Do you want a happy life? You must give up these things

We carry a lot of unnecessary "baggage" with us and create a lot of bad habits. We get confused by these habits and often need reminders to clear our minds. Here are some of the worst habits and behaviors you should give up.

Nothing is perfect and I shouldn't waste time waiting for perfect. The perfect life, the perfect partner, the perfect job and the perfect body do not exist. We can only strive to truly accept who we are, improving ourselves, along with aspects of our lives.

Don't spend your life seeing the glass as half empty. Negativity is a constant part of everyone's life. Don't actively inject more negativity into your life. Take the negative aspects of your life and see the potential for growth.

We are not guaranteed anything in life. A man can work towards a goal, and through no fault of his own, everything can fall apart. To be successful and happy, you must be flexible. Treat the future as it is, an unknown, but don't fill the unknown with your fears or negativity.

You are not stupid, worthless or ugly. You are who you are, but that's not all. Don't set yourself up to fail or punish yourself because of untrue opinions. You are perfect just the way you are, and that can be hard to understand. If you realize that there are aspects of yourself that you don't like, change them.

Every time, you do the best you can. After the fact, you may realize that you could have done more, but at the time, you were unaware of this. Do not blame yourself or others for life's failures. Accept what happened and learn from it.

The relationship ended for a reason, trust those reasons and move on. If you are too busy looking into the past, then the best thing that comes to you will escape you. It can be easy to look for a sense of closure after a relationship, but you have to realize that old relationships were a waste of time, if only we let them be.

If you can do one thing for yourself, then you should be the one to do it. You should try to keep growing and cultivating your resources. Others will leave you in the mud, if not one day, then another, so it's better to have the ability to do your own thing.
