Wanna know the easiest way to signal your own inferiority to your brain? Act as if something is a big deal by stressing during preparation.
My day-before-the-test routine is always the same— wake up, casually, do everything unrelated to the thing I’m facing (never thinking about it the whole time) and then, the following day, showing up intently, focused.
Whether it was a test for school, a new job that I’d never done, or some exciting project that I over-promised on, this routine remains a constant.
Most of us don’t take new opportunities because we’re afraid of being unprepared…. we’re AFRAID of losing something we don’t even have? Unless you’re in some life or death field, that’s completely mad.
We’re always unprepared, the key is to be okay with figuring it out as you go.
Don’t stop yourself from doing something because you “need more time to get ready to be ready.”
That’s not real.
You don’t need permission to stop being an intern, just decision.
