The very smart Albert Einstein is quoted as saying " Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Another very smart person is quoted as saying " if it makes you happy, it can't be that bad." Yes, that person is Sheryl Crow.
so who do i listen to when I want to eat some candy while trying to get in shape?! Something tells me these two would have drastically different answers. In the meantime , i'll eat the candy.
Everything in life is based on perception. You'll always be given different kinds of advice, different perceptions, different opinions of what is right or wrong for you. At the end of the day, your perception is the only one to go by. You may share parts of your life with your friends, lover, family- but only you know it all, and your feelings of it all. Everyone has their own gut to go by. The point is, two important people in your life can have drastically different perceptions of things, and their perceptions may differ from your own.
Take the advice, view the perception their way, then do what you feel is right. At the end of the day, you're the one living your life. Life it for yourself. Make yourself happy and don't give a shit if you're happiness isn't what someone else pictured for you.
