Things we do to be successful.

(Edited)

School life was insanely stressful at multiple levels. Even during my primary school days, the pressure to get good grades was already there.

You know, Parents feel a sense of pride when their kids do well in their academics. It's a feeling I enjoyed giving my parents every academic session. Aside from the intent to impress, the desire to be among the best was there. All of these were serving as a motivation for me to try as much as possible to always get good grades.

As I advanced further in academics, I got to see people who took this whole race to an entirely different level. I can easily give you a full list of a fraction of the people who became obsessed with reading. They took 'burn your night candle' to the next level and a great number of them pulled all-nighters...

...to get good grades.

Wow. Now that I'm thinking of this, it appears that the method that leads to success is something we all know;

  • To get good grades in school, you need to study like crazy.

  • To amass wealth, you need to put in the work.

Stuff like that is well known to us and doing this increases your chances of getting what you want. On the other hand, you have to make sure that you are not overdoing any of these because it can also brings about disaster.

While I have high regard for putting in the work, I don't envy anyone that pushes himself to the extent of experiencing burnout. I've been there before and I can tell you for a fact that preventing burnout is easier than getting over one.

In other words, allowing yourself to experience burnout is something we all need to think twice about. Putting too much pressure on yourself is not worth the negative ripple effect that comes with it.


These words are for you and me...

We are not in college and we are not competing to get good grades, but life is still happening to all of us. The hustle and bustle of life hit us so hard and we know the need to do the work to achieve success.

I didn't pull a lot of all-nighters back in Uni, but I see myself doing a lot of that now.

Am I overdoing it?

I hope not!

To be more specific, I try not to overdo things in my attempt to be successful. My health needs to be top-notch for me to enjoy wealth when I make it 🙂.

Thanks For Not Missing Any Full-stop Or Comma

Wise decision. Without health you can neither achieve wealth nor enjoy it if you achieve it.

With this thought you will go far, healthy and hopefully rich. 😁🤗

Always watch out for your yield curve and try to figure out what brings you most next. As soon as you notice that the next thing brings you less more than the previous one, stop and remain at that level.

I can totally relate to this. There are always expectations from people around us but that shouldn't push one to go overboard

Yeah. We just don't have to overdo things. Too much of everything is bad... even when you are pursuing a just cause. Hehe.

These are all good points and I wish many could read it. This is why I'd suggest Self Improvement community next time, which has been created for this type of topics. OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.

We have different communities on Hive and we're encouraging users to post in the right community based on the topic of the post.

Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide. I also put together a list of communities, which is not complete, there are much more communities on Hive, but it will help you get started.

Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.

Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
