Maybe you’re successful in ways that are much harder to measure.

“

VIRGO: Because you had a plan laid out for yourself and it’s not going according to plan — but nothing in life ever goes according to plan.

“

When we are young, and before we really have a sense of autonomy, our lives are governed by a process, a specific order.

“

It sucks when you feel like a disappointment. Like a failure. Like a fuckup. 

“

Calm down because you haven’t done anything wrong. Maybe you’ve spent years chasing after the wrong person. Or maybe you’ve spent years majoring in something you’re not interested in pursuing anymore. But that doesn’t mean you screwed up.

“

Forgive yourself for failing to reach your own personal expectations. Forgive yourself for taking longer to reach certain goals than you had hoped. Forgive yourself for feeling like you could have done more.

“

You feel fatigued all the time because you’re juggling with work, school, chores, family, relationships, self-care, and trying to make your artistic dream come true.

“

So, to you who feel like you’re a failure because you’re not this or that or whatever: slow down.
