The thing with me is like, I realize that, but if you're people who are acting nonchalant about, especially about things that they are actually passionate about, it's just insecurity, like manifesting in that way where it's like, I need to appear like I'm not really trying, but I am trying or whatever.

Like I'm not insecure about things.

those things.

So I'm like, don't worry, I got them.

But I'm not insecure about those things.

So I'm willing to try really hard at them and fail and fall on my face or whatever.

And it kind of excites me too, that there's a lot of people that aren't willing to do that.

Cause it's like, then it feels like I have a leg up on them because I'm willing to hit the ground super hard.

Because when I hit the ground, like, then I know like you slammed a door in my face.
