Why is wrong to be happy with small things?



Do you know the statement “be happy with small things if you can’t get big things”? Someone who was not ambitious made this like comfort for all frustrations and unfilled wishes.
The modest person will say that you need to be happy:
Because you are alive.
Because you have no health problems.
Because you have a meal and a warm shelter.
I agree with this because everyone starts with a basic thing, and we should appreciate what we have. Just appreciation doesn’t mean that you don’t have to go further. If that satisfaction with small things stop you from progress, this statement is wrong and your obstacle to success.
If you live in your safe cage and never travel out of your city you are happy but you will always wonder: “What if?”
Imagine that you changed your life, but this means a risk, step forward from your comfort zone, and maybe a danger?
If you are not ambitious and aware of the risk, you will stay safe, but your full potential will be undefined.
Once my father’s friend said to my father: “Your daughter is smart, why she should not reach her full potential?”
What will make you believe that small things are not good enough for you?
Your competition lives better than you because they had guts.
You refuse to see the bad side of your comfort zone and live in the illusion.
You are afraid that of other’s disapproval.
You think people will label you like a pretentious person who is spoiled.
If you ask successful people about their story, it will not be a beautiful fairytale. It will be a rough story about tears, anger, frustrations, and much wasted time. The end of this story will be “therefore I am here now, it was worthy.”
Do you think you could live better or you enjoy yourself in your comfort zone?

Social media: how to react to negative comments?

The virtual world became a platform where people expose their frustrations. If you post something positive, you will not get reaction. Ignorance is mostly present when you express your happiness. If you post something that irritates people, you will get negative reactions. Many young users use internet to write negative comments, put dislikes and troll others. We are witnesses to young generation who is angry, passive and without a purpose. You Tube opted out dislikes for public. You can see in your private statistic a number of dislikes.  Some people have a bad humor and don't have a clue how their reaction can hurt others. You will tell me this is a freedom of speech and free choice, but also as an owner of my profiles in social media I have right to restrict negative comments. I am against censoring and dictatorship and every critic is welcome, but I don't tolerate rude and abusive behavior. Besides, if someone leave a negative, rude comment, that gives an ugly example to ot
