The Better me

  Pourquoi choisissons-nous la médiocrité plutôt que l'excellence ? Pourquoi est-il plus facile de se contenter de moins ? Pourquoi nous cachons-nous derrière un complexe d'infériorité au lieu d'affronter nos peurs ? Pourquoi blâmer le monde pour nos malheurs alors que nous pouvons prendre la responsabilité de notre propre évolution ? Pourquoi trouver du temps pour les excuses alors que nous pourrions utiliser ce temps pour devenir meilleurs ? Pourquoi douter de notre capacité à réfléchir alors que nous sommes capables de voir au-delà des limites ? Pourquoi laisser la peur envahir nos esprits ? Pourquoi remettre à demain ce que nous pouvons commencer aujourd'hui ? Pourquoi choisir d'être en retard alors que le temps est la seule chose que nous ne pouvons jamais récupérer ? Pourquoi rester enfermés dans notre zone de confort alors que tout ce que nous recherchons se trouve au-delà ? Pourquoi ne pas regarder au-delà du ciel, sachant qu'il n'est qu...

  Why do we choose mediocrity over excellence? Why is it easier to settle for less? Why do we hide behind an inferiority complex instead of confronting our fears? Why blame the world for our misfortunes when we can take responsibility for our own growth? Why create time for excuses when we could use that time to become better? Why doubt our ability to think when we are capable of thinking beyond limits? Why allow fear to occupy our minds? Why procrastinate when all we need to do is start? Why choose to be late when time is the one thing we can never get back? Why remain trapped in our comfort zones when everything we seek lies beyond them? Why can't we see beyond the skies, knowing they are only another layer waiting to be explored? Why be afraid of failure when we haven't even begun? Why chase perfection when our flaws are what make us beautifully human? Why surround ourselves with negative energy when we have the courage to walk away? Why stay in sadness when you can find joy...

  While I was still in high school, I developed a strong interest in Computer Science Engineering. Now, let me be honest—I had absolutely no idea what it actually involved. 😂 All I knew was that something about technology fascinated me, and I wanted to learn more. After my final exams, I began searching for what I considered the "perfect place" to continue my studies. In my country, not every institution offering technology-related programs is accredited, so I wanted to make sure I was making the right choice. I visited several schools, hoping one of them would immediately feel right. None did. Still determined to understand this world of technology, I enrolled in a bootcamp. The funny part? I didn't even own a computer. 😂 Despite that small inconvenience, I genuinely enjoyed my time there. I met amazing people, some of whom remain good friends today. The environment was inspiring, and for the first time, I felt like I was getting closer to something I truly loved. Just...

 I Thought Twenty Would Change Everything Turning twenty felt like a grand achievement. For months, I counted down to it with excitement. Every conversation I had about life in your twenties painted the same picture: freedom, growth, adventure, and endless possibilities. It sounded like a magical wonderland where everyone suddenly had their lives together. Naturally, I wanted it. I imagined myself stepping confidently into my "girl boss" era, ready to conquer the world one ambitious goal at a time. And, of course, there was my birthday. I mean, it was my day. As the months became weeks and the weeks became days, I could not help but smile whenever I thought about it. When the day finally arrived, it was everything I had hoped for and more. But that story is for another day. When Imagination Met Reality Twenty is often described as the age of emerging adulthood. For some, it is the beginning of university. For others, it is the start of a career, marriage, or comple...

  Excusitis: The Failure Disease "I can't do this; I think I'm sick." "That guy is so intelligent; no one except him can pass the course." "He's too young; he can't be in the university." "She's so lucky. Many people came before her and couldn't finalize a contract." These are statements we often use or hear. But have we ever stopped to think about what they really imply? While exploring the world of books, I came across The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz. In Chapter 2, the author introduces a word I had never heard before: Excusitis . He describes it as the failure disease and illustrates it through various examples and real-life experiences. So, what is Excusitis? Excusitis is a psychological term used to describe the habit of constantly making excuses. Every time we complain that we cannot perform because of our health, blame our failures on bad luck, convince ourselves that we are not intelligent ...
