This is single-handedly the most important thing that any one of us could be looking for. Happiness needs to be the goal. Not money, not followers or that perfect job/house/life. Happiness. Your words are far more valuable than the view-count Alice, keep it coming. This is ultra-important information!
Great insights, Alice! Shifting from unmet expectations to understanding obstacles really hit home for me. It’s such a positive approach for both work and personal life. Letting go of rigid expectations definitely opens up more room for happiness. Looking forward to the next episode! 🙌😊
@@GetByMakeItWithAlice I can sense that you make an effort to be mindful and practice critical thinking - such crucial skills right now! And well, to be brutally honest, a concern I've had on my mind recently is the number of people who are withdrawing from society because they don't feel they're being rewarded or compensated fairly for the amount of effort they have to put in to make a living and find fulfillment. So they isolate to escape reality. I watched a video recently about this and I felt very seen as someone with a bachelor's degree who is struggling to find the desire and energy to try and make it in the system. That said, I find most meaning in just simple interactions with individual people. This has been my thought process so far. If that brings up anything for you, I'd be interested to hear!
@@lizardman6515 I FEEL FOR YOU and for others. It is extremely frustrating to try, and try, and try, and just not feel valued. You may have skills, and efforts, and a support system, but you also need luck. My philosophy is that you have to love your work, or what you do, day to day, despite the outcome...then you never withdraw. So, if you will put all this effort in, then you might as well do what you love.
@@GetByMakeItWithAlice this makes a LOT of sense - when you mentioned luck, it reminded me of something I heard. Someone was saying that if you just keep pursuing what's important to you, eventually the right factors will fall into place and things will start working out. It makes a lot of sense to focus on what's enjoyable - when life is already so crazy, may as well, right?? I really agree with that! Thank you for taking the time to respond ❤️ I really appreciate you!!

@@StanleyOrchard thanks Stanley . The only check boxes we should be hitting are : are we becoming better humans ?

Been loving each of your vids! I always listen when they come out. They really calm me down and get me out of my head a bit.
I am glad they help you. I try to see what is around me, observe, reflect, and post. What should I mention next?
