Hahahaha I always think about giving well-thought-out-responses, and then I hardly ever can. So I'll thank you for your words and then, begging your pardon, heartily disagree because a) I find your response entirely adequate and b) I'm not sure these ramblings deserve so much. Kind of just. Brain exhaust in mostly complete sentences for once.

I like your point about saying "you should stop trying to force yourself to be [X person]" to be more direct. In the case of "try your best", maybe "try enough" would be more energy efficient (if guilty of assuming that your best overshoots what is required which... kind of... no? ...Yeah no. Sigh.) I think maybe because these alternatives give less energy and/or are more negative. ...er, give less positive energy?

Even though they don't survive close inspection, I'm sort of fond of these phrases. They are so optimistic about human abilities (and limits!). They're nice to hear (unless it sounds like an impossible demand, as you show). What's another... "trust in the heart of the cards" "believe in yourself!" maybe? Very Pókemon. I hear it and I'm, like, yeeeaaaah! And the RL shuts you down, but meanwhile. Yeeeaaaah!

or. you. or you know. ...OTL. Thank you for the good wishes! You're still stuck in exams too, right? Good luck as well!
