The question is simply “how,” and the answer is simply “be an adult.”
My definition of “adulting” is - in three forms:
1. being comfortable with discomfort
2. finding moments of joy and gratitude between moments of solving never-ending problems
3. taking 100% responsibility for yourself and your current life state, even if you came from adverse situations in your past beyond your control.
