Love who you are and where you are at...And also where others are at

Okay, we can all admit that at one point in time, we have wished to have what others around have. Being competitively natured it is only natural for us to feel this initial feeling. It is hard when we work really hard, are very disciplined, or dress up cute and we do not get attention for it. Sometimes it feels like everyone else around us is constantly getting the attention.

This can place a human being in a very dangerous place- It can cause jealousy and unthankfulness for one's current situation... Being jealous will only cause passive aggressive behavior and unthankfulness for our current situation causes us to become insecure. These are two realms that can be hard to overcome; however, with the right amount of mind and heart pressure, we can overcome this natural tendency if we train it to.

One thing that I have learned is realize that there is NO SUCH THING as perfect timings or formulas. I HAD to get over that because every person has a different formula and time that works for them. For example, it may be some girls' time to have a serious boyfriend or even be engaged. It may be some other girls' time to be the best at her sport. It may also be another girls' formula to act, eat, and dress a certain way.

It is important for us not to try and jump on another person's timeline. We have our own and we need to appreciate where we are at and where we are going... Otherwise we will never be happy and we will be MEAN GRUMPY GIRLS! We also need to appreciate where others are at. We should be happy for them that their time has come and that a formula works for them.

Keep your head up and keep on your own timeline and concoct your own formula. Be confident in that and you will be more happy.
