There is so much pressure every day to be someone else.
The person a family member expects, the spouse one of you really wanted, the parent your children seem to want even if that isn’t good for them – even someone in your workplace that you were not hired to be.
The games people can play are maddening.
And eventually our lives become like bumper cars banging around from expectation to expectation where we never quite feel right and where we can never win.
Refuse to play the games.
Do not try to win battles.
Win the war.
And the war should be always being the person you want to be.
When someone hits us, our natural tendency is to hit back, but consider letting them fight with themselves. Always stay on course.
At the end of the day we are happier when we avoid needless games and stay true to the person you want to be.
