TLDR: You can accomplish anything you set your mind to. The only time you can fail at a goal is when you no longer exist in this world. Instead of wasting time worrying about how you failed and thinking nothing will make the situation better reflect on the experience with a sound mind. Take the experience and turn it into a strength. Take that time you put into crying and complaining and continue moving forward strong because if you dont you just might drown in it. Also, this post is not too long. Please take at least 5 minutes out your day to read this. Comment if you choose, share if you feel the message. I am always open to hear other peoples opinions. Derek Mr-Chill Case : When did you start being deep pause. I hope you dont mind me making this into a status instead of just a response to the post. I got this way because I got tired of people complaining about small things they could change. I got tired of seeing the same people making the same mistakes over and over again. I got tired of seeing myself do these very same things. These past two years changed me a lot. Ive always thought like this, just being more vocal and stepping outside my box a bit. I was depressed for a while, but I never really reached out to anyone. It was something that I dealt with on my own. I felt like I had lost so much and so quick that it just had me feeling like crap. I felt I was stuck on a roller coaster plummeting down an endless drop. Lost my first car, lost who I thought was the love of my life, got injured and was not doing my best in school. These things were constantly plaguing me in the back of my mind although I never really showed it. It wasnt until recently I realized why I was so upset with myself. It was an INSTILLED FEAR of FAILURE. I wasnt molding into what American society wanted. Society tells us how we should be living and how we should be progressing in life as we get older. I REALIZED THAT I DONT HAVE TO LIVE HOW SOCIETY WANTS ME TO LIVE TO BE HAPPY. I got tired of being in that depressed state having that horrible mentality that I had some how failed. I realized that nothing would change for me unless I took action, and dedicated TIME into making myself into a better person. The first steps to achieving that change in mentality were losing weight, finishing up school, fighting against my fears and being HONEST. The honesty portion I am seeing is one of the toughest things because the truth hurts, BUT if you listen to others you just might be able to better yourself. If several people are saying the same things about you maybe you should take some a second, really reflect on yourself and see why these things are being said about you without getting upset. People unfortunately are too quick to get emotional about these situations that they often get infuriated and completely ignore what is being said instead of listening. I realized that if you dont say something then others will not know how you feel and often the situation only gets worst. Instead of running from these situations and remaining silent I began to tell people how I felt about the things they did, not because I want to hurt their feelings but because if I didnt say anything nothing would change. Its a focus for progression, not just for myself but for any and everyone I interact with. I want to see nothing but the best from the people around me. It was when I begin to better myself that my eyes truly opened up to all the negative images that our society spews out to its citizens. I begin to question whether America really cared about its citizens. I begin to wonder if THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS was really a pursuit of happiness or just a facade to get people caught up on themselves and turn a blind eye to their neighbor. American society promotes segregation over unity and that has never fit my mentality. Anyone who knows me should know this. Also, lol. You dont need to add the pause. I got a laugh out of it though.
