Many of us want to become
successful.. We want to make better for ourselves and make more money.. BUT are we doing these things to please
ourselves OR to please and keep up with everyone around us? Admiration is
always great.. And you should look at examples of the people you admire to
become, HOWEVER
it seems like at times like more and more people are doing things just to “fit-in” be compared to or keep up with what everyone
else is doing or have around them.
To me it seems as if the our generation, along with the
influences of “SOCIAL” Media has made people try
to stunt,
show off or flex as
if they have it all together.. To keep up with everyone else… even when they don’t.
I see it every day; people doing things just to seem as if their life is “LIT”, spending a lot of money on shoes and clothes, taking pics
in clubs or fancy places or just TRYING TO LIVE A WINE LIFESTYLE ON A FOUR-LOCO
BUDGET!.. Just to compete or live
up to the next person that’s around them. What I’ve noticed and what I know for
sure is that… just because a person looks as if they have it all together… in A
LOT of cases they don’t “HAVE IT”
altogether. Social media is the main cause of this problem.. But I never go off
of a IG post or Snap video.. ‘Because “People
aren’t who they “Post” to be’.
There was a time years ago….where I felt I had to brag or
try to buy or have expensive things just to seem like I had it…even when I knew
I didn’t. I learned a valuable lesson from that.. and that was ‘No one truly cares’ at the end of the
day.. And honestly were all just out
here tryna make it on the same road. A lot of people try to keep up with
people just to fit in or seem cool…trying to stunt for the next person. If you
are a person who isn’t at the place where you see other people are… ATLEAST APPRECIATE where
you are and EMBRACE WHERE YOURE GOING. I realized early on
why try to do things to keep up with the next person focusing on them when I can
use that energy to focus on myself and what I want to do.
If I’m supposed to have money.. I’ll have it when its time. A fancy car…
it will come when it needs to. There is NO NEED for you to over stretch yourself
to something to prove to people you have it.. they’ll either care or they won’t.....
