Keeping Everyone Happy

Well, we surely can't please everyone as different people have different tastes and interests. If I were to befriend someone who is familiar with a particular interest, we would be shutting our doors to other who find that particular interest as something boring or not really fascinating.

Rick Nelson once sung, "You can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself."

we have our own shares of moods and short comings.... it is really imposible to be just that simple everyday. it is also hard to sacrifice something just to make other people happy. i am a singer and whether i like it or not during work i need to make my listeners happy. i have to show them a good time in everyway i can.... then you will still hear criticism, well it is okay to receive criticism as long as you say it it the right manner. so it is really imposible to be just there to make people happy all the time.

MY INTRODUCTION ~ Happy is related to contentment of one person which may differs from an individual to another. Look at our fingers, they never at the exact same length even we give them the same name. Similarly to happy and the degree of happiness. Happy live in dependent state, where it always needs reason to create cause for it to be happened. HAPPY CONTRIBUTION ~ Contributing happy with its happiness value by candor sharing among individuals totally depends on the objectives for sharing as well as for what motive we want it to be shared. Does it able to generate an exponential growth of happiness? or prone to undesirable expectations?. Meaning that, possibility and chances to equalized happy and the happiness to all people is very slim. You know why?. Because there is a great factor that control happy, which is satisfaction. The flowchart goes like this; satisfaction - happiness - pleasure - gratification.

Why should you have to keep everyone happy? Isn't happiness everyone's personal responsibility? If you're reading the paper and someone is unhappy that you didn't cook breakfast instead, that person needs to get busy! I always try to find a way not to disfavor someone but sometimes it can't be helped. Then I'm honest with them and tell them I can't give you the time today (or whatever it is they want) because my son needs this or I have something important to do. Then I assure them we will make up for it later.

IMHO nih, just respect your life. Because with respect our life we can respect others easily. Sometimes it is hard to say goodbye. But, you know that that's just for a song. Just be honest to yourself and people around you. Goosshh praba, like Tibetian said.

My husband and I have solved this problem by NOT playing favourites. Our family is represented by four different religious. Two very difference ones on his side, and two very different from those two, on my side. Recently I was in a battle with a member of my side of the family as to why I would not do something differently in the presence of the ones with the more conservative beliefs. I told her that it was because my hsuband and I made an agreement that we would not play favourites. Were I to change for them, I'd have to change for the other two. Same thing in a situation with my last name. I took my mother's maiden name because I did not want my father's nor my husband's name, or a combination of both, because FOR ME that would present being handed over. Before marriage I sometimes used Dad's and Mom's hyphenated. However, after marriage I realized that it would not be fair if i catered to one mail-dominated belief, while refusing another, AND stating that I did not believe in either. Therefore I took a name that reflected neither, and stuck with it. I still use my father's name as my middle name, because he is as much a part of who I am as my mother. I chose her name as the more dominant one to use because of it's ethnic background (I'm a Canadian citizen and everyone knows it, but had I no Danish name no one would know of my Danish heritage unless I continuously brought it up), and because by using my mother's maiden name, I am not chosing favourites over my father (who feels deeply about the family name tradition) or my husband (who could give a crap, and who had ex-wives take his name upon marriage when he would have prefered they kept their own because like me, he does not believe in that tradition). In conclusion, don't try so hard to please everyone, just make sure you please yourself. The others can go climb a tree. As for picking a partner, make sure to find one whose beliefs align with your own.

All kind of relationships are all about give and take. If someone has to do all the giving... it won't work. They say that time is money. So I did base all my relationships in giving my time to people with money. However... that was not good enough. Because people with money are greedy and expect to get your time for free. You can only sacrifice your own interests for so long. Then you become upset when you discover that your sacrifices are not appreciated. These days I don't mix friendship with business. If someone want a chat and a drink... it is friendship. If the same person want help... it is business... and he has to pay for my help. Too many people confuse friendship with getting free help.

you can't please eveybody, in fact nobody can do that it's just how human beings are why would you want to, anyway? if they love you or claim as your friends, they should be able to understand your position

i didnt get whether u are talking about members of family or friends etc, if it is about family members, there should be proper co-operation between each one and there should be a proper understanding as what is the duty of each one in the family. If we co-operate each other happiness can be attained and there will be peace in the family.

It happens If you want to be friends of two enemies.Otherwise i think you can keep happy anyone .Moreover positive attitude help you a lot here

Hi sukumar! It is impossible and i agree with you! you can never please everybody as they used to say and I believe that! No matter how I tried to please someone, there will always be another one who will be displeased. It is exhausting and frustrating if we just keep on thinking of other people most of the time. So what i do is just try to be fair in everything and if someone gets disappointed or displeased with me because I didn't please him/her that well, then that is his/her problem and not mine. Take care and have a great day! lovelots..faith

Happiness could not be kept as it is based on the happenings around us. There are times we could be happy but surely there are times we also has to suffer sorrows. We can't also please everyone and can't make all of them happy either. Neither are the material things would make each one perfectly happy because while these things could give happiness those will also be some things that could cause sadness in the midst of abundance. But for me there is one thing that I could always keep in my heart. It is joy! The joy that I have Jesus, my Lord and my Savior who promised to never forsake me nor leave thee. I am secured in His loving arms and that is enough for me to be joyful always.

ah, yes, it's way difficult to satisfy all, but i won't use the word sacrifice... it's sound like 'victim by design' rather 'unfortunate victim'. well, one human have many interest or even many goals. so make a lot diffrent point of views to just a single view is a difficult task. only a few good leader with nice charm can make it happen.

I'm gonna agree with you on this. there is absolutely no way you can make everybody happy. every person has a quirk different from anybody else. this is basically what keeps us from making everybody happy. I think what's more important is you make yourself happy first. that way you'll be able to spread the happiness around you. you cannot share something that you dont have. we may not have the capability to make everybody happy but at least you've made some people happy. that's great in itself. =D

yes,we can keep every one happy,try avoid their sadness from their mind
