Technology = Unsatisfaction

So I was forwarded this video in an email and wow...so true...We are so lucky and yet so miserable? Is the advancement of technology going to lead us to a lifetime of unhappiness? No matter how much we have or how easy someone has it, they are never satisfied. We are always looking for more... I got frustrated this morning because it took my computer 10 seconds instead of 2 to load my emails... pretty sad...

This is YOUR life, enjoy it!

I've always tried to think of myself as someone who doesn't let what other people think affect me. However, if I'm being honest with myself I do find myself stopping to think of what others may think. I think we all do it, whether consciously or not. But why? I mean really, why do I care if someone doesn't like what I'm doing?! If I am not hurting anyone and I am truly happy why should I care? I have acknowledged the fact that I am a people pleaser, I want everyone that matters to me to be happy. Not only happy with themselves, but happy with me. My new years resolution this year, among many others, was to stop holding myself back from doing what makes me happy because I am afraid I'll upset, disappoint, or let down someone else. Often times, the things we spend our time stressing about when it comes to what others will think are completely unnoticed by the person we think will care. Leaving us unhappy for absolutely no reason. So know when I find myself saying "Oh I want to" or "I like this" but not doing it for fear of the unknown I just...DO IT! We only get one life, one journey, one chance to do whatever is you feel you were born to do on this earth. So who cares what other people expect you to do, do you! They have their own lives to make themselves happy! So whatever it is that you worry about, whether its how you dress, wear you hair, what you go to school for, what job you want, who you date, if you date, or whatever it is do what makes you truly happy. This isn't me saying to do things that are self-destructive (although you would know because then you wouldn't TRULY be happy), this is me saying it's okay to be a little selfish when it comes to your happiness! In the end the people that truly love you will be happy because you're happy!

CIAO! 

Success...where do I go to find that?

What is the key to success? We all are taught from a young age that being successful is important. First of all what is success? Well in my opinion, I don't believe that any definition would sufficiently define "success". Success, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. It has different meanings for all of us. It may be passing that Biology Final, it may be climbing mt. everest, it may be making a million dollars, and it may just be making through the day. However, one thing I do believe is that success if achieved with goals. It is important to set goals, always reaching higher, without it its easy to lose focus, get off track. What are your goals? It could be for this year, this month, or even today, think about them, write them down and make a gameplan to accomplish your goals. Don't let anyone tell you what you can or can't do, you truly hold the key to your own success. I hope that you all continue to reach success in your lives because you deserve it! I hope that you continue to make goals for yourself and with perserverance I truly believe you can accomplish anyting your heart desires. So, its a new year, a fresh start, what do you have on your list for 09?
