Sometimes this is all there is to it

Every once in a while the world lets you know something isn’t for you. More often than not it’s not from lack of trying either. Sometimes you just have to be better. Sometimes that’s all there is to it.

When you have this realization it can feel like a punch in the face. You know that there’s a better way of going about things, but you lack the skill or knowledge of that at this moment in time.

That’s ok. Either this thing isn’t for you, and you should think about moving on, or it’s a chance to get better. If this is a recurring issue, give yourself a time limit to at least make some progress, and reassess at that chosen time.

Otherwise, sometimes things have a way of telling you they aren’t for you. That’s ok too. Take it on the chin, and move on.
