A Complete Life

How often do we get distracted by life? The distractions presented by living cause us to forget to live. We end up spending energy focusing on what other people are doing, and saying. Over time, the diversions can really bring us down.

Do you attach your happiness to others? I had done this for a long time before realizing that I am the only one that can make me happy. Relying on others to "make you happy" will only burden them. This reliance can also degrade your relationships. True happiness must come from within.

Finding joy starts with loving yourself. I have seen plenty of social media content telling people to know their worth. A similar number of posts also talk about valuing others before they are gone. I have not seen as much emphasis being placed on falling in love with ourselves.

How can you love yourself? If you have a partner, this starts with not focusing on them too much. To be able to take of anyone, you must first take care of yourself. To do this, you will need to have your own goals and dreams.

Aim to be well-rounded while you are choosing your path. It is not a desirable outcome to have one hiccup be the thing that brings us crashing down. Redundancy is what will keep us focused on moving forward.

It is believed that an object in motion stays in motion along a straight line unless acted on by an opposing force. Which direction are you heading towards? If you are not satisfied, then I ask that you be that opposing force, check your compass, and go in your desired direction.
