“Beauty begins the moment you decide to be yourself”
(Coco Chanel)
“A sun cannot give its light without burning itself” we have often came across this sentence in our life at least once. What exactly would you call a person who isn’t investing in his/her own self? Who isn’t trying to become a better person? Who isn’t challenging his own self every day? Who isn’t competitive enough to compete with his older version? The question still remains the same i.e. “What kind of person he/she is?” Lots and lots of thoughts float in our minds whenever we think about investing in our self. Before going further, let’s just think about a small scale company who is new in business world. So it’s obvious that the company will prosper only when it establishes its name in business world and this could be done by working on smaller projects and when the company has mastered the art of handling small projects then obviously it can jump towards bigger projects. With the passage of time the company would prosper and would be giving projects instead of taking them
Now just consider the small scale company as a human being and projects could be the difficulties which one has to face in his everyday life. The person has to deal with his everyday difficulties in order to survive. If a person fails to do so then his survival comes to risk. If a person isn’t ready to face these difficulties then how can he deal with bigger problems? Everyone thinks that facing difficulties make us weak but the truth is they make us strong without even letting us know.
“Growth” is super important when we talk about human nature. We grow, we learn, we get hurt, we observe, we understand, we deal and most importantly we experience. If one has to experience any of these things then there’s nothing to worry about as it’s just a part of their growth. Not a single human being is perfect as everyone has their own flaws. Whenever something good happens because of our abilities then we, without wasting a single moment, own it. But the opposite happens when anything bad happens because of our flaws.
Our flaws are not our weakness, they can be our biggest strength only if we want them to be. Everything has a positive side, but we as human beings refuse to see those positive aspects. Our only concern is to see the negative of a situation and assume the worst of it. What good comes from imagining the worst of a situation? We need to train our minds to think the positive of a situation first and then the remaining thoughts can enter. Been surrounded in a negative environment and dealing with negative people will only lead us to think and act negatively.
“WE HAVE TO THINK ABOUT OUR OWN SELF BEFORE THINKING ABOUT OTHERS”
We need to clear our priorities. If we talk about present-day people then we will get to know that how messed up their priorities actually are. Our only and top priority should be our own self, our biggest investment should be no one else but our own self, we should be our own biggest project and last but most important thing is that our happiness should only depend on ourselves. There is no one who could make you happy like the way you can make yourself happy. Staying happy is the first rule to live a better life. So just be yourself, enjoy every bit of our life and invest in yourself daily because at the end it would be you who’ll be enjoying the outcomes.

It is necessary to be the optimist.
