Have you met your “other” self? 1. Lately, she has come alive in 3D and is stronger than ever.
She is insecure. When she sees others succeed, she begins to compare me to them.
2. What’s my purpose in life? What am I good at? Will anyone want to hire me?
She is afraid, so I lose my confidence and anxiety creeps in. I want to stay in bed all day, watch a movie, and forget I exist. I don’t want to be acknowledged, so I walk around campus with my head down, looking at the pavement.
3. She makes me feel that if I give, I lose. She questions everyone’s intentions. She doesn’t want to share. Favors make her feel uncomfortable. She doesn’t deserve them.
She makes me feel that everyone is against me, but how could that be? I realized I sounded paranoid(偏执的). 4. So, I followed advice from the CEO of General Electric, Jeff Immelt. He says he sometimes goes to bed feeling like a failure, but he has a private practice. Every morning in front of the bathroom mirror, he gracefully says to himself, “Hello handsome,” and is reborn.
The day after I learned about this practice, I started to remind myself to say no to my “other” self. I also found my “happy place” on campus: the lawn between Kresge Auditorium and the Student Center. 5. I am at MIT, my dream school. I look up at the dome, carrying a cup of coffee in the morning, ready for class. Hello handsome!
A. She is selfish.
B. She is ashamed.
C. If so, what is she like?
D. I begin to question myself.
E. I wanted this struggle to end.
F. It’s a place that reminds me where I really am.
G. No one likes to admit they have one, but I am starting to become well-acquainted with mine.
