get, and the more annoyed you get, the less you want to do anything. So act, act, act. No matter what you do, you won't know if it's feasible until you try. If it is feasible, we've succeeded; if not, we've grown. No matter what happens, you won't lose. The class you're taking now, whether or not you pursue a related career in the future, you've learned something, and you've fulfilled yourself. For you, it's all a positive experience!

Come on, test it with practice and transform your anxiety!

Hello, Lin Yile. You want to be good, but you're confused.

Be yourself. Not everyone is self-disciplined. You're not wrong. You want to work hard, right?

You say that accepting yourself means not being outstanding. You feel that you are not outstanding, so you accept your not-so-outstanding self. But I can also see that you want to move forward. Many people don't do this. You have bought a lot of courses, and you have taken a small step, one step closer to being outstanding.

Online courses (English, design, Yi Xinli, planner) You can plan these courses to learn, just like at school. If you can study at home, then do it.

As adults, we need to work to get food, clothing, and shelter. If you need to, you can get a job. You can start with something you can handle. You can also plan in your spare time. It's hard to learn four courses at once. Learn one course with another course you want to learn. Start with that and don't do too much. Otherwise, you'll feel frustrated and give up.

Suggestion:

1♥ Make a plan for each month and each week.

2♥ Psychology + English. Study as much as you can.

3♥ Reward yourself with a gift after a week or a month.

4♥ Exercise for 10-30 minutes every day. Exercise is good for the brain, memory, and body.

Keep working hard and you'll meet a better version of yourself.

I can discern from your description a certain confusion. Allow me to offer you a warm embrace as a gesture of reassurance.

1.

You indicated that you enrolled in multiple online courses but felt that you did not have sufficient time to learn them thoroughly. It is likely that the numerous projects and limited time frame contributed to this perception. Additionally, you expressed concern about learning the fundamental concepts.

I lacked the requisite energy to study a multitude of subjects in depth. However, I implored myself to "study assiduously and strive to excel in each subject." This internal conflict was further exacerbated by the presence of two opposing forces within my mind.

2.

Which of the three courses did you find more accessible and conducive to learning? Which course did you prefer more for intrinsic reasons?

At the outset, I also enrolled in multiple courses, though not as many as you. I undertook two online courses. I discovered that the learning attitude differed, as did the concentration and seriousness with which I approached my studies. Consequently, I elected to pursue this course in greater depth with greater dedication.

3.

What were your motivations for enrolling in three courses? Was it the belief that acquiring one additional skill would provide a new avenue for advancement?

Or were there other motivations? When faced with an overwhelming number of tasks, it is only natural to experience feelings of anxiety. This can lead to a sense of inadequacy, a belief that one has not learned or studied sufficiently, and a perception that time is passing by rapidly.

4.

You indicate that a lack of employment is also a source of anxiety. Could a lack of financial income and employment have a significant impact on your well-being? If you engage in work while pursuing your studies, would this be considered an optimal balance between work and rest?

It is reasonable to inquire as to whether this will reduce stress. After all, if one devotes oneself fully to studying and does not achieve the desired results, it is not uncommon to experience feelings of anxiety. In contrast, if one has a job, at least one aspect is guaranteed, which makes it less likely to experience feelings of panic.

It is my sincere hope that all goes well for you, and that my sharing of these ideas will prove to be a source of inspiration and assistance.

Hello!

You bought several online courses from One Mind: English, design, psychology, and planning. You're taking too many courses at once, and they're not related, which is a waste of time and money.

A man wanted to make sure his crops wouldn't die of thirst during a dry season, so he dug a well in his field. He dug five, seven, and nine meters, but there was no water.

He said sadly, "There's no water here, so it's not good for crops." The other person ran to the other field, dug a well, and found water.

It's better to focus on one thing than try to do everything.

If you take too many courses, you won't be able to keep up. You'll feel anxious and indifferent.

You have the heart but not the strength.

From the current situation, you should have a choice. Plan which course can support your family, which is your hobby, and which can support your family while also being your hobby. Find the course that can make money and devote all your energy to it.

If you succeed in one course, you can choose whether or not to continue studying other courses.

This is my advice. I hope it helps.

I'm Chu Mingdeng. I love you.

Hello. I can see that you're in a tough spot and want to take action, but it seems like you're stuck in a rut and unable to move forward.

