Deep dives
The Burden of High Expectations
Driven individuals often experience a burden from their high expectations of themselves, leading to a relentless internal pressure. While being hard on oneself can foster determination, it is essential to balance this with self-celebration for achievements, however small. Many people tend to internalize negative feedback from childhood while conveniently overlooking positive affirmations, which can skew their self-esteem. Ultimately, self-esteem is a personal achievement, cultivated through overcoming challenges rather than through external validation.
