It's one of those days where it just comes across as kind of dumb for me to try to be anything. I suppose people who matter still support me, but it kind of stings that nobody else seem to care the slightest about my self-improvements. And I suppose it's not their fault. Marginally better garbage is still garbage.
Obviously I wrote this to ask for sympathy... but some advice on coping with mediocrity would be nice, or at least advice on how to tell mediocrity to get stuffed.
I think Nazi Superman was a thing.
I think you meant Übermann.

Anyways Cinderbroheimzillabudchum, i feel ya. I have wayyyyyyyy too many problems with feeling like i'm worse at everything than i think i should be. Here's the thing though: Feeling like you're mediocre is an excellent excuse to keep improving. If you're happy with things as they are, why bother changing them? At some point during your QUEST FOR IMPROVEMENT(tm), you'll either end up happy with things, or you'll get so damn good at what you do/are that people will
revere you, and given what i know about you, i'm pretty sure you'd be decently happy with that as well. :v
Both of those outcomes, however, have one prerequisite: KEEP GOING. The feelings of mediocrity is just natures weird backwards way of telling you that. Barring complete mental and physical incompatibilities, there's pretty much nothing you can't get hamazing at if you really set out for it. You have, for instance, improved your arting skills A LOT, and i am almost entirely certain that you haven't plateu'd yet. You've studied diligently, and you're improving quickly, far more so than a lazy shit like myself, and if you keep up that pace you'll be magic-tier in no time flat!
tl;dr if your brain says you're mediocre then you say "NOT FOR LONG" and then don't punch your brain because that would kill you
also it saddens me that my hands and arms are still painful after a one week vacation where i didn't use any PCs
:C
