Right now I'm self-soothing by looking at expensive leather purses on Etsy; I think that's what bothers me most--I feel very small-minded, like there is a bigger picture in front of me that I can't see. And logically I know that I'm doing well for myself, especially in comparison to my age group in general and the people who post on the r/personalfinance sub on Reddit, but part of me is saying, "Trying hard is not good enough!" (Partly because that is the title of the book we're using at work about evaluation methods, and it has really sunk in for me.) And a shitty thing (not the, just a) is that I've thought for a long time that I would like to study library/archival sciences, but is that something sustainable that I'm actually passionate about, or is it just some weird mental fixation I've gotten, like many other weird mental fixations?
