Our daily habits cultivate the thoughts we think which are directly proportional to the person we become. If one is meditating daily or working on improving themselves, the chances of them bursting out with anger in an awful situation is low. Whereas the person who binge-watches negative content and is not contributing anything to his/her physical and mental wealth is likely to have more problems to tackle. Set targets but work on your habits to achieve that targets.
When certain or unwanted situations occur, the first thought that comes to our mind is what will people think. Instead of analyzing what we desire or what we want or how to handle a situation, unconsciously our actions are driven by the fear that society must not judge us. Break off this train of thought and consciously think about what you want.
Social Media has made it easy to compare ourselves to others. Everybody has their own path and comparing ourselves to other just makes us feel more insecure. Stay focused on your journey and your learnings to get what you want from your life.
