Discover, Accept, then Run

One of the worst things you can do for your life is sit around watching others live theirs.

Another one of the worst things you can do for your life is expect to be at a certain level based on distorted ideas mainly dealing in comparison.

This generation thrives on information, whether it is about a distant being or close acquaintance. We seem to follow people closely and draw our conclusions about life from them.

But can it be that we are too engulfed in others’ series of events and not enough in ours to actually live our lives?

We can’t be so concerned with what others are doing and miss out on what we should and can be doing. This is where hate begins to shine dim, where envy peaks his ugly head from the dirt. Because the more you look on others’ lives, the more you begin to form an opinion which could turn positive, but mostly negative.

The limelight is just full of normal people who knew other normal people and had the determination enough to get them where they are now.

Everyone has a different set of unfortunate events. Our lives take many different turns. It is very rare that you will find someone who went through the exact same process you did, and I mean down to a tee. 

It takes work to get somewhere in life, that is of course if you’re not a part of a family that is already known for something (i.e. The Kardashian Bunch).

If you aren’t part of “royal lineage” then guess what, you have to play the cards you’ve been dealt.

If you allow what others are doing to cause you to doubt your identity, your beauty, or your capacities, then how will you accomplish anything? 

Never compare your life to the lives of others. It’ll only hinder you from reaching your own heights even if you’re comparing yourself to “regular” people.

Discover your process, Accept where you are then Run after what is uniquely yours.

  1. Then that will help you learn more on who you are and your direction will have a different meaning. You will have a better sense of who you are while you're in your process of discovery. I like the part were you said "never compare your life to the lives of others". You will whine up losing yourself in the process of comparing lives. Why don't we find our identity, our purpose, and "Accept where you are then Run after what is uniquely yours"(C. Amaris Felton).
