Every now and then and I let myself think for long enough that I start wondering: is this enough? Am I a total fuck up? just a little bit? does it matter anyway? how could I be better? what if i...? and then my distractions blissfully take over and I forget all that for a few weeks. Ho hum
It doesn't matter.
All that matters is that you have peace and contentment i think.
That's how I try to live. I fail often, but I never give up.
Fuck up compared to what? The middle-class aspirational consumerism-is-all lifestyle? Nah, that's not where it's at.

I solved that problem by accepting I was a fuckup. Lots of us are not perfect. That’s life.
same, I just try to be my best self
As long as I do my best, that's all that matters. Even if it's shit compared to others efforts it doesn't matter because I know I gave it my best shot. That's how I sleep well at night anyway.
Ignorance is bliss.
And yes, agreed with Spud, you're not a fuck up
