Success vs. Success in Life

*Note* Don't hate me. This is an entirely subjective blog post/topic. This is an essay I wrote last week about what success in life means to me. If you completely disagree with me, I love you and your opinions and perspective and don't ever change. If you do agree with me, hello I love you and we are the same person. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this subject without like anybody hating me. Heh. 

Whilst success in certain areas, such as business ventures, is a very common want or goal, success in life is not an attainable achievement. In my opinion, success in life is more of an abstract, ultimate goal than something that can be done. You can be successful in life, but you can't exactly succeed in it. Life is not a game of who can be the richest or who can be the happiest. Life is simply life. Not to say that you can't be rich or happy; in fact, most people would say those are two very important things in life. And while these things may make you be considered successful, they will not help you to succeed in life.

However, in present-day society, it is important to succeed at something. Succeeding is necessary for your self-esteem and motivation. Once you take out the unrealistic want to succeed in life, succeeding at everyday activities becomes much simpler. But not all success shares the same connotation; you can succeed at failing. You can succeed at receiving a high-school diploma, but you can also succeed at being fired. You can succeed at driving your car safely, but you can also succeed at forgetting your wedding anniversary.

In conclusion, not all success is considered equal. Success in many activities is entirely attainable, but success in life is not. Certain types of success are important. People all over the world would benefit greatly choosing to succeed at what they do, rather than try in vain to succeed at life.  

"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen." 2 Peter 3:18

Cringe Attacks and Doctor Whooves

*cue nostalgic background music*

I took the time to reread all of my blog posts because I thought, "Why not? Let's see how you've grown over the past year or so." 

But that was a terrible idea because then I had to face.....................

A CRINGE ATTACK

If you haven't suffered from a Cringe Attack, then you are NOT HUMAN. You're probably like a pony or a Time Lord or something. Maybe both. Idk. I'd see a Doctor about that. 

A Cringe Attack is one of the worst possible feelings known to man. It is unavoidable, unless you're capable of making smart decisions 24/7. In which case, you might be Beyoncé and may be eligible for compensation. 

Cringe Attacks come out of literal nowhere. They form in a black hole at the edge of the universe and wait until you least expect it. And then BAM! Cringe Attack. 

There you are, aimlessly scrolling down your newsfeed... When suddenly, all you can think about is that time you mispronounced a word in front of your peers. Then it's all over, your day/week/month has been tainted by Cringe Essence. You will now hate yourself until you redeem yourself. But then you'll have another Cringe Attack and the process will repeat indefinitely. Soz. 

"Foreigners came cringing to me; as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me." 2 Samuel 22:45
