Embrace ambiguity and unsatisfactoriness as part of life.
Apply the mindset from Indian Zen teachings:

Everyone you meet and everything that happens is meant to be. The past is the past; focus on the present and future.

Develop trust in your own abilities and choices.
Live according to your personal values, not others’ expectations.
Recognize that happiness does not require fame or perfection.
