Hey.
Just needed someone to talk to you and you always know the right thing to say.
I have been feeling down. I feel like everyone around me has achieved so much and that everyone is so successful and happy and I am one big failure.
Is it okay to feel like that sometimes?
Leave your comments. Let's see each other's views on this topic.
Here was my reply to the email:
That is a natural feeling when we see other people around us achieving more than we are. I deal with that feeling by being happy with my purpose in life. It keeps me going every day. What other people are achieving isn't what I want to achieve in life. Therefore, I can be happy and supportive for the people around me who are achieving their goals. Most people are not where they want to be in life, myself included. I still have a lot more to accomplish before I will feel successful. It is important to be supportive and happy for other people who are achieving more than we are. You should never be bitter or sad about it, because you will have your day too. You will overcome the obstacles that you are facing now. You just have to believe in yourself, and remember that life works on God's timing, not our own. Find happiness within your current situation. Don't be so hard on yourself. Spend some time soul searching to figure out what you really want to achieve. Be honest and realistic with yourself. Set short term and long term goals. That way you will feel some accomplishment when you accomplish your reasonable, short term goals. The long term goals will keep you pushing forward. Make a list of goals, and a dream board. Use that as a blueprint for your life. Most importantly think back to the things that you have already accomplished. Things that you were scared of, but you overcame it. If you made it through those things, you can use that same courage to get through the new challenges that you are facing.
Love, Live, Give, More.
Love Always,
Sheri xoxo
