Be selfish

Be selfish 

What do I mean when I say so?
It had happened to everyone that someone calls you selfish for putting your self before them. If you've heard it don't worry most people call you selfish not because you are but because they are. Because they want to be above all, they do not realise that in fact the world doesn't revolve around them. 
Let me make myself clear I'm surely not saying do not think in anyone but yourself, what I 'm saying goes hand in hand with something that you usually hear in the airports. It says "Put the oxygen mask on yourself first, in order to help others". You need to know that there's nothing wrong with putting yourself first, actually it id what everyone should do. 
I've realise that people who first look after itself and then after others is 10 times more useful than people who is always worrying for pleasing everyone but itself. Believe me when I tell you that no matter how much you care about others, how much you help or worry about, it'll never be enough. You can never make everyone happy no matter how much you'd like to.
Nevertheless, what you can do is look after your happiness, mental, social and physical health, focus on what you like to do and what you don't. Love yourself and then share it with others. Help others to achieve their goals, push them to better stuff. 
Some one could differ and that's just fine, but I truly believe that it's way better to say no than say yes and not being able to keep your word. Learn to say no when you know you can't help other, and learn to do it when you say yes.
Also, learn to please yourself before pleasing others, do not make all your choices based on what others want, that would just lead you to be truly unhappy. If they truly love you, they want to see you happy.
Now that I'm pretty sure you know what I'm talking about. Be selfish, give yourself time when you need it. Do what's best for you. I couldn't be more true the quote "You won't be able to love anyone, if you do not love yourself first".

At the end of the day. How selfish can it be to be selfish in order to help others?

Eclipse

  Careful   Don't let what they want eclipse what you need, they can be very dreamy but they're not the sun, you are.  This blog begins with the word careful and a little quote I heard a long time ago. Allow me to explain myself, why careful? It's an advice to all those who just like me, whenever they love someone, they allow theirselves to sum up their whole life to the person you love.  I mean yeah, love is crucial in our lives but love does not resume to one person and one person only, believe me or not there's far beyond one important person in our lives, even when it looks like it plays the main role, we must be aware that the main role in the story is play by no one but us.  When you allow someone to eclipse yourself, you suddenly stop enjoying  life, why? because whenever they're not with you, you could feel like everything is useless, nothing but a lie playing with your head. You used to enjoy somethings before that someone came ...

Do not worry

 Do not worry I pretty much know that it's easier to say it rather than do it. The thing is that worry about something isn't that bad, on the other hand we make it bad. Here is the key, it's all about worrying without getting sick, as everything in life excess in any kind of way is never good. Worry it's okay, but let me tell you why. It's an stimulus, not as bad as you may think. It's what make us react, change and move on. Worry from the basic stuff like basic needs to life changes. In the best of the cases it took us away from our comfort zones.  But it can be kind of tricky because from the moment we disregard, it becomes that  kind of worry that can make anyone feel sick. Have you heard that most of the illnesses are caused by stress? Well it's true and now another question. What does worry becomes when you can't find a solution? If your answer was stress, you're right.  Whenever you can't solve your issues you start worrying and if they hav...

Changes

  Changes   Life keeps going, just like the world keeps moving, maybe you're feeling like you're having one of the best days of your life and suddenly you're a down dum in the dumps, or the other way round, when you feel like everything is lost, something finally feels right or end up being just the way you wanted to. Anyways, none of the situations I previously mention remains the same, at least not forever. Lots of people could claim that some feelings never die, that's true but unfortunately life isn't just about feeling, is about moving on.  I used to wish that my happy days last forever until I understood how impossible my wish was, no matter how hard I tried, my days could never be all rose colour, because my days not only depend on me but on so many external factors, impossible for me to control.  The bright side is that no matter how bad you're feeling, even if you feel like it's the end of the world, believe me, nothing las...
