It is not for nothing that they say: our destiny is in our hands.
It turns out that we cannot become happy unless we get up and take action.
We have only ourselves to blame for our failures. There are at least 7 habits that deprive us of happiness. Let's reveal them in detail.
We communicate with individuals who are unpleasant to us
We don't dare to tell our envious and ill-wishers to go to hell. We have to greet them and smile at them as if everything is fine.
But this looks more like mockery or even torture! You can't put banal rules of decency above your own interests.
Keeping negativity and resentment inside is very harmful. We must listen to the voice of our hearts. Stop putting up with attacks from mean neighbors, humiliation from bosses, and sneering smirks from relatives!
They have been asking for rudeness for a long time, so let them get what they deserve in full. Neither salary, nor benefits, nor fear, nor shame are worth our suffering!
We try to keep up with other people's success, we envy other people
We often get upset when classmates, acquaintances, relatives buy a car, build a house, open a business, fly abroad. This way we will never motivate ourselves to succeed.
Comparison is appropriate in one case - when we highlight something useful for ourselves. For example, effective methods and strategies that lead to success. Otherwise, we had better stop comparing our achievements with others.
We live our own unique life. This means that someone else's life scenario will definitely not suit us.
A separate word about idols. We should not imitate them in literally everything, otherwise we will lose our own individuality.
We can follow the path of great people. There is no need to completely transform into a pop diva or a rock idol. There is no point in becoming like someone if there is no positive change from it.
We greedily consume everything that is imposed on us
We spend all day on the Internet. On the vastness of the World Wide Web we find various content: movies, news, articles, videos and much more.
We are not always presented with pleasant and reliable information. However, we take it at face value. We fall into a dangerous dependence and lose the ability to think sensibly.
We urgently need to break free from information captivity! When we free ourselves, we will stop being nervous and suffering because of natural disasters, wars, accidents, murders, economic crises, which are now on everyone's lips.
You can't trust everything. It's up to us to learn how to filter information and choose the most important.
We complicate things a lot
We need to wage a fierce battle with this trait. It turns our existence into a nightmare! We invent a lot of problems for ourselves, and then grab our heads in an attempt to solve them.
Reasonable people close their eyes to trifles. They concentrate on vital issues. They feel sorry to waste time and energy on nonsense. We must urgently follow their example before we go completely crazy!
We are always waiting for “manna from heaven”
We do not value today and those short happy moments that will not be repeated, and in vain. We want to get everything at once, but it does not happen that way.
When our hopes are not met, we suddenly give up and stop noticing the beauty around us. The best may not come, we must be happy with what we have now!
We attach great importance to other people's points of view and other people's statements.
We are constantly afraid of being judged and follow the lead of cunning advisers. We forget that there are no people in the world who would please everyone. This is an unrealistic desire.
Our life is not so long to sacrifice ourselves and try to live up to other people's expectations. Our task is to develop self-respect and self-love. Those around us will certainly understand how highly we value ourselves. Their attitude towards us will noticeably improve.
Universal love is unattainable. A millennium wouldn't be enough to win it. So what's the point?
We stubbornly try to become perfect
Naturally, everyone wants to achieve a lot. For example, to “pump up” their appearance and skills. Unfortunately, we sometimes pay too much for what we want and end up disappointed.
In this situation, the main thing is to stop in time. There is no point in “jumping out of your pants” if the result does not meet expectations. Otherwise, we can lose more than we gain.
