Live the life you want, don’t just talk about it

01 Are you making a living or living?

I heard a college classmate say a few days ago: "Now I am clamoring every day not to be an accountant in my next job. It's so hard! But every time I still go back to being an accountant."

—— I want to say to my classmates: Give up what you should give up, insist on what you should insist on. When you don’t know how to choose, just persist. At least you can gain some experience and experience in facing desperate situations. Experience.

There is also a friend who finally got his wish and opened his own clothing store. He is full of energy and energy!

——? I want to say to my friends: The ideal of life is for an ideal life. I'm so lucky to be able to choose and stick to doing what I love!

02 If you don’t work hard to live the life you want, you can only spend time dealing with the life you don’t want.

Finding what you want is a very real proposition. "What do I want?"

Many people say they don’t know what they want, but in fact they don’t dare to analyze what they want, or even bother to analyze what they want.

They are afraid that if they really analyze it, they will have to put in effort to study and work hard. So I muddle along, but in fact the ignorance and confusion in my heart is more tiring and more decadent.

When choosing a career, you also choose a lifestyle. If you don't work hard to live the life you want, you may have to spend time dealing with the life you don't want.

A lot of unhappiness actually comes from dissatisfaction. Dissatisfaction often comes from an unstable mind, and an unstable mind is because you don’t know what you want or what you want. The result is that you want everything and get nothing.

03 Every profession has its own hardships

My mother has been brainwashing me on and off since I was in college, saying: Look how good so-and-so is as a teacher. There are Saturdays and Sundays, winter and summer vacations, and the profession is respected; look at how good it is for someone to be a nurse, with stability, good benefits, and high salary; look at how good it is for someone to be a civil servant and have an iron job for life.

In fact, I want to say that every profession has its own hardships, but we have never experienced them, so sometimes it is difficult to understand.

Teachers must read in the morning, study in the evening, prepare lessons, attend classes, and correct homework;

It is normal for nurses to work day and night, have no holidays, and work overtime;

Civil servants must Face the judgment of the leadership and the supervision of the masses.

You only see the beauty of others, but you never see the hardship and hard work behind the scenery!

04 Don’t be envious but remain indifferent

When I opened a Taobao store before, many people said, I’m so envious of you. You can work at home and feel free!

Later, when I became a stay-at-home mother, some people said, "I envy you so much. You can spend time with your baby every day and don't have to work hard to make money."

Later, when I started working in the media, some people said, "I envy you so much. You can often carry a SLR around and still have time to write and do what you like."

It’s very interesting. People always look at the good things of others and envy them, and pursue what they call the “ideal life” in their hearts, but they don’t know that their current life may also be the “ideal life” of others.

Perhaps we are all farsighted and always live in looking up to others; perhaps we are all myopic and often ignore the happiness around us.

The important thing is not to indulge in envy but remain indifferent. The distance between you and big names lies in your time outside of work.

05 When your talent cannot support your ambition, it’s time to calm down and study

I majored in accounting in college, but I have never worked in this area. .

After graduation, I worked in customer service and administration, opened a Taobao store, and now work in the media industry. I went through many detours and suffered a lot, but I never gave up on improving myself.

Persistence in learning is not only to improve your abilities, but also your attitude towards working towards a better life. Sometimes learning, reading, and accumulating will not yield immediate results, but one day you will achieve success in your life at a moment that is unexpected but important to you.

I always say to myself that everything you experience at this moment is an indispensable asset for you, and it is also a direction sign that can help you gradually learn to take less detours.

When your talent cannot support your ambition, you should calm down and study; when your ability cannot control your goals, you should calm down and practice.

06 Living the life you want is more than just talking about it

What about you? What kind of life do you want? Stable and determined, you are still willing to fight for your dream again.

When you really want to do something, no matter how big the difficulty is, you can overcome it. When you don't want to do something, no matter how small the obstacle becomes, it becomes a reason.

Remember, be the person you want to be and live the life you want, don’t just talk about it.
