 Growing up has its benefits. It has its downsides as well You have to go to work every day to understand that if you don't you may not be able to pay your rent You have to work hard and still create plans for your growth. You have to save for your future It is an exciting time to be alive. Things may not always be easy You can work very hard and yet have no results to show for it You will be alright eventually Many have told the path and returned with fruits if you keep at what you love doing long enough You will excel at it. In this video, I will share with you nine difficult things you have to do in your lifetime 1. Stay optimistic. This is perhaps the most important rule of all Do not give into the temptation of this world to follow your situation How we perceive things are often very far from reality. You may have a great job with excellent benefits But when compared to some people your age, it will make you look poor Don't beat yourself up about something that you cannot change. Do your job diligently and Commit to doing better for yourself You're not in competition with anyone and you sure as hell don't have standards set by anyone for you to live by Be kind to yourself. You're trying. Being alive is hard enough. When you fail, smile It is an opportunity to do better next time. Approach everything with optimism. Give it your all You will never actually get the results you want unless you're willing to come to the table every day ready for battle The day you think of yesterday's failure when you want to begin today's work It's the day optimism flees. You're stronger smarter and greater than you can possibly imagine 2. Forgive yourself and others. Making a chain break from the past may sound easier said than done How can you after five years of physical and verbal abuse? It may seem like it is impossible to just move on It is not easy for anyone at all, but you have to try Forgiveness is the pathway to healing and if you cannot forgive the people who hurt you You cannot heal healing takes time let go. It is not worth it Don't let the past define your future instead take your future into your hands and choose to be happy You cannot birth your dreams with a broken heart when you're always hurting You don't have space to accommodate the people around you that love you You also pushed them away because you're scared of being hurt again. Let some light in smile today is a new day 3. Let go of the past. Have you ever felt like the past keeps haunting you? Perhaps you have it is easier to stay in denial really than it is to let go of the past You will wear yourself out of thinking so much. It is unhealthy people who carry the past around Sell them have time for the present You have to decide whether you want to always be in the past or whether you want to give your current and future a Chance you may have been mistreated at your last job, but the co-worker in your new job Probably don't know that they don't deserve you snubbing them for something they didn't do you have to try to be in the present Stress actually comes from worrying about the past and the future The only time you will not be stressed is if you are here in the present The world will continue whether or not you choose to let go. Why not live? 4. Build a strong support system.
