(1 year later) An Update On My Quarter-life Crisis

It’s officially been a year since I uploaded my first YouTube video proclaiming to the whole world that I was going through a quarter-life crisis. That I’ve found myself stuck in my life, not knowing where to lead it.

I write this now, not because I want everyone to care about what I’m doing, but because I know there are others out there who are going through something similar. For one, what helped me a lot was hearing from others that I’m not alone in this. And two, the best thing to get us out of being stuck is to hold ourselves accountable to what we say.

So what’s happened since that last video? Well, I’ll just say that my future is even more unpredictable (cause none of us are fortune-tellers anyway) and it’s uncomfortable and risky, maybe even a bit stupid. But what keeps me going is the acceptance of this fact, as well as the reframing of the inevitable negative thoughts that we feel towards excitement instead.
