For me it was these.

"A focused fool can accomplish more than a distracted genius"

"Until the lion learns to write, every story will glorify the hunter"

These two quotes really helped get my @** in gear.

“Action over anxiety.”

Another Lemmy user (@[email protected]) posted this, learned it from his mum. I’ve been really trying to take this to heart. Instead of spinning in circles, I try to do something about it. If I can’t, then there isn’t anything I can do to change it at that point and just need to wait. It gives some relief to me at least.
