Some of them went to celebrate vacation in Europe, some got promotions in jobs, some got their life partner and they got married. Some received an award in their field and some completed their master's degree. Now you start comparing yourself to them that where they are having fun in life, then on the other side you are those who are drinking beer sitting alone with their cat in their messy and dirty apartment. Now you start feeling very insecure and jealous. You even think that maybe you will die alone without doing something on which you can feel proud. But this is not true at all. If you are a musician, do not compare yourself to The Great Mozart. If you are a chef, do not compare yourself to Master Chef Gordon Ramsay. You have your unique skills. "You are no different than them". You are a wonderful person yourself. There is nobody else in the whole world like you. Accept yourself as you are. Improve your special skills. If you copy others, you will not be able to become like them, and neither will you be able to create a separate identity of your own. Instead of comparing yourself to others, compare yourself with what you were yesterday, only then you will be able to see and understand the difference. Every day, try to make yourself better than yesterday. Keep practising your skill and notice your progress carefully. You will really start feeling proud of yourself. Being insecure is not a good habit. Instead of browsing social media or removing the shortcomings yourself, invest your time and energy into something productive.

Do not ignore this thing, otherwise, your child will continue to deteriorate. He will never understand the difference between right and wrong. Spend time with your child. At that time just keep your full attention on it. Make him realize how much you love him and how important he is to you.

Tell the tooth - or at least don't bring
(Tell the truth and act like don't lie)
There was a time when Jordan used to live in a small apartment with his wife. There was an alcoholic in his neighbourhood. His name was Dennis. He was a tall man. He used to work as both a painter and an electrician. Except for his work hours, he used to be drunk all day. Many times Dennis used to drink 60 bottles of beer in a couple of days. It was also a surprise that despite so much, he did not know how he stood upright. He used to throw all his money in alcohol. Whenever his money and liquor ran out, he would knock on Jordan's door. Even if it is at 2 o'clock at night, he did not hesitate to knock on the door. Moreover, he would bring his posters, microwave, toaster together and try to sell Jordan. He was willing to sell anything to buy beer. Jordan also bought his goods many times. But Jordan's wife said that Dennis must stop doing all this. Jordan was very nervous. How can he explain to a drunken drunkard that all this can no longer go on?
Then Jordan decided to tell the truth. He told Dennis directly that he did not want to buy any goods. They explained to him that it was in his good interest not to give him any more money. Jordan clearly told reality. He did not play any game. For some time, Denise stood there quietly. He was trying to read Jordan's mind. He felt the truth and honesty in Jordan's words. Then he turned and left. Dennis never tried to sell anything to Jordan again. They had now become good neighbours of each other. Only one more problem arises from lies. Even if it is spoken to maintain peace or not to hurt someone's feelings, it is still a lie. Maybe today you can avoid a problem by telling a lie. But small lies start to become big lies. Speaking of lies, it becomes your habit and starts to spoil your thinking. But remembering never hides the truth and the day it comes out, it fills our life with more difficulties and sorrows. So it is best, to tell the truth directly.
Resume Date the Person You're Listening to Might No SomethingDate You Don't (Assume that the person you are listening to might know something that you don't)
Once in a therapy session, Jordan's patient said: "I hate my wife". After that, he became completely silent for a few seconds. Jordan was watching him intently. Then she said, "Wait, I said something. I speak very bitterly. I hate her sometimes, not always. I am irritated when she doesn't tell me what the problem is and her silence drives me crazy." Is. "My mother used to do the same all the time. She always complained about something or the other but instead of telling it, she just kept it in her mind. She always spoke bitter and my father had this habit Did not like. We were all upset with this habit ". "Now when I think of them, my wife is not as bad as my mother. There have been times when she has told me about her wishes. I feel bad when she hides something. Maybe I am the one I am overreacting. I don't want to be like my parents. And it has nothing to do with my wife. I have to tell her this ".
Jordan was listening to him the whole time. He did not want to say anything because his patient could feel that he was judging him or he might have been disappointed after listening to him and maybe he would have changed his mind. So they just kept listening to him. The patient himself began to realize that he was seeing his mother's image in his wife. After some time he again said, "Bank you, doctor, for this session. I am feeling really good now". Jordan nodded. He felt the right decision to be silent. Many people need someone who will listen to them. They feel very lonely.

He was small, like a little cat. He was cute and friendly too. Now the mother began to wonder why the dragon became so big. Billy says, "Maybe he wanted to make us feel his own." That's exactly what happens when we don't recognize our problem. Gradually it starts to get bigger and worse. If you do not understand the root of a problem, you will never be able to solve it. This is why we need to speak very thoughtfully. Do not say that everything is wrong but also do not say that nothing is wrong. Don't just increase or decrease, but just say what the problem is.
He believed that only children can become masters in anything by practising. Yes, there is no doubt that he falls several times while skateboarding and he suffers a lot of injuries but the children always got up and tried again. If they are banned from playing, they will never learn. Many parents are more protective of their children than necessary. They ban many things on their children. They always come in and solve the child's problem. The result is that the child becomes timid and weak. He becomes dependent on the help of his parents. He is unable to take the decision himself. Do not let this happen to your child. If your child has a quarrel with his best friend, listen to him carefully but do not interfere between them. You should not handle his problem, let him do it. Your child will know himself what he should do, especially when he knows that you are completely on his side. This leads to the development of confidence in it.
