Success is not a cure for anxiety or depression.
Sometimes it’s an amplifier. When people appear to be excelling externally, they may still be suffering internally. By sharing your own struggles, you make it easier for others to open up about theirs.
I share a few things that piqued my interest recently on well-being and success, they are as following:
It is hard to follow your passion. (Human Science)
The words swirl in the air, “Do what you love.” If you know in your heart what you are doing is what makes you tick and smile, then you are right on track. They say, “If you pursue your passion and look for joy, meaning lasts.” Arrive with purpose, you thrive and are more successful.”
Social media and it’s engaging effects. (science)
If you look real closely, everyone around you has a tool that allows them to express their opinion, whether it was in the then or now. Social media use has no more impact on teenagers’ well-being than eating potatoes. Teenagers will be teenagers. What matters more for them is sleep, breakfast, being bullied and smoking pot, which has been the trend in the 80’s and still remain now. The effects, however, ltechnologies have on us depends on how we use them, engaging actively with social media, feeling in control of it will predict a better well-being outcome.
Engineers take the spring, but writers and english majors stay consistent. (Comparative literature, Social Science, Humanities)
Writers may earn less initially but they catch up over time, while engineers need to keep up with technology because things become obsolete quickly. What becomes more valuable is critical thinking, communications, and collaboration skills. Reminder to keep building these throughout a lifetime.
Finally Raise “Kind” kids don’t worry so much about success, it will come through this basic characteristic.

I was shopping at the grocery store the other day. As I perused the produce department looking for some vegetables, I overheard a mom talking to her daughter of maybe 3-years of age.
The little girl asked, “Why did you help that person?”
The mom said, “Because, the person needed help and it’s nice to help someone if you notice they need it.”
At the dinner table, if you have dinner together at all, don’t just ask kids how their test went, ask them how they helped someone or who helped them.
