Life is not easy. In fact, what you do, how you handle situations while your here says a lot. Are you going to work making someone else rich or are you going to work for yourself doing what you love, what makes you happy? Are you going to listen when someone tells you that you will never succeed? That is their fear, not yours. Believe in yourself. Listen to those who matter. Are you going to believe what a total stranger says about the only way to make money is by working for others? Everyone is here for a reason. Everyone is going thru different things. Anyone who says things that are negative needs to step back and think about their own life before criticizing others on how they live their life. If your not happy with the way your life is, DO NOT TAKE IT OUT ON ANYONE ELSE! No one deserves that!

I am quite happy at the moment, and I have to say that it feels as though everything is falling into place. I have just completed my degree and will be getting my results on Tuesday, and I have got a new job which I am happy with as well. I know that I have a lot of things to look forward to in my life, and that means that I am excited about my future. It would be a little easier if I had some more money, but I am certainly prepared to work for that, so that is absolutely fine in my opinion. We should always try to be happy with our life as this means that we will be able to enjoy ourselves a lot easier.

Life is not easy and more over to be happy in every situation. Life will be only happy when someone's every desire is fulfilled, I think no one is happy with its work because it is rare to find desired job. A person will only be happy if he knows to suit himself with every situation and everything.

No one is happy all the time. Everyone has good and bad days. There are people who are happy with what they do for work. I am happy writing and I am finding new ways that are fun to make money. I do not want to be rich. I also do not want to be broke and barely getting by paycheck to paycheck.

I am not very happy with my life now. People around me are very good. But it seems I am not lucky this year. I did not get my degree in time. So that I have to wait it unitl next year. In the next six month, I may not have income to support myself. I have got a job offer, but I have to get it after I have a degree.
Now I try to learn something new and meanful to make sure I can have many advantages in the future.

Have you thought about writing for other sites? There is so much you can do where you don't have to pay any money. Think of what you have and what makes you happy. Most of all, believe in you. You can be happy. Go for your degree when you can. In the mean time, focus on being happy and doing what you like. Do what brings you joy and happiness.

good day desertrose16,
with reference to your topic discussion, indeed, life is not that easy. as the many people are saying, they have its ups and downs. hence, it is not really correct to pass on to others why aren't you happy with your life.
and what you have discussed was not too far with what i am encountering, that for the past months, i am always faced with hardships, struggles and trials. though i faced these things, i am very thankful that God is always at my side. that though i may not understand why these things are happening, i believe, my life is in God's hand and thru the eyes of faith, i can clearly see the responses eventually. and although i am not employed at the moment, i believe God will grant me another job to land on and handle. aside from the online jobs and earnings that i am maintaining and having at the moment.

I have a bone spur and have to use crutches to get around. I went to a seminar a couple years ago because of my interest to work at home to make money. I was getting ssd, I knew I needed to more to survive. Life is tough, it is not meant to be a walk in the park. Think of what your good at and focus on that. I write for more sites than mylot. Writing has always been something I love. I do that and I have more going on. I do not want to be rich. All I want is to have enough money each month for food, rent, clothes, bills when I do reach my goal of getting the right rent to own house. At the seminar, one of the things the speaker said is that sales on the internet are going up.

I am happy with my life despite of all its imperfections. I am a working mom who is dreaming to be a stay at home mom, someday I will. I am working for someone else but I am working part time for my self and family. I sometimes battled with the time and wishing I have another 24 hours each day, but I never complain. Because I am happy with my life now and its the way I want it to be. Honestly, I am sick with colds right now but I am happy.

You can be a mom who stays home to take care of your kids and work at home. There are a lot of women who do. You have to think about what you want to do, what your strengths are and focus on those. When the time is right, you will be able to stay home, take care of your family and have income coming in, if you choose to work at home.

To be happy with your life is to be contented on what you have. Although we might be aiming for personal development and financial sustainability, we should see to it that every move we make won't be a reason for others to suffer.
Personally, I am happy with my life right now. I was given an opportunity to serve the people and at the same time to develop my self in terms of governance in the local level. I admit, it is really hard but to share my self with the community is one of my objectives in life.

It is good to have goals. At times, we are given the choice to do things that are hard. When your ready to share yourself with your community, you will, helping them and yourself.

I am happy with my life to a great extent. I am not doing what I WANT to be doing but what i need to be doing for my FAMILY. I took an early retirement from my job due to severe depression and panic attacks. I am now on SSD and have a small pension. I would like to be traveling and seeing some places i want to see but I have committed to helping my daughter raise her son with ODD. He is quite a handful.

Well, nothing is perfect. I am now working on my own, I am my own boss, I control my time, no one works for me either, LOL, and I think I am less stressed out compared to that time when I used to work for an organization. Now I am doing my own gig and I have lots of freedom and plenty of time to do what I want to do.