Taking lots of courses might be a way of avoiding the reality of losing your social status.

When an adult loses their social identity, they lose their foothold in society, so it's natural to feel anxious. Taking lots of courses is an attempt to appease this anxiety.

Of course, this is just a formality, and in reality you're not really committed to taking action. So this kind of course registration is a bit like shopaholism: you buy more and more to cover up your inner fears.

But it can't really address the underlying fear, and it only gives you a quick fix at the time of purchase. After a while, you fall back into a state of anxiety, so this is a kind of self-deception, avoiding to face the real problem.

The solution here is to figure out what you need.

I think the reason you're having trouble getting started is that you're not really sure what you want to do. And psychologically, it means you're not really sure what you need.

It's clear that in your previous job, you weren't working for yourself. You were subconsciously fulfilling the needs of others. Losing your job was also an unconscious decision on your part to stop living for other people. You couldn't find a way to do it for yourself.

I think you need to look back at what you did before, for whom (see the forces that influence you invisibly), and on the other hand, you need to identify your own needs, satisfy yourself, and do it for yourself. Only then will you slowly understand what you really want to do.

Studying psychology and the subconscious is also about you wanting to see yourself clearly.

Wishing you the best!

Good day, question asker.

How do you accept your own inadequacy? What are your standards for excellence?

The majority of individuals are more privileged than the average person, yet there is no universally accepted concept or standard of excellence. Would a high level of education, without the accompanying happiness, be considered an excellent outcome?

It is pertinent to question whether it is beneficial to possess a considerable number of assets if one is not in a state of optimal physical and mental health.

During my tenure in junior high school, I was not a particularly successful student. In my third year of junior high school, I failed an examination, and on my way from the experimental class to the ordinary class, I was burdened with desks and chairs. In that moment, I felt as though I had traversed half my life in a mere ten minutes.

Feelings of distress may manifest as a tendency to ruminate on perceived shortcomings, particularly in the context of academic settings. This can manifest as a preoccupation with perceived deficiencies, such as a lack of intellectual giftedness, which may lead to feelings of self-reproach and a desire to work excessively hard. However, this approach can impede learning by reducing cognitive flexibility and limiting the capacity to learn from one's mistakes.

Subsequently, I experienced a sense of relief. In gym class, I observed the boys in my class who did not excel in academics yet displayed a cheerful and affable demeanor while engaging in ball games. The girls in the regular class also exhibited a pleasant smile. Despite their lack of academic proficiency, they exuded a distinct joy. In comparison to the intense competition among the top students, I believe the regular class offers a commendable alternative.

In the event of encountering setbacks or failures, I am able to resolve and release them independently. Would it not be reasonable to conclude that this constitutes an outstanding performance?

In the current era of digital advancement, it is evident that a multitude of individuals have achieved success through various avenues, including television shows and interviews, or through the use of social media platforms such as TikTok. These individuals have demonstrated a combination of dedication, effort, and determination, ultimately leading to their triumphs. However, it is crucial to recognize that such examples should not be perceived as absolute or exclusive guides to success. The act of learning is an ongoing process that extends throughout one's lifetime. It encompasses not only the acquisition of financial resources but also the pursuit of personal fulfillment and well-being. While it is inspiring to observe the achievements of others, it is essential to maintain a balanced perspective and recognize that success can take many forms and pathways.

It is recommended that you secure gainful employment and pursue additional studies to enhance your professional capabilities. For instance, those employed in sales can benefit from acquiring knowledge in psychology to better understand customer behavior, while those in the tourism industry can develop their English language skills to facilitate communication with international visitors.

It is important to note that the acquisition of knowledge through the study of a course can only lead to an improvement in one's work in the immediate future. It is unlikely that such knowledge will be immediately transferable into a skill that can support one's family.

The reason for your reluctance to invest time and energy in learning a course is that the goal is not aligned with your immediate reality.

One should endeavor to make incremental progress on a daily basis, with the understanding that each day's efforts should be of a higher caliber than the previous one.

I urge you to reconsider.

Good evening. After reading your question, I discovered that this phenomenon is actually quite prevalent. It is referred to as "knowledge anxiety syndrome."

In the contemporary era, it is becoming increasingly common to inquire about the number of classes an individual has taken. Rather than asking if they have taken any classes, it is preferable to inquire about the specific number of classes they have completed.

