"Don't Expect - Just Live"
Life is like a reality show; and we are the casts in it, faced with the mundane task of literary techniques of suspense, Tragicomedy, Comedy, Tragedy, heroes, heroines, villains, Sarcastic situations, ironic experiences.. Life is Literature happening in the form of "Dreams and Reality"
Understanding human nature is Paramount, but get acquainted with the truth about life to avoid being surprised at the upturn of events happening in it and causing yourself much pain than you deserve.. 'HerMixedMuse'
ZERO EXPECTATIONS
Expect zero nothing from nobody! ever heard that much expectations hurts? It really does, when I was in my final year in school, I had much assurance from people around me promising to accomodate and give me the connection to a job after school, I had so many expectations!! but when I graduated from school, went for my one year clarion call and came back, the rest is just a "documented life files" it was a hillarious experience, I had to face the reality "Don't expect too much from anyone ". People tend to leave you at the point of your need, but that's life anyways! Don't depend on anyone to be the light to illuminate your darkness! you weren't put on earth to spend the rest of your life depending on anyone, learn to be independently consistent.
TOUGH SITUATIONS UMASKS TRUE FRIENDS
Tough situations reveals true friends, chose your cycle well and understand that everyone is not genuinely happy for you. Wear your heart on your sleeve that's the easiest way to avert getting hurt. People will always have a story or two to tell when they see you succeeding, infact even when you are just investing ,they will always have one or two negative things to utter about you and your investments, what do you do? Don't even listen to them, pay less attention best believe they will be at the sideline of your success story cheering for you.
PRIORITISE YOUR HAPPINESS
Do what makes you happy and what is right at all times because if you listen to the long list of the "Do's and Don't's" you might end up being the person the society wants you to be and not whom you want and need yourself to be. Because you are going through a bad phase, doesn't mean you are the only one that has been hit with a thunderbolt, someone out there must have gone through the same predicament, so don't act all gloomy and moody like you are wedging a war with everyone around you . You can either be yourself or spend the rest of your life sulking in someone else's shadow, so, live your life on your own terms!! Boom! I said it!! Live it on your own principles!! Don't imitate anyone's lifestyle!! You are you, so be you.
The best motivation and inspiration you could ever get out of life, are the ones you give yourself, if you are not ready to accept "self healing" all those lines and words won't have any effect on you. Not all relationships leads to marriage, get used to it and stop repeating "After all we went through" he left me or "after all I did for her" she left me, hey man!! That's why its life!! Stop lurking in self sympathy, Stop trying to force relationships to lead to marriage! People who are poor will always feel inferior around the rich(the society's ideology), "hard truth" but that's not me!! You ain't feeding me or paying my bills, so "we are all rich with different means of attaining to our needs." Mph!!
Everyone is going through their own personal struggle, so, the bottom line is ; life ain't perfect for anyone! So, don't act like you are the only one with a problem. Money and blood works together they say, but money can't get you peace of mind, that's one truth you have to discover yourself.
GOD NEVER FAILS
God exists amidst all these, wanna doubt ?? I am a living proof!! That man up there is completely amazing!! You might not be at the spot you want to be, but you are definitely not where you used to be, and the process you have encountered is just the necessary experience you need to attain greater heights.
Consistency and persistence my dear!! What am I saying? That's the keys to survival. People will notice the smallest thing you did wrong and forget about the thousand favours you did for them, when that happens, be glad you did them favours"
BRACE YOURSELF
Tough times will definitely suffix, it can't be averted the question is "how prepared are you to go through it?" Not strong enough? Learn to be!! Because life's not a bed of roses but its definitely not filled with constant thorns! "Phew" what a life!! Be prepared because when you face your biggest challenges the people around you, will mock you secretly and laugh with you in the open, only the few courageous foes can actually reveal themselves to you, when it happens? Be thankful they did!! Because it takes a lot of "guts" to look someone in the face and say "Hey man! Am glad it happened to you" The enemy you seek is within, not outside!! Or should I say the enemies?
The constant betrayal you get in life is always from a friend, when this happens learn the basics from your experience and move on because life ain't finished with you yet.
Don't trust too much, its okay if you get me wrong, you know why? The reason behind most pains we have been through or going through is evident of "trust" but don't be a sadist either! The only period in life where you are surrounded by lots of friends is when they are draining you in the pretence of "geng" "cartel" "blood" hahaha "sarcastic humans"!
Encounter a financial delation and see who's with you, keep them around you, because they are your " real geng" People will always be rich and happy on Social media, trust me, life is giving everyone their own share of "Acts and Scenes" they just cant post that
.
AVERT COMPARISON
The fastest way to a dead end is Comparison, learn to be contented with what you have, try harder and better because you want to and not because you are in a secret competition or comparison with anyone, the only person you are competing against is yourself. People who has average rich spouse would always wish they had more, how selfish can we be? People will always pay less attention when you are promoting your business or page, because its not a celebrity" posting it, we don't build each other, get used to it and don't feel disappointed at any point because it's the truth about life.
The bottom line is : even when you do the right or wrong thing, you would still be criticized for it nevertheless, so, live on your own terms!! Exist and live a sweet life, explore!!
