Something that's been on my mind

Wisdom from the mouths of babes



'The power of love rathur than the 'love of power' brings peace to this humble abode right now.' peace unto ye

There's nothing wrong with going through your whole life and never achieving anything, as it appears from the outside (e.g. never advancing in your career), provided that on the inside of your cocoon, you are achieving personal goals, things that actually matter to you (e.g. achieving long-term happiness and satisfaction with your life). Many people focus on the external goals, like fame and fortune, and never realize what they are doing. They say to themselves "I would like to go to a good college, so that I can get a good job, so that I can be happy"... but after a while, many people forget that the whole purpose is to be happy, and get caught up in the external goals that they have chosen to help them achieve their internal goal of happiness. I say, focus on the internal goal of happiness, the external goals will set and achieve themselves. Try to find happiness, do whatever makes you happy, and don't fool yourself by saying that being unhappy now will be made up for by being happier later. That's my advice. And honorseed, I'm only 15, so I may well be a babe as well, but I honestly believe that their is wisdom in what I've said, that's why I believed it when it was told to me.

 

you're right Henry and I'd add being self-confident with the happiness is an important part of staying physically and mentally healthy!

 

Grrr...

I'm now attending class full time.

But still having this problem.

I'm such a massive procrastinator, even though this is so important!

It's more than just procrastination, though...it's the urge to withdraw into nothingness.

And it's creating confusion and problems in other areas of my life, too (with my pretty-serious girlfriend). Sometimes I feel like I could be very happy with her, and I'll probably never be able to do better...and if I was to leave her to go do whatever (or nothing), I would be in a miserable depression for the rest of my life. Other times I feel like there might be somebody out there that's a better match for me, or just that I don't need to be in a relationship right now.

This is all very confusing for me...

 

My friend just advised me that he procrastinates about procrastinating......may work 4 U.
