You are not a loser, you are different.
You are not stupid when you don’t understand something, you just take more time.
You are not lazy, you are exhausted and you fail to notice it.
You are not less-ambitious. You are just focused on one step at a time.
You are not less-cool. You are just minding your business.
You are not less productive than others, your topic is just more complex.
You are not a loser.
