This title reminds me of the quote "life is not a race, it's a marathon". Everyone runs at their own pace but our goal must be to finish it. I love your videos so much Rebecca, thank you for this. Stay strong to anyone that is going through something. Much love - a stranger on the internet 💗

Oh my God I’ve been scrolling through the comments and I realized that you stopped someone from wanting to commit suicide!! I am seriously so proud of you Rebecca that you saved someone’s life and making them motivated to keep going! And to the person who commented, GO YOU! You are so brave and strong for getting through this, it’s a really incredible feeling when you realize how much you deserve to be alive, I am so so sooooo proud ❤️

I literally remember crying when seeing everyone my age graduating high school and going to uni/taking a gap year and doing stuff they love (im 18 but still in grade 11 bcs we had to immigrate to germany and they made me repeat classes so i fell behind). This made me feel like a literal loser. I had no motivation to do anything anymore i felt like i was just so late for everything. I used to complain to my parents saying how i will start uni/work so late. But then i really thought abt it and asked myself why am i so much in a rush? Like what do i think that i am missing? My life is not running away. Just bcs im in a very different place then most ppl my age doesnt mean that im doing something wrong. But basically this video is something i needed to remember this thank you♡♡

I`m 29 and in my 1st year of my bachlor degree, I`m studying Communication. I struggle with a lot, I`m going to have a big student loan dept, I struggle with missing out on life because of my thight buget, I don`t know what my personal goals are beyond just doing my schoolwork and i have no idea what kind of job i will do after i finish my degree. I feel like I`m under a lot of pressure, to look for a side gig (in what?) in my opinion that will only work for me if it is something i would want to do or try. Since I will have to work for the rest of my life after i gratuate, I don`t feel like working right now. School takes a lot of time, I`m not single, but I also don`t have a lot of friends or activities besides school. I am content where I`m going, i just don`t have any more end goals. What kind of job would i want/could i have? What am I good at? No idea.

Thanks for this vid Rebecaa!, this really help me, yesterday was our G11 recognition, suddenly i'am not in the honor student, i really feel bad because this is the school year that i didnt make it to the "honor student line". I was crying yesterday because some of my friends made it as a honor students, they are posting "i made it again" on facebook. I was really envious about them, lots of people questioning me "why you're not part of them anymore?" Lots of whys. I didn't go to school yesterday, i didn't watch our recognition, because when i'm watching it or thinking about it, its makes me feel bad and doubting myself why i let this happened just like i really try my very best, but it wasn't enough. I just deactivated all of my socials because it just makes me down. Thankyou so much for ur videos eonniee its makes me feel better. Iloveyouuuu

I really needed this. I realized that I went to grad school to give myself time to figure out what I wanted to do with my life. A few years pass and now I have a Master's and still no clue what I want. I felt extra behind because now I'm older and in the same position I was years ago. Everyone my age is getting married, already has a career and I'm still here just graduating.

Gosh. Right now i’m doing nothing else other than my thesis for my master. I pursued master degree right after i graduate the bachelor. On 2020, i have a good career,on my way to get married, have many friends, pay my rent with my own money. But now, 2022, my thesis abandoned. I have no job, no income. I broke up with my bf and left married, no friends and being a burden at my parents house. It’s hard. To see my friends got married and start their new chapter of life. It’s hard to see your friends already had a job and can buy anything they want. I literally have nothing to do rn. It frustating me. I felt so much left behind. Life after graduate is hard. It’s your quarter life crisis. It’s you and your own now.

I feel bad because I was only able to "graduate" high school last year at 19-20 after people had threatened to kidnap me and it was not safe for me to go to school, or out. And now when I graduate uni I'll be 24, which is so strange to me because I really could have/was supposed to graduate uni at 20 last year. Then i always do my best to remind myself that it was not fault, because i probably would be dead had i gone to school or anywhere out.

[@oliviaj9037]

I jumped into a minimum wage job from uni which has been incredibly physically and mentally demanding, I even developed insomnia from stress about the job. Guys - do NOT rush. I felt like I was failing because I wasn’t being productive. Success = Productivity is a myth. Your life’s path is shrouded in mist, your path is not theirs it is unlike anyone else’s. If you knew every step of your life it would loose all meaning and you’d feel strung along, not free. Take your time, no one is getting shed, no one is doing it better. It doesn’t matter how much money, views, friends, jobs someone else has, their life is not yours. You’d probably not even be happy in their shoes. Just pay attention to what you want and take a step every day. You are going to be ok. Your ideas of Success and failure are not universal truths, reshape your joy and success.

I am homeschooling, so living school felt kind of like graduating... I don't go to school so I don't have anyone that I need to be friends with, so socializing is my responsibility. I already passed all my subjects so since almost two months I have nothing to create my routine around... To be honest I just scroll TikTok and rollerblade, sometimes meet up with my best friend or text with her. For the past month I felt overwhelmed by this void of having nothing to do and being unproductive. So I forced myself to apply for near by jobs and tomorrow I will start being a waitress! I am 17 and this is my third job, but I am pretty clumsy... I feel like I will drop something and mess up the order, but it's a small pizzeria so I hope they won't hire me... lol

I really need this. I have completed all of my courses last year and had just finished my internship early this year. Yet, I had just received my completion letter on 18th of May this year. For the past few months, I had been feeling lost, feeling inadequate, worrying over if I could find a job or what not, and most of the days, I’d squander my time away, lazying around literally doing nothing. Retrospectively, it has not been for nothing, along with the anxiousness for the future, my relationship with my family members had deepened, given that for the past 2 years of the pandemic, I was unable to come home. Now I’m home, I’m truly grateful for it. I’d always second guess myself, to the point where I’ll procrastinate on doing things. Well, perhaps, this is a sign for me… No more mindlessly idling around. It’s the time for me to keep on doing the things that I’m supposed to be doing. I can do this. Thank you, Rebecca!
