Right now, I’m sitting in a Starbucks with a cup of coffee, thinking deeply about my life — about what I’ve achieved, what I want, and how much more I’m capable of doing.

I know I’m doing well.
I believe in myself.
And I truly believe I can do anything I set my mind to.

But after moving to Korea for higher education — taking full responsibility for my life, my bills, my growth, my future — I’ve realized something:

Doing everything alone is not easy.
It’s powerful, but difficult.
Beautiful, but heavy.

Still, I know one truth with 100% certainty:

With the right strategies, right principles, patience, and consistency… every dream becomes possible.
Success is just the compound effect of tiny actions done daily.

🔍 Finding Your Weaknesses Is a Superpower

One question I constantly ask myself is:

“Why can’t I do this yet?”

Not in a negative way but with curiosity.
Maybe I’m the obstacle.
Maybe I need to improve.

Recently, I’ve been struggling.
Mentally, emotionally, physically and it’s everything felt overwhelming.

So I took a picture of myself and asked ChatGPT to break down what’s holding me back.
Here’s what I learned — and these insights changed everything for me:
