There are voices all around telling us what we can do, what we can't do, what we should do, and what we shouldn't do and unconsciously we tend to follow that voice, the voice that can pull us down and the voice that manipulates us. These voices aren't always the saviours or the guardian angels, it is a rarity but otherwise, they are just voices.
While we set out to do something, we always worry about the “society” or the environment and that discourages us from doing what we want to do. However, if you keep listening to that, you won't reach anywhere, and by pleasing others, you lose yourself. There are a lot of people pleasers who place others before themselves where they lose themselves in the process of pleasing others eventually destroying themselves.
Then there are the voices that judge you based on what you did in the past i.e., your past mistakes, and perceive you on that basis. It is like throwing down stones from a mountain when someone is trying to climb up. These voices don't think of you doing well in life because of what you were and how you were. These voices can be very discouraging and pull down your morale. It affects us more when we hear from the dear and near ones. Always keep in mind that we have got nothing to prove to anyone but ourselves. Or should I say, Prove Them Wrong.
Surprise them, Shock them with the results and you can be proven through the actions and not just words, as the former speaks louder than words. Instead of telling them that you are going to do it, tell them after you have done it and that's when they believe you because before that, the voices can be very discouraging and it can actually make you feel demotivated. There won't be anyone to support you or to change your life. Only you can change your life. No one can do it for you. You are your own supporter and competition and it is not to show everyone to be in their looks, but for yourself and that actually feels better and achieving than with others involving. That is what I am currently trying to achieve. There are obstacles here and there leading to a decline and me being judged for it, but then no matter how much you are pulled down, you have to rise up in style.
