How I Stopped Chasing Approval at Work

Ever found yourself working late just to impress, not because you actually care? That was me, glued to my laptop, thinking every win would finally make me feel enough. Here’s what’s helped me chill out and get real: • I ask myself what I actually want—not just what looks impressive. • I try to outdo yesterday’s version of me, not everyone else. • I spend time with people who love me for me, not my resume. • I let myself take breaks, even when my to-do list is yelling. Life feels so much lighter when I stop performing and just connect. Anyone else ever get stuck in that achiever mindset?
