Becoming More Thoughtful and Rational: On becoming normal

In a society that often glorifies extraordinary achievements and grand ambitions, I, Cmmndrbawang, a Twitch streamer and college professor, have come to realize the beauty and significance of embracing normalcy. Though I once aspired to build an international company, my perspective has shifted. Now, I find fulfillment and purpose in focusing on improving and doing my best in the things I love, such as content creation and teaching. This blog delves into my personal journey, highlighting why it's okay to let go of lofty goals and find contentment in embracing the ordinary.

Embracing Authenticity:

As a Twitch streamer and college professor, I have learned the importance of being true to myself. Society often pressures us to conform to expectations, but I've found that authenticity is the key to personal fulfillment. Embracing my normalcy means embracing my passions and interests, even if they align with societal norms. I take pride in my content creation and teaching, finding joy in sharing my knowledge and experiences while being unapologetically myself.

Finding Contentment:

In the pursuit of building an international company, I realized that my happiness shouldn't solely rely on external achievements. Instead, I've shifted my focus towards finding contentment in the simple joys of life. By embracing a normal life, I've learned to appreciate the everyday experiences and relationships that bring me happiness. Content creation allows me to share my creativity and connect with an audience, while teaching provides me with the opportunity to make a positive impact on my students' lives. These endeavors bring me immense fulfillment, and I no longer feel the need to constantly strive for grand ambitions.

Prioritizing Personal Growth:

By embracing normalcy, I have learned the importance of prioritizing personal growth and improvement. Rather than fixating on building an international company, I now channel my energy into honing my skills as a content creator and educator. I strive to be the best version of myself in these areas, continuously learning and adapting to provide valuable content and guidance. Normalcy has allowed me to focus on my own journey of self-improvement, appreciating the progress I make along the way.

Fostering Meaningful Connections:

Embracing normalcy has also helped me foster meaningful connections with others. By focusing on my passions, I have found a community of like-minded individuals who share similar interests and goals. Through Twitch streaming and teaching, I've built relationships based on common experiences, values, and aspirations. These connections have enriched my life, reminding me that it is through genuine human interaction that we truly thrive.

Tips from Cmmndrbawang to Embrace Normalcy:

  • Stay True to Yourself: Embrace your interests and passions, even if they align with societal norms. Being authentic allows you to find joy and fulfillment in the things that genuinely resonate with you.

  • Let Go of Unrealistic Expectations: Release the pressure to constantly achieve extraordinary feats. Instead, focus on finding contentment and satisfaction in the everyday experiences and personal growth that come with embracing normalcy.

  • Prioritize Personal Fulfillment: Identify the activities that bring you genuine happiness and a sense of purpose. Don't chase after external achievements or societal expectations if they don't align with your true desires. Your personal fulfillment matters the most.

  • Embrace Your Unique Journey: Accept yourself for who you are and recognize that being "normal" doesn't mean being average or mediocre. Celebrate your individuality and the beauty of your own journey.

  • Foster Personal Growth: Shift your focus from grand ambitions to personal growth and improvement. Strive to be the best version of yourself in the things you love, and celebrate the progress you make along the way.

In my personal journey as Cmmndrbawang, a Twitch streamer and college professor, I have discovered the profound value of embracing normalcy. Letting go of grand ambitions and focusing on improving and doing my best in content creation and teaching has brought me contentment and a sense of purpose. By being authentic, prioritizing personal growth, and fostering meaningful connections, I have found fulfillment in the ordinary aspects of life. So, I encourage you to embrace your normalcy and find joy in the pursuits that resonate with your true self. Remember, it's okay to let go of society's expectations and focus on what brings you genuine happiness and fulfillment.

Thank you for writing this. I feel resonance with your life pointers here. Who would have thought being authentic not for anybody but for yourself is so freeing, right? All those "lofty" goals we used to dream of because of what society especially our culture has programmed us to think, now seems irrelevant and ridiculous. This is my opinion though. I can only speak from my experience as well. Anyways, congratulations on your personal milestones. Know that you spark some inspiration in me so thank you.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I agree, you know it is not to reach for the moon sometimes but that should include gauging one's own capacity and reach so one can still be grounded while reaching heights

Know that you spark some inspiration in me so thank you.

This means so much to me! Thank you so big!

"Having contentment with what we have in our life" is one of the great virtue most of us lacking in our current era. We are always running after "more and more". At the end, we are "unsatisfied fellow" in our achievements!

Good advice for us :)
