Its a cycle of disappointment.

Instead of celebrating what I accomplished, I focus on all those things I failed to.

It sucks the enjoyment out of the game and makes playing it feel more like a chore.

The Starlight Stalls area in Final Fantasy 14.

This incomplete do-to list feels more and more like a Gunblade of Damocles as the year goes on.

FFXIV outdid itself with this year’s Starlight Celebration and the addition of the Starlight Stalls.

Its time for me to break that cycle.

Instead of dwelling on things I didnt do, Im going to remind myself of all the things Ididdo.

Players arent always as judgemental as you fear they might be.

We bagged the win only a couple of attempts later.

Patience and kindness go a long way.

In fact, theres plenty I have yet to even try.

I have yet to get the Rathalos mount, but I promise you its not from lack of trying.

Of course there are.

But I wont be making a list and holding myself to it.

If I manage it, great.

If I dont, Ill remind myself to look back at all the things I did achieve instead.
