    I just want to say that paid employment doesn’t need to be what defines you. A lot of people never ‘find their passion’ or ‘follow their dream’. It’s very ok to just work for money. You don’t need to be a superstar at work. You can just enjoy the paycheck part of the job. Just do something to make money, that’s fine. You probably underestimate the value of just showing up regularly, even if you think the quality of your work is below what you want, literally just showing up on time and doing the job is putting you ahead of at least half the people who do those jobs.

      Thanks for your kind words! Very much appreciated. I do struggle with self esteem and valuing myself but this is more about feeling competent than confident. I don’t need to be the best in my field or anything, but it’d be nice to have contributed at least something worthwhile other than just the everyday grind.
