Sometimes, if we want to be happy in life, there are some “hard pills” that we need to swallow. Redditors are spilling the hard pills to swallow that they started doing that actually makes their lives happier.
- "There is no guarantee you will end up meeting a great partner. You need to make your life as awesome as you can without that. It's seriously luck and timing, and out of your control."
- "You don't need to get into this endless mental loop of trying to figure out why someone 'did that.'"
- "Going no contact with exes is the healthiest, best way to break up."
- "Not everyone who should apologize will apologize, and that shouldn’t prevent you from healing."
- "I’m always going to look like me. I will never be able to change any of the physical attributes of myself that I don’t like, besides my fitness. So I needed to stop feeling insecure about those things and just embrace that this is the only face/body I’m ever going to have."
- "That not all friends are meant to be lifelong friends. It’s ok to lose touch. People come and go. Some people are in your life for a season. When I embraced this, I stopped taking it so personally when I grew apart from someone."
- "Love isn’t enough to make a relationship work."
- "It sounds bleak, but once I realized how little everyone actually cares about me, I was able to stop putting so much pressure on myself."
- "Consistency over quickness. There’s very rarely a quick fix for problems (real or perceived) in your life that will fix it forever. Building better habits can be boring (and difficult), but the payoff is usually better and more permanent."
