No matter how good you want to be at something there are always extenuating factors way beyond your control that will cause disappointment.

So enjoy your achievements but know they won't last long.

You can't save everyone. No matter how hard you try.
At some point you have to accept that or it will constantly destroy you and you'll never feel happy.

State your case as honestly as you can.
Listen to ALL advice offered, even from those who advise contrary to your wants.
Maybe they can see things you're blind to.

Take time and care for yourself.
Hard to do when you feel swamped by the needs of others.
But if you fall exhausted it's unlikely anyone will come to your rescue.
