The thing that seperate winners from losers is their grit determination and resilience.
There is a simple way to grow out of your comfort zone.
That goes through listing what you think are things that best define you.
Write down whatever characteristics you think make you yourself (example: introverted, overly talkative etc..)
Then proceed to make it a daily goal to do the opposite of any one of the points on your list.
By doing so, you make sure that you push yourself to behave in a way you're not used to while also learning more about yourself as you discover how you react when put in such situations.
Doing this repeatedly will help you develop higher confidence and reduce your risk aversion. You naturally and gradually become more open to things that would have scared you before.
That's what growth is.

Awareness -> Responsibility -> Clarity
In that order.
Most people overlook those aspects and then wonder why their lives are shit.
We tend to hide and avoid thinking about things that make us uncomfortable.
That leads to making them even more uncomfortable and sometimes developing insecurities and complexes.
A random example is 'I'm afraid of approaching strangers'.
Instead of simply putting it this way, people will start saying things like "I have social anxiety".
In reality, what they're doing is subconsciously relieve themselves from responsibility.
They treat it as a fact that they have no control over.
Reality is they're simply not aware that THEY are in control of what they do.
As opposed to someone who is fully aware of what they do wrong and take responsibility for it.
That's where Clarity comes.
Once you're aware of how much control you have over your fears, once you understand that YOU make them, you automatically and naturally become a lot more peaceful as you know exactly what you need to do to fix your issues.
Things are THAT SIMPLE.
Face your shit.
Break free from the downward spiral.
Embrace the upward spiral.

Things that made me a better person long term are the things that hurt me the most short term.
I changed because I saw people lose their soul doing what I was doing.
I changed because I saw my soul quitting on me because of what I was doing.
You need slaps in your fucking face so you can grasp how hard life is and how soft you're being.
Be the fucking rock you wish had your back.
Be that solid backup you'd wish to have.
Nothing can stop you from there.

Why people project and how to stop projecting
What is projecting?
It's attributing our own traits or behavior to other people in order to justify our own behavior and traits.
People project their insecurities and repressed emotions on other people because they have not dealt with them properly.
By projecting, the person feels like they are not alone in whatever they do. Problem is, they have themselves labeled such behavior as toxic, poor or bad but cannot acknowledge being guilty of it themselves.
This is a sign of deep rooted insecurities and that's exactly what we can call living in denial.
Because that's what it is.
Instead of admitting and taking responsibility, people tend to live in denial and refuse to admit their wrongdoings.
Instead, and given the fact that those are real things they cannot simply ignore, they project them on other people as a way of getting rid of the responsibility of their acts while justify to themselves that if others do it they have the right to do it.
A liar will often accuse people of lying, because they want to rationalize their behavior by forcing themselves to believe that they in fact do not have a problem and lying is a common thing.
That's the subconsciously implied result they're seeking.
In their conscious mind, they do not know or think that they're seeking validation.
To them, they are pointing out a behavior that is familiar to them.
A fake empathy that manifests through an attempt to make the person in front feel guilt and shame.
Now the real question:
How do we stop projecting on others?
Listen, I'll never say this enough.
You have to meditate and journal.
It's not "better if you do it".
You HAVE TO.
Journaling and meditation keep you in check.
It allows you times of self reflection, developing self-awareness and eventually lead you to personal growth.
When we become more self-aware, we start detaching our emotions from real life situations, we develop a more rational thinking.
One that is not clouded by insecurities.
If you want to get rid of your insecurities, you need to know them first.
Self reflect. Define. Improve.
Even if it's not a daily habit, make it a recurring thing in your calendar.
Every once in a while reconsider and revaluate yourself.
Here is a little tip, take the time to think back on the times you feel your emotional side taking over.
You were probably projecting.
That's why when we get angry or mad we tend to say things we regret, things we don't even believe to be 100% true.
That's because it's your insecurities talking.
Focus on your mental health and get to know yourself so you don't need to subconsciously try to validate your behavior through others.

Getting through shit = surviving.
Making shit happen = living life.
You can't be spending your whole life dealing with whatever life gives you.
You know what they say, if it gives you lemon make juice.
If it doesn't give you anything, still make juice.
You can't be waiting for things to happen in your life for you to take action.
You need to be taking action then dealing with obstacles on your way.
The path is not the obstacles.
The obstacles are details.
You define that fucking path.
And you do it once choice at a time, one second after the other.
It's Saturday take the weekend to think about what you're gonna be building.
Give meaning to your life, don't let life give meaning to your existence.
Always remember: you have total control.
Have a nice weekend.