It should be noted, however, that I have also undertaken a considerable number of courses, although the ones I have taken were more focused, namely one on psychology and the other on writing.

I purchased all of my psychology courses from Yi Psychology. My experience has been mixed, with both gains and losses. My guiding principle is to invest significant effort in my studies with Yi Psychology in the expectation of substantial returns. Ultimately, I have not incurred any personal financial costs. In my view, the investment in Yi Psychology has yielded excellent value.

The other is a writing course, which has now reached a point of profitability. It has already recouped its costs and is expected to continue generating profits in the future.

Furthermore, the act of writing has enhanced the quality of my psychological output. In summary, I have entered a virtuous cycle.

In addition, I have undertaken a number of certification examinations, including the first-level construction engineer examination, which was a highly sought-after qualification a few years ago. I also completed the examinations for a psychological counselor certificate and a teaching certificate, and I was successful in both.

Furthermore, I purchased the requisite literature for the Certified Public Accountant examination, but ultimately abandoned my preparation due to the prevailing circumstances.

In summary, I have experienced a multitude of challenges and difficulties, akin to a headless fly attempting to collide with numerous surfaces in an effort to create a new reality.

It is becoming evident that the certificates I have obtained and the courses I have undertaken are beginning to yield financial and personal benefits. My efforts have not been in vain.

I am currently employed as a tutor at a training camp, which also offers an online course. There is a high volume of enrollment, with several thousand individuals participating in a single session. Some students have requested an extension, and upon inquiry, it was discovered that they had also enrolled in other courses that conflicted with the scheduled time.

It is not uncommon for individuals who enroll in online courses to simultaneously pursue multiple programs. Some may complete one course before enrolling in the next, while others may enroll in several concurrently.

Indeed, there is also a condition known as the certification syndrome, wherein some individuals engage in relentless pursuit of certifications. I recently perused an article that detailed the case of a middle-aged man who had devised a plan to obtain 52 certificates by the age of 52, at which point he would cease his pursuit.

In comparison to these individuals, the certificates I have obtained are insignificant.

Indeed, both are forms of knowledge anxiety. In an era of information explosion, we are inundated with an overwhelming amount of information. Simultaneously, due to the pervasive anxiety that characterizes modern society, the costs associated with basic necessities such as housing, transportation, and event tickets are exorbitant, while wages remain stagnant. The future is shrouded in uncertainty, prompting individuals to seek avenues for knowledge acquisition and personal growth. In response to this need, the concept of knowledge payment emerged, offering a solution that aligns with the desire for learning and advancement.

It can be reasonably assumed that individuals who enroll in Mike's courses exhibit a range of emotional states, including confusion, anxiety, and a sense of urgency. Some may engage in this behavior as a means of appearing motivated, purchasing courses without ever submitting an assignment. I have encountered students who did not submit any assignments throughout the entirety of the boot camp.

As someone who has experienced these circumstances, I can offer some insight based on my personal experience.

For the time being, purchasing courses and feelings of anxiety have become a cyclical process.

In such cases, the purchase of courses may be perceived as a defensive mechanism, a means of coping with the immediate circumstances. For instance, it may be used as a way of managing anxiety about the future or fear of stepping outside one's comfort zone.

The act of purchasing a course can provide a sense of relief from the anxiety associated with reality. This allows the individual to reassure themselves that they have invested significant effort and that the future will undoubtedly improve. Conversely, if the individual does not perform well in the course, they may justify their lack of success by attributing it to the difficulty of the course or their own anxiety, thereby avoiding the necessity of engaging with the material.

In this manner, the act of purchasing classes and the experience of anxiety become intertwined. When an individual is experiencing elevated levels of anxiety, they may resort to the purchase of classes. However, subsequent to the acquisition of these classes, the anxiety may persist, thereby impeding the ability to engage in the intended study. This phenomenon represents the formation of a self-perpetuating cycle.

This situation is a trap that prevents progress.

The solution to this predicament is, in fact, quite straightforward. One must simply review the purchased courses and identify the one that elicits the greatest interest.

It may be advisable to postpone other classes if circumstances permit, and to discontinue those that cannot be postponed. While this may result in a certain degree of financial loss, it is sometimes necessary to implement significant changes or take decisive action, which can also serve to alleviate anxiety.

