I guess we all care about wrong things sometimes. Worry about something we can't change, and avoid doing things we should do. Why can it be so hard to concentrate on the important things? Why isn't it possible to be happy all the time? What is a good life?
These are a few questions I was thinking about while reading Mark Manson's book "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck."
Reading the book really made me think about many things. Nothing really new, still things you don't think about every day.
We shouldn't care about wrong things.
A good life is more than watching what someone else is doing and dreaming about success.
Real life is not on Instagram. Real life is something, that challenges you. It's not only highlights.
While doing the right decisions, you don't always feel good. We bought an old house over ten years ago and started renovating it. There was a lot of work to do and we were running out of money many times. Still we carried on renovating, doing the things that we could. It's much easier to pay someone else to do the work instead of doing it yourself. Still it's much more rewarding to do it yourself and see the result.
Results come from hard work.
Also it's not possible to always feel good.
Why should we even try, when it's not possible?
Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrating it for everything that it is. - Mandy Hale
