One Does Not Need To Tell The Whole World About Ones Skill In Order To Feel Confident About Them. Celebrate

One does not need to tell the whole world about one’s skill in order to feel confident about them. Celebrate your skills, but celebrate them in silence. Work hard on your skills, be proud, but do not push this onto others, and thus, remain humble. There will be opportunities given to you in which you will be able to show how talented you are, which by all means, show the world your strength! However until then, simply remind yourself every now and again of how amazing you are, and live knowing that you’re trying your very best with this beautiful development of your character.

In the world that we live in today, there is a constant pressure projected onto us each and every day. We are told that we must continuously work hard, make more money, and acquire more possessions. Then, and only then, will we be considered as ‘successful.’ Right? No, not even close. This road only leads to a life of pure discontentment. Before we get dragged into this cycle, we must first consider what ‘success’ truly is, and it may be slightly different for everyone. Take a moment to ask yourself, and see what you have to say. What do you consider to be successful? Yes, for some it may involve making some money during your lifetime, although make sure that, what ever it is, it’s your own opinion, not society’s.

Ladies and gentlemen, our national bird!

i want to live in the peaceful feeling you get underwater where everything sounds softer and the lights are all tinged blue and the world feels silky and light and surreal
