The internet is a black hole of advice that often sounds reasonable but in practice is often irrelevant or misguided.

Nobody can tell you what will work for you.

There’s nobody who can tell you how you feel. Or what’s happening inside your mind and body.

Some answers are not searchable through Google.

You can dissect a success or failure in a multitude of ways to find possible reasons behind them, but ultimately you don’t know what led to each success or failure.

When it comes to anything involving human beings, “proven by science” is only a starting point, and a weak one at that.

Every proven rule has exceptions.

If you’re searching for definitive answers, this may land as a hard truth.

This flies in the face of everything you were led to believe.

Success in school is all about giving the “right” answer. Those of us who did well in school likely internalized the belief that getting ahead depends on getting “it” right.

Whatever “it” is.

You were fed a lie.

The only certainty in this world is that nothing is certain.

Everyone is just throwing spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks.

This can be extremely liberating or extremely terrifying. Sometimes a little of both at once.

The search for answers and directions begins and ends within.
