The More You Want The Less You May Get
There are some things that the more you want, the more you will never have.
1. Acceptance
Since we are considered social beings, it is natural to only want to be accepted.
You want your parent's to accept your bf/gf/husband/wife.
You want your friends to accept your weirdness.
You want people to love you yet you love to hate too.
Stop seeking it. It is only when you accept that acceptance will never come as you want, which is when acceptance will come as you want, but you don't need it anymore.
2. Youth
No man can turn back time. Time awaits no man.
Cherish your youth and not waste it on petty matters like shitty friends or partying. Haha. Call me a square but I like to chill in my own little corner. Pun totally intended.
3. Perfection
This is something I've really learnt to let go off over the years. I think I was brought up in an environment where mistakes would not be tolerated and I felt that anything short of an A was failure. Or not getting chosen or representing some thing really was something unacceptable. With time, and more exposure to different people, cultures, issues and situations, I really have grown so so so much!
But there are things that the more you crave, the more you are likely to change and be better.
I won't number this because, I believe that happiness is the true root of success. If you are happy, you will find that success will couple this feeling of euphoria. It is the reward of a positive mind set and the driving force for anything good. Positivity attracts more positivity; negativity attracts more negativity.
Success alone does not make you happy too. A king may be lonely, a rich man can also be poor.
Success isn't everything. Happiness is.
