Reason For Stresslaxation: Worrying About Others

Reason For Stresslaxation: Worrying About Others

Most of us have something we’re passionate about—whether that’s our work or even a hobby. But the reason you’re motivated to do these things is important.

Some people pursue their passion because they want to—whether it’s to improve themselves or learn a new skill. But others may only pursue their passion because they want recognition from other people.

People with certain personality types may be more prone to obsessing over their passion.

Others may simply follow a certain pursuit to get praise from their colleagues or even to prove their worth to friends or family.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
