Who doesn’t fucking hate the pressure of people having expectations of you?
Replace all instances of “should” with “could” to make your life easier. Maybe “easier” isn’t the right word, but there’s nothing nice about external pressure, especially expectations that others have of you. The people closest to you; you family and friends, get them to replace the word “should” with “could” if they want you to listen! IE: Saying you “could” do this, or you “could” do that sounds a hell of a lot more positive and encouraging than you “should” do this, or you “should” do that, which to us sounds like pressure and even a little condescending.
