Who you’re with, lets you know who you are.

The very things in life which are very obvious are the ones that we neglect the most. It’s the same as you will find the thing you’re looking for, in the place where you least wish to look.

It’s very interesting how people are the way that they are. I mean just by observing so many of them, it’s very obvious that they’re not happy. Then we wonder why the hell are they not doing anything about their situation. It’s very often said that you don’t get success by staying in your comfort zone, well you don’t get happiness that way either. You have to work hard for it, often do the stuff that’s scary and hard, but necessary.

Have you ever wondered how much time you’ve wasted spending it with the people you hate or don’t really care about. How many times you’ve let your energy be drained by someone who don’t even matter to you and when you look back, you know you were stupid, but you may be doing the same thing right now. Everyone is a bit of a people pleaser, including me. We want to be nice to others, not just because we are good people, but because we want to show that we are good people. In that attempt, we at times lose touch with ourselves, and that generally happens when we frequently do things, we wish we hadn't done.

Many people I know, would be friends with people they don’t actually like, then they would gossip about them, then they would justify their situation. I mean, why on earth would you talk to them in the first place. Believe it or not, people are assholes a lot of the times, they’ll be selfish, and they will look out for what is convenient for them. But that is where you should know whose worth investing time in, who’s actually happy for you and who just wants you to adjust according to their convenience. After all, your true friends and people you care about will make you feel better about yourself, not in a pleasing way, but in an empowering way, even if that means that they’ve to tell you some hard truths. But that will always be in the best interest of you, not them.

If you tell a lion that it is a cat many times, there’ll be a point where he actually starts believing it. You may be a very happy and cheerful person, but what if someone tells you that you being happy make others feel miserable. You may be a very loving and giving person, but what if someone makes you doubt yourself for it. You may have the potential to be on top of the world, but who you’re with can make you feel like you’re not even worth to be around the world. So, choose wisely who you’re with, because they will let you know who you are.
