Today I learned that your inside is most important. Once that is solved, the outside can be much brighter for you. I always used to compare my efforts and achievements to those of others. But I learned the need to separate myself from others when deciding upon intentions of what I choose to do. Only you know truly what is right for you. Comparisons happen when you do not find enough within yourself to be content with. You cannot be confident of yourself alone. So try to prove to yourself, and perhaps others, that you are just as good, and even sometimes better at certain things than them. We are all different in personality, desires, and attributes; so, we all have different strengths and weaknesses. But the important thing is that you are happy. This can only be achieved if you make it happen yourself. I’m not saying helping others should be overlooked, but it is something we all should do. Even though we’re immersed in competition, it doesn’t mean we can’t set our own personal goals of achievement in the race. Decide what is right for you. And when you have achieved what you want, don’t let it be overshadowed if someone has done it better. You fulfilled what you set out to do.

ONCE YOU DECIDE ON DOING SOMETHING, MAKE SURE YOU PUT FORTH A EFFORT OF TRYING BEFORE YOU GIVE UP. IF YOU DECIDE TO BRING ALONG SOMEONE IN YOU TRIP TO SUCCESS MAKE SURE THEY'RE EQUALLY INTERESTED IN THE GOAL AS YOU ARE. MY PERSONAL GOAL OF THE YEAR IS TO FIND THE RIGHT LADY TO BE WITH. I HAVE TO FIND MY SELF BEFORE I BRING ANOTHER LIFE INTO MINE.
I loved your blog!!! Often a lot of people do things just to please someone or to compete with someone. This is defenitely an issue many people face ecspecially teenagers. Finding yourself is part of living.
I think your blog is so true. I am very content with who I am, I make others proud but first I am true to myself. I am happy where I stand but I would like to further myself!!!
That was hot people really need to here that...everyone doesn't kno that jus being their self is enough
I AM SOMEBODY 2
If you put your heart into something and really want and try to pursue it, then go for it. It doesn't matter what others think or say, it's your life. Do what makes you happy in your life, don't try to please someone else in the moment. That's what's wrong, people dictate their lives based on how others feel or what they have to say. I'm not saying hurt or bring people down in the process, but be you. If you constantly let people tell you that you're nobody or never going to amount to anything then you will start to believe it yourself. It all starts at home, which is you. Let it be known to yourself that you are somebody and then others will see and believe it as well.
i really like this blog. i truly believe the words, i believe if i take the time and effort to do things for myself i will be able to see who i am as a person. once people see that they will have more confidence in themselves. there achievement will shine and they will feel so happy doing achieving it.
