taking your goals seriously = being clear, focused, strategic and realistic, yet also making time for fun, play, rest, and pleasure. pushing yourself to grow and remaining disciplined in a way that builds self worth.
being too serious = working harder than you actually need to, entering into stress and worry, and ignoring everything except your narrow goal. believing that fun is childish and means you’re not committed to your goals. pushing too hard because you don’t trust yourself. eroding self worth by being too harsh.
