Julien Smith is a business coach and writer who believes that people in this world like being silly just so that it gives them a false notion of being in control. There are many things we don’t want to believe in spite of it being the truth. Instead, we choose and select that part of life to believe as truth even though it may not be reality.
Our brains trick us into manipulating and changing memories for our benefit. We censor out those parts that we cannot come to terms with and fabricate the good parts to live in denial. We only recall the last event of a memory but not the whole. We then chose to remember memories of older memories putting together a fabricated version to fool our minds into believing what we chose to believe. It is the same as the telephone game Chinese Whispers where the same procedure happens which requires a player to repeat an incident from the past.

There are many people who live tougher lives than others in various parts of the world. There are people who can’t afford proper transport for school and need to leave early to make it on time. In fact, many youngsters in developing countries may even be working before or after school while others may be born into wealthy families as heirs of business empires. It is human nature and logical to presume that the latter would be living an enjoyable life but surprisingly that isn’t always the case although there are exceptions.

If you’re constantly wishing for a handsome prince to ride into your life and sweep you off your feet, you may end up growing into an old woman and all alone. However!! It pays to respect and love yourself. You should never depend on others for your happiness or else be prepared to ride an emotional rollercoaster where up will be with someone at your side and down will be when you suddenly find yourself alone. In most cases, it’s always the down ride that you may experience most of the time.

Just because you possess all the desired traits of character like beauty, handsomeness, education, won’t mean that life will lay a red carpet before you. Opportunities may or may not come knocking at your door.

Have you ever realized that there are 168 hours in the week which frankly is quite a lot of time? Scientists agree with Einstein who said that time isn’t constant. Stop thinking to yourself that you don’t have time or “it isn’t my priority”.

By not engaging in exercise and eating junk food, your health doesn’t become your priority, by not helping your wife around the house means your relationship isn’t your priority. This is a harsh truth but a fact. The things that you waste time on speak more about your character than a psychological test.

Life is never perfect. There is never a perfect time to marry or a perfect time to get a job or pursue higher studies. There is no perfect time to have a child or move to another state. When you keep waiting for the right time, you end up wasting a lot many years of your life. Waiting for the perfect time is just another way of you fearing a change in life and hiding behind “the perfect time”. You are well entrenched in your comfort zone and aren’t willing to change.

People who you feel are significant are simply too busy to reply to your 20th message. The employer is in the middle of something important and he doesn’t feel it necessary to give you a return call after the interview. To make everything much simpler to you, “they just don’t want to speak to you” and it’s because they don’t really care, being too busy or full of their own lives.

The moment you try to please and be perfect for everyone, that’s when you may end up being the most hated person instead. In certain circumstances, being kind, loyal, generous or noble means nothing for people who will still think crap about you even without having reason to. If you have a hot bod that would be the envy of a Victoria secret model, this doesn’t mean you won’t meet negative people in your life who will find imperfections to judge you by.

Who said it is? There are many who will never appreciate your hard work. If you happen to be a loving kind hearted person, this is no assurance that your partner won’t abandon you to your own fate. Evil deeds aren’t always punished and you may never receive help at your darkest hour.

But!! By this, one shouldn’t regard life as always bad. It’s just that you make your own life and do not expect too much from it.

Because of our natural instinct to survive and self preservation, we thus won’t exactly kill ourselves. But the reality is that we destroy ourselves daily by taking risks with no regard for the results and consequences.
The only way we avoid such incidents is by intelligence and awareness. By educating ourselves and understanding many things that are risky for our life, we give more meaning to our lives and prolong it simply by not indulging in foolish acts and indulgences.
