You are not “wasting your potential” because you took a break, or because you’re exhausted, sick or because you are struggling to find purpose. Please, take some time off, take care of yourself, listen to the needs of your body and your mind. Do the things you want to do to make you happy and fulfilled, not what others think you should, not what’s more successful in their minds. You aren’t wasting your life, nor wasting your potential. You are still deciding how to live it, what is the purpose of it, and you will find motivation to fight for what you want when you figure yourself out, but please take your time and don’t listen to the pressure of people around you to comfort to their expectations of success.
