50 Things You Need To Give Up Today

50 Things You Need To Give Up Today

1. Give up trying to be perfect. – The real world doesn’t reward perfectionists, it rewards people who get things done.   
2. Give up comparing yourself to others. – The only person you are competing against is yourself.
3. Give up dwelling on the past or worrying too much about the future. – Right now is the only moment guaranteed to you.  Right now is life.  Don’t miss it.
4. Give up complaining. – Do something about it.
5. Give up holding grudges. – Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
6. Give up waiting. – What we don’t start today won’t be finished by tomorrow.  Knowledge and intelligence are both useless without action.
7. Give up lying. – In the long-run the truth always reveals itself.  Either you own up to your actions or your actions will ultimately own you.
8. Give up trying to avoid mistakes. – The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake.
9. Give up saying, “I can’t.” – As Henry Ford put it, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you are right.”
10. Give up trying to be everything to everyone. – Making one person smile can change the world.  Maybe not the whole world, but their world.  Start small.  Start now.
11. Give up thinking you’re not ready. – Nobody ever feels 100% ready when an opportunity arises.  Because most great opportunities in life force us to grow beyond our comfort zones, which means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first.
12. Give up setting small goals for yourself. – Many people set small goals because they’re afraid to fail.  Ironically, setting these small goals is what makes them fail.
13. Give up trying to do everything by yourself. – You are the sum of the people you spend the most time with.  If you work together, you will be far more capable and powerful than you ever could have been alone.
14. Give up buying things you don’t need. – Manage your money wisely so your money does not manage you.  Do not spend to impress others.  Do not live life trying to fool yourself into thinking wealth is measured in material objects. 
15. Give up blaming others for your troubles. – The extent to which you can live your dream life depends on the extent to which you take responsibility for your life.  When you blame others for what you’re going through, you deny responsibility – you give others power over that part of your life.
16. Give up making mountains out of molehills. – One way to check if something is worth mulling over is to ask yourself this question: “Will this matter in one year’s time?  Three years?  Five years?  If not, then it’s not worth worrying about.
17. Give up trying to live up to the expectations of others. – Work on it for real and exceed your own expectations.  Everything else will fall into place.
18. Give up the ‘easy street’ mentality. – There is too much emphasis on finding a ‘quick fix’ in today’s society.  For example taking diet pills to lose weight instead of exercising and eating well.  No amount of magic fairy dust replaces diligent, focused, hard work.
19. Give up making promises you can’t keep. – Don’t over-promise.  Over-deliver on everything you do.
20. Give up letting your thoughts and feelings bottle up inside. – People are not mind readers.  They will never know how you feel unless you tell them.
21. Give up beating around the bush. – Say what you mean and mean what you say.  Communicate effectively.
22. Give up avoiding change. – However good or bad a situation is now, it will change.  That’s the one thing you can count on.  So embrace change and realize that change happens for a reason.  It won’t always be easy or obvious at first, but in the end it will be worth it.
23. Give up your sense of entitlement. – Nobody is entitled to anything in this world.  We are all equal.  We breathe the same air.  We get what we give.  We get what we earn.
24. Give up waiting until the last minute. – Those who fail to plan, plan to fail.
25. Give up being dramatic. – Stay out of other people’s drama and don’t needlessly create your own.
26. Give up being anti-athletic. – Get your body moving!  Simply take a long, relaxing walk or commit 30 minutes to an at-home exercise program like the P90X workout.
27. Give up junk food. – You are what you eat.
28. Give up eating as a means of entertainment. – Don’t eat when you’re bored.  Eat when you’re hungry.
29. Give up foolish habits that you know are foolish. – Don’t text and drive.  Don’t drink and drive.  Don’t smoke.  Etc.
30. Give up relationships with people who bring you down. – Saying “no” to right people gives you the time and resources required to say “yes” to right opportunities.  Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven and likeminded.
31. Give up being shy. – Network with people.  Meet new people.  Ask questions.  Introduce yourself.
32. Give up worrying about what others think of you. – Unless you’re trying to make a great first impression (job interview, first date, etc.), don’t let the opinions of others stand in your way.  What they think and say about you isn’t important.  What is important is how you feel about yourself.
33. Give up trying to control everything. – Life is an unpredictable phenomenon.  No matter how good or bad things seem right now, we can never be 100% certain what will happen next.  So do you best with what’s in front of you and leave the rest to the powers above you.
34. Give up doing the same thing over and over again. – In order to grow, you must expand your horizons and break free of your comfort zone.  If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting.
35. Give up following the path of least resistance. – Life is not easy, especially when you plan on achieving something worthwhile.  Don’t find the easy way out.  Do something extraordinary.
36. Give up persistent multi-tasking. – Do one thing at a time and do it right.
37. Give up thinking others are luckier than you. – The harder you work, the luckier you will become.
38. Give up filling every waking moment with commitments and activities. – It’s okay to be alone.  It’s okay to do nothing sometimes.  Think.  Relax. Breathe.  Be.
39. Give up making emotional decisions. – Don’t let your emotions trump your intelligence.  Slow down and think things through before you make any life-changing decisions.
40. Give up doing the wrong things just because you can get away with it. – Just because you can get away with something doesn’t mean you should do it.  Think bigger.  Keep the end in mind.  Do what you know in your heart is right.
41. Give up focusing on what you don’t want to happen. – Focus on what you do want to happen.  Positive thinking is at the forefront of every great success story.  If you awake every morning with the thought that something wonderful will happen in your life today, and you pay close attention, you’ll often find that you’re right.
42. Give up taking yourself so seriously. – Few others do anyway.  So enjoy yourself and have a little fun while you can.
43. Give up spending your life working in a career field you’re not passionate about. – Life is too short for such nonsense.  The right career choice is based on one key point: Finding hard work you love doing.  So if you catch yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop.  You’re on to something big.  Because hard work ain’t hard when you concentrate on your passions.
44. Give up thinking about the things you don’t have. – Appreciate everything you do have.  Many people aren’t so lucky.
45. Give up doubting others. – People who are determined do remarkable things.  Remember, the one who says it can’t be done should never interrupt the one doing it.
46. Give up fussing with every beauty product on the market. – Good looks attracts the eyes.  Personality attracts the heart.  Be proud to be you.  That’s when you’re beautiful.
47. Give up trying to fit in. – Don’t mold yourself into someone you’re not.  Be yourself.  Oftentimes, the only reason they want you to fit in is that once you do they can ignore you and go about their business.
48. Give up trying to be different for the sake of being different.– Nonconformity for the sake of nonconformity is conformity.  When people try too hard to be different, they usually end up being just like everyone else who is trying to be different.  Once again, be yourself.
49. Give up trying to avoid risk. – There’s no such thing as ‘risk free.’  Everything you do or don’t do has an inherent risk.
50. Give up putting your own needs on the back burner. – Yes, help others, but help yourself too.  If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do something that matters to you, that moment is now.

