Staying on course

When you start on an alternative path, you will take many psychological punches. Eventually, you may wonder if you made the wrong decision and give up.

So you return to the default path but feel empty. You turn to stimulants, sugary foods, philosophy, therapy and meditation and work harder, but nothing soothes the dissatisfaction.

If you're brave, you will accept that cultural gravity will always be there, so you start to take its powerful punches. But you're not phased. You know to keep going and become a person that you admire.
