I love that you have beautiful relationships in your life. It's very valid for you to be tired. Just know that things will not be silent for too long. ❤️

This is real. Currently at home on a school break and none of the things I planned are working out. Am I trying very hard?? No, I think I can try harder. Do I want to? I'm getting tired. Guess I would just continue to try so at the end of the day, posterity would know I gave my best.

Thank youuuu,Hauwa. You just helped me clarify my thoughts. I'm really at that phase where I'm barely living,if that's what to call it sef. I have plans, but somehow, something is hindering me. And I'm just chilling till I can cross the bridge I'm at now. At the same time,my mates are multitasking and getting things done,or so it seems, and even effortlessly at that. While I'm not usually one to be bothered,I think they're starting to outgrow me. Yeah, I'm a teen and these things happen so fast.

What makes it worse is that I'm an introvert,if these guys leave me,I'll be alone for a long time lol. But what can I do.

One serious question, . Is it a bad thing to be mediocre and hide under the guise of contentment? I lose steam fast and often . I need to wash my head in the river of discipline , reliance on Allah, consistency and patience. If I do all of the above and I don’t become successful, who will I drag please?

Mediocrity is completely different from contentment. Contentment is appreciating where you are while striving to do better. You can be content and still push yourself to do better. May Allah make it easy for us.

Think I can relate. Keep being disciplined, you'll outdo yourself Bi'idniLah.

And you're definitely not a mediocre, a mediocre won't have these thoughts.
