-Don't ignore the problems you face. Rather, come to terms with them.
-Realize your insignificance amidst the rest of the universe – It is the epitome of narcissism to think that our individual actions have any consequence in a universe where the entire Milky Way Galaxy is a tiny spec on the map. Likewise, most if not everything, people take issue with is meaningless in the grand scheme of things.
-Be confident. If you are confident in yourself then you won’t worry about meaningless criticism from others. How do you gain confidence? Know that you are born unique and have your own special gifts that make you who you are. If that doesn’t work, then fake it till you make it. Dress in business clothes; pretend to have a million bucks. You will feel confident, and thus, you will act confident. And then you will feel more confident. It’s a cycle. A lot of confidence comes from experience, and when you don’t have any, you can at least fake it the first time around.
-Be grateful. Your existence itself is due to chance. You are the result of billion years of evolution and a seemingly infinite number of coincidences. Life itself is a gift that you have been given. Stop giving a fuck about shit that doesn't matter.
-Don’t have expectations – You shouldn’t give a fuck about outcomes. Do what you love. If you set the bar too low, you will be content with mediocrity. If you set the bar too high, motivation decreases if the goal seems too unrealistic. Do what you love and do it to the best of your ability. And if you enjoy what you do, you will continue to do it regardless of success or failure. Improvement is inevitable as you gradually learn from experience and correct your mistakes.
-Accept that you have no control over many things. You don’t control your death or the fact not everyone loves you. You must accept this rather than try and change something that you cannot. With this understanding comes the freedom of acting without being concerned with things outside of your control.
-Start acting instead of thinking. Just do it. Not giving a fuck is like a switch. Turn it on. That’s all it really takes. It’s a habit. Try to improve on it everyday.