For example, if one wishes to take a course on psychology, it would be prudent to postpone the other courses for the time being. One should then devise a plan, such as a one-month timeline, and then break it down into smaller steps, such as the number of pages of reading and notes that must be completed on a daily basis. Once the plan is in place, it should be adhered to.

The remaining time can be spent engaging in leisure activities such as watching dramas or shopping.

This approach allows individuals to meet their learning needs without feeling compelled to act immediately, thereby providing a window of opportunity to accept and adapt to changes.

As anxiety levels decline, the cycle of anxiety surrounding the purchase of classes will gradually cease and then begin to dissipate.

I am frequently both a Buddhist and a depressive, an intermittently optimistic and driven psychological counselor, and I am grateful for the world.

Hello!

I am a heart exploration coach. Learning is the body's treasure.

From your description, I can feel your inner restlessness, pain, and a sense of being overwhelmed.

I won't go into detail about how your inability to accept your shortcomings is distressing. Here are three pieces of advice:

First, accept your situation.

This will make you feel a bit better and help you think about what to do next.

You say you're unemployed, have bought online courses, and are behind on processes. You're anxious, but don't care. You feel like you're living in a virtual time, spending a lot of money and energy, which makes you feel dissatisfied. You want to put your hopes in the psychologist's plan, but you haven't invested much, so you don't have confidence. You're anxious and irritable. Your state is understandable because everyone wants to become better, devote time and energy to what they want to do, and become confident and accept themselves. You have to accept your state, see that you're not good enough, and struggle with this. This will give you mental energy to think about other things. Otherwise, your mind will be surrounded by negative emotions.

You can only change your situation by accepting it. This may sound contradictory, but it's true because change requires acceptance.

Secondly, think about your own state.

Rational thinking helps you understand yourself and reality.

To do this, you need to do two things:

See your strengths.

You may think you have no merits, that you don't have a job, that you haven't learned much from the courses you bought, and that you have wasted time, energy, and money. But everyone has their own merits, and you are no exception. You are a good speaker. You have come here for help, which shows you are motivated. You have bought several online courses, which shows you really want to become better. So you see, you do have merits. When you see your own merits, you are likely to accept yourself.

Second, view yourself developmentally.

You may be able to see your own merits. If you still cannot accept yourself, you need to learn to view yourself with a developmental perspective because you still have time to improve.

To improve and achieve your goals, you need to take action. It's a process from "wanting" to "doing."

People don't grow up overnight. Be patient and see the power of time.

When you view your situation rationally, negative emotions can be resolved.

Focus on yourself and think about how you can feel better.

When you think about your situation, you may know what to do. At this point, you focus on yourself and do your best.

For example, think about what you need to do right now to improve your situation. If you need to find a new job, think about what kind of work you can do and send your resume. This will also improve your mood.

If you want to become a psychologist, you should study hard. It takes a long time to become a psychologist, so you need to be patient.

If you need to work and don't want to give up your plan to become a psychologist, you can prepare for both at the same time.

You can also improve yourself by accepting what you can't change and changing what you can. When you try to improve, you'll feel better. You can do this.

Taking action helps you accept yourself and become a better version of yourself. You'll also find your direction and become confident.

Louisa Grant The heart of a liar is like a broken mirror, it reflects everything but the truth.

I can totally relate to feeling stuck and anxious, especially with so much riding on these courses. It's tough when you're not seeing the progress you hoped for, and being unemployed just adds to the pressure. Maybe it's time to set small, manageable goals for each day or week to help regain some momentum.

It sounds like you're carrying a heavy load of frustration and selfdoubt. Sometimes, taking a step back and reassessing what you truly want from these courses can provide clarity. Perhaps focusing on one course at a time could make things feel less overwhelming.

Sean Miller Do not, for one repulse, give up the purpose that you resolved to effect.

The feeling of investing so much and getting little in return is incredibly disheartening. Have you considered reaching out to the instructors for guidance? They might offer insights or tips that can help you get more out of the classes.

Tanner Miller Learning is more fun than fun.

Feeling indifferent can be a defense mechanism against disappointment. If you're struggling to find motivation, maybe try connecting with others who are also learning. A support network can make a huge difference in keeping you engaged and motivated.

Jimmy Jackson Life is a balance of holding on and letting go.

It's understandable to feel like you've wasted resources, but remember, even small steps forward are still progress. You might not see immediate results, but the knowledge and skills you gain now will serve you in the long run.
