I'm writing this as I still have Hay Fever or a cold, I don't know which I got during my Florida trip. However, that's not what I'm going to dwell on. I have been on a long journey of growth with my ADHD, OCD plus chronic illness and I've realized that I put too much faith in people in society. I know that's bold but it's true and overstated. However, I have more what you would say internet friends/acquaintances and you know the more I spend on these social media apps the more I realize that I am like the rest of these people probably thinking I'm a better person than I am and that's ok its human nature/flaws. That being said, instead of the typical resolutions which btw everyone gives up anyway as I mentioned in the last podcast, how bout we just try to do small baby steps (I've been listening to a bunch of podcasts about the societal pressures the toxic diet culture and just race horse mentality) I got to tell you this week I was playing catch up more with trying to achieve everything ( another bold statement) but in doing so with the put in the work mentality I have been having way more anxiety and overthinking of is this too much or not enough... I think as human beings with the constant fight or flight. Also, this week on Tiktok LIVE I was getting alphabet soup with my speaking cause I have been so tired but wanting to grow went back to that overtop mentality. This just shows why I am taking a break this weekend ( I haven't posted a reel/TikTok since Thursday just as I said I would small victory) Obviously your mental health or exhaustion from this is going to be cured or "fixed" but that's ok nothing happens as much in an instant as we think. Honestly, when I spoke with Laura a few weeks ago I have been really trying to get my mind in that mantra: "Nothing happens in an instant" take time " Give yourself till you're 35" Your generation ( GENZ) has had everything happen in an instant you just think it's normal, it's not. I guess all I want for the next year is to be gentler on myself ( which is constant for everyone). So to conclude this long overshared information, self-deprecating, quarter-life crisis of this GenZ-Gab blog. My outlook on 2023 as cliche as it is, is to be kinder and gentler with myself ( whatever that may be); To be ok with a sloth moving progress on things ( aka stop comparing), and finally as usual the statement my dear cuban host mom always said to me poquito a poquito ( cause I still keep my Spanish somewhat fresh.... just got to really work on my french with my dual citizenship to Luxembourg coming up...)...Next, I will be back on Monday the 8th of January 2023 for full episodes of GenZ-Gab you can stream them on all platforms where I pretty much say a lot of the same here. Furthermore, hope you had a Happy Healthy Holiday season... CHEERS to 2023 hope it's a good one.
Also please enjoy a parallel of tv vs reality