And remember, mistakes make us human, failures help us grow, hope keeps us going and love is the reason we’re alive.  So keep learning, loving and living.  Never give up on yourself.

不同的体验

我啊 可以说忙 可以说懒 也可以说烂～哈哈
好几个月了 都没po上什么 但 我工作了！！哈哈 不是什么值得骄傲的工作啦
但也可以赚点零用钱 也是件好事

工作了 认识到一班不同国籍的朋友 有孟加拉 巴黎 葡萄牙 英国 Russia 日本 香港
认识他们了 就觉得有些人啊 世界都没看完 就不断自以为是 以为自己什么都懂 什么都会
当你知道了 世界有多大 你就会知道 你懂的东西 原来是就像细菌酱渺小～～

生日快乐 老豆

我的爸爸 我的老豆 今天63岁生日 ～～也！！生日快乐噢 老豆～
小时候的我常被挨打 因为爱欺负弟弟 哈哈 常觉得在家没人爱  
老豆在我们小时候的脾气很暴躁 打得我屁滚尿流 手里拿的是什么 那就是打我们 （我最多）

我挨过： 扫把，榴莲 （对！榴莲！你没看错） 水罐 当然藤条最多咯

但被挨打过后 半夜爸爸就会拿zambuk来帮我疗伤 涂在鞭打的手手脚脚 但小时候的我哪知道这是爸妈的爱？ 只了解说他们就是爱打我而已

叛逆时期 就爱顶嘴 也知道长大了 就算他们打我 我也站着给他们打 皮硬了嘛 

虽然少了挨打 但多了顶嘴还有反驳 但爸爸也不在本地工作所以也没什么有交流 
只知道每个月爸爸一定会寄零用钱给我和弟弟 其他的也没怎么关心
直到我开始工作了 可能也长大了 就会开始留意家人的状况 开始觉得爸爸突然间苍老了 白发也多了 就会开始去关心爸爸 这时候的爸爸脾气也收势了很多 不再是个暴躁的爸爸 而是个温柔的爸爸
爸爸也许是个老头脑 但我们所做的每一件事 他都无限量的支持我们 一直要我们把钱收下节省 
不需要寄钱给他 他啊 常说他是个简单的人 说我们有他的心 他就很开心了 
老人家常说 当你做人家的父母 你就会知道我们的感受了 
但我想 知恩图报 应该是每个孩子必须知道的常识吧 


要珍惜当你还拥有 与其过后再来后悔 会有用吗？


老豆 生日快乐噢～！！希望你健健康康 开开心心 这是我今年最大的心愿   <3

奇怪

常常会听到人家埋怨这 埋怨那 但 转个头 不到几秒 就变了另个样 

就好象 常听到 朋友埋怨男友不体贴 爱妒忌 发脾气 要我们给她意见

但给了她意见 一转眼 等一下后 就看到他们恩恩爱爱的照片 我爱你你爱我的post在面子书

就觉得奇怪 为什么这里问我 那里的动作就好象根本不需要 多此一举来问我意见

我向来说话 直来直往 你问我 该怎样 我就直接说出我的意见 你问我该不该离开当你男友偷偷背板你 我当然说你该离开 所谓 一次不忠百次不容 但下一秒就看到你们 你你我我 

哈 下次不要问我啦 浪费我的担心还有力气 

我是个很好的朋友 但别滥用
