has anyone ever felt so overwhelmed by your own capabilities?
i am a material scientist, a badminton freak, a rapper, a poet, a writer and some other interesting things (like being gandhi)
i never imagined to be any of those except for a badminton player which was my vision for myself growing up
but life had other plans along the way and shaped my skillset as it is today
my hip-hop is old school, my writing is enticing, my poems are archaic, my badminton game is solid as fuck
but my presence as a scientist is not satisfying, i keep pushing myself to yield better results and burn out myself
i want to leave the lab, run away and do something that will take my mind off of this particular material
if i start something i won't stop until i finish it, even though it's a hobby, i completely indulge myself in what i'm doing and cannot stop (until i burn out myself again)
how do i stop it? how do i establish balance? i need some quality advice (nothing philosophical) because i see this as a serious problem 5 replies
