Why there are very few people can live an ideal life?
Why there are very few people can live an ideal life?
Because they doesn’t live for themselves.
As an example from my friend,she resigned her work before the Spring Festival and found a prefer one.She had some free time for taking a rest and planing her life. However,she said that she felt boring and disturbed during that time, all the people went to work but she had nothing to do.She hoped to go for work quickly.
What one people feel in his non-working time reflect that if he live a life for himself. If the people doesn’t live for himself,he will feel empty and boring when he was pulled away from usual work life.Once this happens,he will also find the direction and target of life are lost. In fact,he never has.It is the impetuous and fast era that people can’t stop and spend some time thinking their life and goals,they always stuffed their life with work which society has distributed for them impatiently.
There are very few people can live an ideal life,they always live a life in others’ life plan. When they born,they begin to accept test-oriented education and focus on a specific target for being admitted to key class in the key school and becoming a top student in key class.After graduation,they can’t wait to throw themselves into job hunting army for an tolerable work.Why do the divergent people can reach an amazing agreement on these things?
Because life is precious.
Life is only once,we aren’t able to turn round and go again. It is like an investment activity with opportunity cost and sunk cost.Therefore, the choices people make in their life become vital.Not only are people afraid to bear great pain,but they are scared about others’ estimate and sarcasm if they fail.Just because of this,most people living a life as most people,for reducing guilt,pain,blame after defeat.
Therefore,people lose themselves and aren’t able to live an ideal life they want.
