Not Proud?
Wednesday, March 14th, 2007Are you not proud of being a couch potato? We sometimes think that some people look down on us because they thought that we couldn’t do any better than staying on the couch. The effect of this on us then is a low self-esteem which makes us stay more on the couch and hide from people. By doing this, we only show them that they won against us and we let them do it.
This will result to loving ourselves less. Which is really a poor thing for us. We shouldn’t be ashamed of being a couch potato. We should not let other people affect our being. If they criticize you of being a couch potato, you should show them wrong of their judgment on us. Low self-esteem will generally do us no good. If we have goals in life, it will hinder our success. We may think that we can’t make it because we’re just a couch potato. Of course you can! Being a couch potato doesn’t make you less of a person. We possess several advantages. We are more aware of the latest events by being on the couch; relaxation makes us healthy, with all the hustles in life, we really need to relax.
If you get affected by the criticisms that you receive from other people because you are a couch potato, it should be in a positive way. It should make you stronger as a person by not tolerating it to cause you lower self-esteem. Instead, think of the things that you have done and the advantages of being a couch potato. Make it as your motivation to do more useful things. Lastly, be proud. . . love yourself!
