Let us just think about some of the promos of upcoming movies. We all know that a movie promo showcases the most exciting and awesome scenes in the movie. Only then the audience are stimulated to wait eagerly for movie release and watch it. Nobody wants to see normal lecture kind of stuff in a movie promo. The movie would be a disaster even before release if the promo is not crafted well and if it is boring.
Now what do we see on social media. Most of the photos and videos posted there are filtered versions of themselves. Everybody just shows their best part, best photos, happy faces, feel good content and ‘Life is Awesome’ kind of stuff.
We see only the best parts in everyone’s life and assume that we are the only ones having problems and miseries in life. And everybody else thinks the same. We might get a feeling that everyone has something that I lack. It makes you think of your limitations and drawbacks.
Just believe and remember that they are the commercials by others, that may or may not be the reality. Mostly they are not as everybody else is a human and going through their own life dealing with their own ups and downs. Even if someone is amazing flawless life, it is not a thing of concern to you. Having flaws, having problems, having lack is ok and fine. Just be grateful.
When you are conscious of this false, artificial, impressions that the word around you projects, then you will be just fine with what you have. You compare and you will be unhappy about something.
If you are authentic , you are supposed to have blemishes, spots, and some imperfections . You must believe that you are good enough. Even if you are missing something, you must know that anything is attainable and you deserve it for the reason you value it.
- Finally, it is not enough for you to just believe that you are good enough and you have what it takes to deserve it.
- You must take action and stop procrastinating.
- You must stop blaming others and external circumstances and take full responsibility for yourself.
- With discipline, tenacity and daily consistent steps we move closer to our desired objective.
- The progress we make keeps us going and ward of any negative influences of this world.
- Growth and improvement is more important than perfection.
- Many times it is important who we become during the roller coaster ride of the journey than the goal itself.
