CRITIC'S REVIEW
I think most of us here are afraid of being criticized. I mean, who wouldn't be? The last thing anybody here wants is to hear people commenting they don't like the things you've done or said or worse, you. Sad to say, i've always lived my life in fear. Afraid of being criticized, afraid of disappointing people... And i think it's because of this very fact that i have made a lot of mistakes in my life.
This is not according to some scientist; this is just based on my own experiences. the more you live in fear the more you are capable or prone to doing that thing that you fear. it's psychological. By being afraid, you are actually telling your body to stop trying and thus...failing.
i've always had doubts whether or not i could be this or that. never really believed i my own skills... i never really thought I was good enough. i'm a bit of a pessimistic. there really are times when i say to myself that i can't do this anymore. there are times when all i can think about is giving up. But then when something good happens, i say to myself, "You're not that bad..."
That's when i realized that right from the start giving up is/was never am option. Especially if you know, deep down, that you can do it. That a few wrong turns doesn't necessarily mean that you're lost. Besides, not all wrong turns are bad. some are good; you just have to distinguish which is which.
But who am i to judge you or the situation you're in. For me, the only reasons to quit that i think are acceptable are 1) I can't see myself doing this for the rest fo my life and 2) some other personal reasonslike family problems and such.
Though we are still young, we still have to think of the future. Sometimes, it's not just about today or living one day at a time. Yes, we don't know what will happen to the future the more we have to get ready for it. Mistakes will happen; some we can take some we can't. however, we can't just keep making mistakes saying that we'll learn from them anyway. If you keep making mistakes then clearly you haven't learned anything at all. if you can say that you have prepared and yet something unfortunate happens then it's one of those ineveitable mistakes; one that we can accept, one that should definitely not be repeated and one that we should learn from.
Regretting is never helpful... it will only lead to more hesistation and more doubts. Uncertainties are things that we just can't afford especially now. We've made it this far. If you still think that you don't have what it takes of that you don't see this in your future then this may be the perfect time to make up your mind. Once you do, i just hope that it'll be the last time that you do. You will get nowhere if you keep going back to the beginning.
And sometimes, you really shoudn't take criticisms to heart, especially if you're too proud of yourself. We all know that sometimes it doesn't really matter what other people say. Remember that there are those people who say things to make themselves feel important. if you already feel like you haven't done your best and then you listen to what other people say, it'll only put you down more. however , not all critics are made to put people down... there are those who only wish to improve your skills.
So i guess what i'm trying to say is that we should move on in a constant pace. Looking back from time to time to see what you have accomplished and not what you have not. Being proud of yourself is not a sin and so is rewarding yourself. if people don't appreciate the things you've done, at least show yourself that you do. remind yourself that not everybody shares the same tastes and that not everyone agrees to everything every time....
