When you make a mistake, you quickly forget all the wins and praise lauded on you over the years. Make one measly mistake and it’s all you can think about. And, unfortunately, you may carry it with you for a lifetime. This is normal, but not healthy.
Do you remember what career you dreamed of having when you were a kid? If you wanted to be a superhero or a wizard, you may have quickly realized that those jobs don’t actually exist.

The hours you work can vary when you have a part-time job, as there isn’t one standard that determines how many hours per day or week constitutes a part-time position. Whether your role is considered part time or full time can depend on how many hours per week you’re expected to work, and how an employer designates employment status.
When you think of anxiety, several scenarios may come to mind: the endless tossing and turning of a restless night, dread over potential future events, pandemic-related overwhelm, or full-blown panic attacks. Even if you’re not diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, you’ve likely experienced anxiety symptoms at some point in your life. In these situations, you might feel a queasiness in your stomach, racing heartbeat, excessive sweating, chest tightness, some tension in your jaw/neck/shoulders, or worrisome thoughts as you prepare for the worst possible scenario.

Saving money is something that everyone likes to do.

You might think to make drastic changes to your life to save money, but the best way to save is to make simple changes to everyday activities. You’re much more likely to stick to it that way. To go along with National Savings Day, here are a few tricks that you can look at to save hundreds of dollars more each month.
Do you ever worry about being exposed as a “fraud?” You’re not alone. It’s actually quite common for people to feel like imposters. In fact, approximately 70 percent of people admit to having experienced impostor syndrome[1] at some point in their lives — a Twitter poll found that 87 percent of people have experienced this.[2] Even successful and famous people like Tom Hanks, Howard Schultz, and Natalie Portman suffer from imposter syndrome.
A little stress is a good thing. It keeps us on our toes, challenges us to improve and can even lead to healthier brain function. A life without any stress at all would be pretty boring.
