Hello friends,
How many of you really understand yourself? Its a tough question, right?
Most of us take a long time understanding ourselves. And going to the likes and dislikes of ourselves its also tough in some sense. Like if I ask you which color you like or which food you like. It will be very easy for you to answer them.. But there are ,many questions in this topic which we cannot answer.
There are situations when we cannot answer what are our likes and dislikes.
So its very important to learn about what you exactly like and what you hate.
But todays topic is different. I would like to tell you how important it is to focus on your likes and dislikes.
Suppose you love to do a particular thing or activity. If you do that activity you feel a kind of satisfaction within you. Like if I cook a delicious and healthy dish for my family I feel very satisfied. But why?? Nobody gives me a prize or congrats me for that. But still I love that cooking. This is because when somebody in my family asks for another bowl of that dish, I understand that the dish is appreciated. And this itself gives immense joy in somebody who loves to cook for others.
So why I told this story? This is because I understand what I like and what I do not like.
Today I enjoy my life with all those things and work that I love to do. But it takes years to understand what you like and what you dislike.
So I will suggest you friends, if you really want to be happy and at the same time satisfied with yourself then try figuring out what you love and what you do not.
Now you subject yourself to situations or work or activities which you like, and remember. The world will not let you do them so easily. You have to fight your battle and thats good… After the battle is won just focus on your likes and dislikes.
If you are stressed by certain things or situations, try figuring them out and work hard to avoid them. Now some of us do not like to do our jobs because we think that we do not love doing them.. But I tell you…if you are getting paid well for that job and that's giving you a respect in the society , you can meet your needs with that job, then it would be your duty to work hard to maintain that. Remember one thing , if our fathers and some of our mothers did not have worked for money in their lives, we would hardly get any life for ourselves.
So be practical about earning and jobs that pay you…because money is very important to survive.
Apart from that, concentrate your time on what you like and stay away from what you do not like. Nobody wants to be sad…especially after the pandemic. We have suffered a lot of stress… !!
Its time to focus on yourself, your likes and dislikes. But do remember one thing. We are social beings so we have to interact with people so being selfish is not at all a right thing. If you help others in their needs, then dont think you are doing good to that person only.
Actually you are doing good to yourself..
