Here is a thought. I've been contemplating about this topic this past days and they seem to be an annoyance and less of a help than whatnot. Of late, I've been thinking people seem to have all their lives together, a good career and good relationships. I sometimes feel I don't have what they have and I need to have what they have. I went into the cycle of comparing my life to other people I know and it's the most destructive and demeaning way to treat the self.
Somehow I forgot I have many experiences under my belt. I forgot I worked hard to get my Bachelors and that I worked very hard to keep my many jobs that were not too easy to obtain and kept at times. These experiences didn't give me the paychecks that doctors get but they taught me lessons that I would never have get if I didn't have them in the beginning. They gave me the tough love I needed, and they taught me how to be the person who needs to succeed in life at a professional and personal level.
One thing that put my mind at ease is the thought of how people don't think about me as much as I believe they do. And this did the trick. It unleashed me from this mental bondage and this torture that I have put on myself and with just this new way of thinking, magic happens and I became a new confident person.
