It’s silly how we think there is no success outside our own terms…
There is life outside our life.
There is happiness outside our definition.
There is success outside our perception of it.
I am fascinated that took me so long to recognize my lunatic obsession with success.
I get sold on one idea, one ideology, one definition of success..
Blindly ignoring life's riches.
People buy emotionally and justify logically.
We don’t care about ideology’s fundamental values. We care about what ideology can do for us.
That was me for the last four years.
I measured success solely by money and status.
No other variable was taken into my success formula.
It’s sad, to be honest.
But it is true.
That was my reality.
Each person is selfish.
Even partner search is a selfish self-oriented chase. You are looking for somebody who will make the rest of your life easier and more fulfilled.
And you are definitely not choosing your partner because of your strong feelings for him/her.
But don’t worry.
Life is so rich.
Love you all.
