Five Subtle Signs That You Are Destroying Your Life
All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone.
Plato famously said, ‘Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.’ So if you want to see and experience the beauty of life, you must develop the eyes for it. But how do we have such eyes when our eyes very often get clouded with various things?
Most of us see life as it is described to us. We are told that life is full of struggle, and we must prepare for it. We are told that the only thing that makes life worth living is money. So we go to college and study hard — not to explore the subject but to earn a degree — so that we may have a job that brings us more money than others.
We have an abstract idea called a career. We work our ass off and build a career, believing that it will upgrade our status and makes us happy. It promises that we will marry the most beautiful lady, have cute children, and live happily ever after.
We believe the stories we are told and start our rat-race for money and career without giving it a second thought. We choose the subjects that have the best demands in the market. We earn a degree and then search for a job that pays well.
