Since my last post was helpful to some I thought I would write another about in hope of creating motivation for some people who feel unhappy about their current situation.
The problem with most people these days is all they ever do is focus on the unhappy, there is always something wrong in their lives. I’m sure each and everyone of you reading this post knows somebody like this or in fact could be this person. It happens to the best of us, sometimes life is over whelming and we as people get upset and unhappy.
I’m going to put a spin on things so bare with me, if you step out of the big picture life does suck. You grow up and spend 13 years learning things in which generally you may never use again in your life. Your best friends move away and go to different universities, move cities for work or just move away because they want to. In life you lose friends, more than likely to have your heart broken, witness people close to you suffer from health problems and at some stage in your life you will suffer from bad health yourself. Most people work for 5/7’s of their time and then with the little time they have spare they sort out their financials and try to spend that little bit of free time left with their family. Then Monday comes and they do this same cycle all over again.
This is how so many people view life these days, they tell themselves there will be a time in the future when they can stop being unhappy and start doing what they love. What these people don’t realize is living in the present is crucial to be happy. You have no control over the past or the future. The only place in time you have control over is Right now.
Life is great, it is the most exciting thing any of us will ever get to experience (as far as I am aware). It’s time people start being thankful for the little things, appreciating what they do have and not being upset at what they don’t. It’s time people follow their dreams and do what they want to do. Life is about making friends, loosing friends, falling in love and then falling out of love over and over again, changing jobs, changing cities/countries, missing people, partying, doing what makes you happy. Whether that’s swimming, dancing, sitting outside and watching the stars or just reading a book in bed, It really does not matter. Yes a lot of us here aspire to the fastlane but if you can not be happy yourself you really have to ask yourself what you are doing.
Life is a challenge so you may as well try have some fun while you’re living it.
Follow your heart, live your dreams.
