There's no there there. Nothing could ever mean I deserve clean water because that would mean someone else /doesn't./ John helped me get to "there is no deserving, only doing what you can with what you have." ^319031802 ##### ^319031803 Goto: https://twitter.com/hankgreen/status/1522575807662608384 ###### ^319031803q I once confided in a therapist that I was worried that having better systems for dealing with my insecurities would make me a less effective person and she said something I really really really didn’t expect: “That is very common.” ^319031803 ##### ^319032202 highlight_tags:: [[favorite]] Goto: https://twitter.com/hankgreen/status/1522955770962137089 ###### ^319032202q I wanted to cultivate my insecurity to remain "effective," but why not just take out some of the insecurity and focus on what I actually want...to do work I'm good that solves problems. Not "I want to deserve what I have so I'll solve problems" but "I want to solve problems." ^319032202
