We now live in a world where we are busy making money and making ends meet. We have to in order to survive. The competition is so high that sometimes we lose ourselves in that process. We are busy making a successful life so that no one related to us won't suffer. Having a decent bank balance, having a property or having a car. Working to the extreme to make that dream come true.

Sometimes, I blame the society for measuring standards for people. The world was a happy place before the internet but now, it is now a place to oppress each other with success pictures on how life journey and how we have made it in life and the person looking these pictures on other end might have not yet make it, this will make him feel less of a man and will want to do anything to succeed in life, we go beyond limit to be successful just to show the world that we have made it that we even forgot to be happy about the little things that matters.

But in that process, are we giving enough attention to our surroundings? People close to us or our loved ones, are we giving enough time to them? When we are gone, what will they say about us? Or even if someone left us forever, will we have enough memory to remember them?

Earning money and being successful is important in life. But never forget who you are and the people around you. Money is not everything. It is important to survive but make sure to take some time to bond with people around you. It will also help reduce the anxiety or stress that you are having because of all that work.

Trust the process, you will be successful one day for sure. But never lose your own soul in that process.

Gone are those days when we believe in gradual process because with patient, anyone can cross a mile a way but now, everyone want to be successful on time and I blame the society for making this standards. If not that we don't look beyond, most of the successful people that we have today are not in there early 30s, top 100 richest people in the world today are above 40 years old but you will see a teenage person want to be successful in life when he is still in college or living under the roof of his parent, indeed we have so many sad generations among us.

Life doesn't have a manual, just believe in your goals and objectives, life is not a linear line that you can have the way we want, you can fall as many times but always learn to progress and learn from mistakes, you will eventually get there one day if you are consistent in the journey.
