We often hear our parents saying, “beta be a good boy/girl then only aunty and uncle will admire you.”

Do you know this results in a lot of stress even when we grow up?

As we grow, peers, society and the people we admire replaces our aunt and uncle.

And we always fall in the loop of impressing them, which sometimes take us away from our true selves.

Sometimes all of this leads to stress and anxiety in our life.

I saw some of my friends having this issue, so I am writing this article to help others in the same situation.

Some of you might even hate me for writing this article, but that’s okay for me.😅

What Happened When You Try to Keep Everyone Happy With Yourself

One of the biggest lessons I learnt in my childhood is,

If you try to keep everyone happy, you end up being unhappy.

Sometimes, in your attempts to please others, you may end up putting your loved ones in suffering.

That is why I focused on making only my mom understand what I am doing and why I am doing it.

You must be wondering what made me realise such a big thing at a younger age.

I will come to that point.

I am not going to more details of the people for some reasons.

I saw one of my loved ones always end up struggling a lot in life and faced some challenges though there’s nothing wrong on their side.

The stories are many, but the conclusions are similar.

I want to remind you of something.

“Though we have a pair of eyes, both don’t see an object in the same way. But how can you expect someone to see the world as you see it?”

Here the concern is not about who is right because we are not here to judge things, so better to not worry about what others think.

Some may have grudges over people for what they did and always want to show them who they are and strive for it constantly.

I have also been there.

But do you think, who is suffering from all of this?

“Yes, the one who wants to prove something to others.” And me during those times.

Yes, it cost me my peace. But the others were busy with their life.

What do you think is best to do?

I won’t tell you this.😅 But do me a favour by letting me know your thoughts by commenting below.

This will also help me understand if I’m communicating my thoughts better.
