Be yourself

  


        Today I am very happy because I can meet my friends and we dicuss about half year resolution. I notice that every one of us has different goals. Some of the goals are related financial and some are related to personal development.  

        After I listen to other people's goals, I start to get panic because I feel that I am not achieving many goals this year. I am still searching for my passion and understand myself. Some of my friends have achieved their goal. Initially, I feel sad because I feel that I am not good when compare to them. After I calm down and ask myself, is it other people the same as my goal? Definitely not. Nowadays, the smartphone has become an essential tool in our life. Everyone can share their goal achievement in social media. Therefore, most of the people are easily influenced by others and feel that is not enough to achieve their own goal. They want to compare themselves to others. Don’t try to pursue the goal set by other people. This is the life that other people want. Try to find a quiet place and sit down to reflect and discover yourself. Follow your inner voice and plan your goal according to your ideal life.

        Moreover, set a goal that you genuinely want to achieve in life. Don’t compare yourself to others and don't care how other people look at you. Just be yourself. Imagine that you are the snake and another person is the ax. When you are crawling around, the person falls from the cupboard and hit you. You are feeling angry and you bite the people. Is the person hurt? No. If you take other people's comments or criticism too seriously, you are suffering because you hate them. Other person do not know you hate them. Therefore, try to identify your weakness and improve them. Avoid hurt feelings if you are scolded by other people. The hard feeling will not sustain for a long time. One day it will go away and you can continue to live with your happy life.
