12/09/2024---- A fear i had to overcome

I recently got over my fear of failure or missed out potential. For a while I was really hard on myself for getting a poor grade or not getting a high enough SAT score and it really sucked because I realized that I was stressed ALL the time. So recently I've been a lot easier on myself and understanding that I wont get a perfect score on everything, and more so that not being stressed 24/7 is worth not getting the absolute best on everything. Obviously I'm still going to put in a lot of effort and get good grades, but I'm not gonna stress over it all the time, atleast not till next semester.

I don't really think 2 of my group members will do their share even though we gave them the easiest jobs. Im fully prepared to do their jobs if I have to.
