You Don’t Need Goals to be Happy
You just need to enjoy life.
In a society that over glorifies goals and life purposes, sometimes we forget that at the end of it all, what we are seeking is happiness. Our end goal is to enjoy life.
Even in my articles, I often emphasize the importance of having a purpose and goals. And I’m not saying that’s not important; instead, I want to share another angle of seeking happiness.

Don’t compare yourself with others
In my previous article, I’ve written why we shouldn’t compare ourselves to other people. The main reason is that it will not be an apple to apple comparison when you compare yourself. Your privilege, experiences, and effort can’t be compared objectively.
When someone says something is “hard,” do they tell you how much effort they put in? Do you know how serious they were when they were trying to do it? “Hard” for them may not be hard for you because the effort is subjective, and the same goes with experiences and privileges.
