Some truths be told!

There are many perceptions and beliefs that we have built in our lifetime which can be wrong but as they are our beliefs we refuse to even think that it can be wrong. There are many beliefs related to someone or something that we believe which are wrong. This seems to be a very small problem but this can affect us badly. Here are some of the brutal truths that we should know –

1. Being Perfect is unrealistic : 

Now this sentence is not to de-motivate you, it’s a fact one cannot be perfect and you can’t do anything about that. What you can do is give your 100% in everything that you do. Many people believe that being perfect is a good thing. But consistent efforts are what really matters. You should not think of what others think, being a better version of yourself is what you need to pursue and it requires consistent efforts.

2. Can’t make everyone Happy – 

This is a problem that most of us face. We spend most of our time in being great in someone else’s eyes. Trust me you are not a clown doing things to make someone happy. The clown only does that because he’s getting paid for it. You gotta do what makes you happy. This is a fact that you can’t possibly make everyone happy, there is going to be someone who’ll be upset with you no matter how noble act you do. So you have to ignore them and do what makes you happy.

3. Material Possessions – 

Buying an iphone that has just been launched when you current cell phone is working just fine is just stupidity. We may think that material possessions will make us happier but the fact is they don’t make you happy or better. We constantly keep on buying stuff that we don’t need just to look cool. We like material possessions when spiritual activities are so underrated. Spiritual activities are what give you eternal peace. It gives you meaning of who you really are.

  

4. Finding happiness – 

This might be related to spirituality. Finding happiness in outside world is never gonna make you happy, this includes expecting things from others which has the least probability of giving you happiness. It might work sometimes but most of the time you’re gonna get disappointed. We must find happiness in ourselves. It is not a treasure that you can find anywhere outside. You’ll find it inside yourself.

5. Actions >>>>>>> Words – 

We all know for a fact that work we do has more impact than the words we speak. Bragging everytime about what you are going to do is just a waste of time. We should always focus on how people behave more than what they say to us. Actions are always better than words. Doing something for an hour is still better than thinking or saying for 10 hours.

 

6. Live every moment – 

Now this is a point where even I lack a bit, living every moment to fullest is what really matters. Constantly worrying about future or regretting about past is not how we are supposed to live. Doing things and enjoying the work or the thing you’re doing is what really mean, despite what the result is. As a great speaker said once – The day you live your life to the fullest is an occasion every other day is just a date in the calendar. 

So these are some of the points or truths that we should really keep in mind. Life is short for not living to the fullest and this world is an imperfect one but this is the only one we got so ignore the bullshit and live peacefully.
