Looking good on social media is not equal to having good life and functional organs. People are battling life issues and health challenges that you have no idea about.
Every human you see on the face of the earth have one challenge or the other no matter how decorously happy, great, unbothered and glittered they look.
Alot of young people today lost hope in their dreams, goals and visions because of what others post on social media. And because of how fast they see their mates have gone not knowing that everyone have their unique destinies and timeframe in life.
It is a known part that people have their dark and grey sides but always choose what to feed you with on social media.
They will most atimes prefer to post and upload the positive and smooth side of their lives and stories while looking as if their lives are already figure out when is not.
We’ve seen cases where young people engaged themselves social vices like Yahoo yahoo, fraud, scam, rituals, outrageous fake life and more just to feel among and Display themselves on social media for approval, for followership, likes and comments.
So many young people have began desperate beyond imaginations because of what they follow on social media.
As a young person on social media and in day to day interactions with others; you need to know that your life, destiny and battles are personal and cannot be compare to another human who doesn’t share same container that house your soul in.
Dear youngsters, life is more and deeper than mere pictures and social media present. Alot of things go up side down beyond what you see.
Some people that you idolised and secretly wants your life to be like theirs maybe passing through horrible life’s battle that you yourself cannot handled if the toss is to be diced the other side.
As human you need to be self motivated and strive to be better but never be envious of people who have gone ahead of you. We are all different with different faces, different journeys and destinations.
Alot of young people today slide themselves into depressions because of what and where they friends post on social media. They feel they are left behind and there is no hope for them. They feel their lives are worthless and the only thing to do is to beat themselves with the source of them being unfortunate and unlucky.
Some would go to the entend of blaming everything in their lives as a cost of their delay or misfortune. They blame their parents, their background, their village people and everything blamiable without working on their mindsets and perceptions about life.
Once your mindset is full of negativity, impossibility, toxic, envy, strife and unhealthy competitions your entire life will keep producing those things always.
Yes, the mind is the engine room for every thought and our thoughts and drives manifest who we are and who we are going to be. If you have the beliefs that your life is a failure and nothing good will come out of it. This is exactly what it will manifest. If you believe that your friends and all your social media people are better than you and your life is a misery surely that is what your life will manifest.
Dear young person, work on your mind, be mindful of the kind of people you follow on social media and their drives. Check whether your mind is already filled with envy and bitterness towards other people success because one of the steps of moving forward is to have a healthy mindset and well spell out goals.
To start the journey to greatness is to have a mentor, get good books, be determined to succeed and have an independent mind that is not dependent on social media hypes and successes.
Anyone who wants to rewrite his or her story must have:
Decision
Refined mindset
Determinations
Doggedness and consistency.
So get up, stop comparison and start reading good books,b be a great mentor and change your story.
