Too often we let the little frustrations of each day blind us to the beauty in each day. We get caught up in our own frustrations, and literally don't know our lives to be any better than the few things that are not going our way.
But, the older we grow, we tend to ignore these little frustrations. We become more quieter. Life humbles us gradually as we age. We realize how much nonsense we have wasted time on.
Here are some things we tend to expend lots of mental and physical energy on when we're younger, that we eventually realize matter a lot less than we originally thought:
Social Media Activities
Most times, we worry about Facebook likes, Low Regram on Instagram, Lesser Followers on Twitter, The Celebrity that refused to follow back this and that. Believe me, when I say this, I know a few ladies who gets annoyed if the picture they uploaded on Facebook gets fewer likes than the previous one. They tend to think people are beginning to get tired of them. Tell me you do not have friends like that.
The Little Failures You Often Worry About
As an entrepreneur, when you set goals and take calculated risks in life but still fail, you become frustrated. Most people quit immediately while others strive for a while and then quit. As you grow older, you eventually learn that there will be times when you succeed and there will be times when you fail, and both are equally important in the long run.
How Perfect Everything Could Be, Or Should Be.
As you grow older, you tend to let go of fantasies facing real life itself. Perfectionism not only causes you unnecessary stress and anxiety, but it is also actually a fantasy! There is no perfect time, perfect person, perfect home etc. If you feel that you are struggling with perfectionism or are in need of some support, click https://www.betterhelp.com/start/and see how online therapy can help you.
The Pressure To Make It Happen At Once
When we were young it seems like faster is better, but in time we witness the power of "Slow and Steady". The older your eyes grow, the more clearly they can see through the smoke and mirrors of every quick fix. Anything worth achieving takes dedicated daily effort. Period!
Judging Others For Their Shortcomings
We all have days when we're not our best. And the older we grow, the more we realize how important it is to give others the break we hope the world will give us on our own bad days. Truly, you never know what someone has been through in their life, or what they are going through at the moment. As you grow older, you will learn how people fight one issue or the other in their everyday life.
Understand The Importance Of Prayer
Prayer works! I am a testimony! As you grow older, you will understand how important prayer is in your life journey.
