Life is not always easy and each of us is dealing with difficult moments. However, part of the misfortune is not due to external factors, but from how we treat ourselves and our needs.

One of the key factors that takes away the joy of life is constant undermining your own value. An internal critic who suggests: “You are not enough” can effectively take away confidence and destroy even the best moments. Society, school or media often strengthen the fear of evaluation. Effect? Instead of enjoying our achievements, many of us compare themselves to others and live in the feeling that they do not grow up to other people’s standards. This is a simple recipe for frustration and dissatisfaction with your own life.
The second habit is to put others always above yourself. Helping is important and builds bonds, but if it becomes a daily duty and leads to neglect of your own needs – it quickly leads to burnout. Oprah Winfrey aptly put it with the words: “Don’t live to satisfy other people”. In practice, this means that you do not have to save everyone around or meet the expectations of the whole world. If your life revolves only around someone else’s needs, your own happiness will always be accumulated for later, and this is a straight path to a sense of emptiness.
