I feel I haven't accomplished anything in my life...?
I need help! I'm 23. Recently I've been down because I haven't really accomplished anything in my life. I'm in school but I feel ill never finish! I'm unemployed because I lost my job after I yelled at my former employer. My cousin who I grew up with have been hanging out recently and about a year ago we talked about opening a business together. We both wanted to open a hookah lounge and I gave him a few ideas and recently he partnered up with my cousins fiance and opened the same business with him instead of me. I feel betrayed. I tried to talk to him about it but he said I didn't have enough funds to open up the business with him. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and I had to work hard for everything taking care of my family and my disabled father. I was never able to save money for myself because I'm too busy carrying the burden of my families financial issues on my shoulders.I don't know what career to pursue anymore. Anyone going through the same thing? Any advice?
I feel like I've never really accomplished anything?
I used to feel EXACTLY like that! But this is how you can fix it: 1) Start being more outgoing. I started to invite my friends places instead of waiting for them to invite me. That's actually how I got my boyfriend, by being more outgoing. I'm the one who asked him out(: 2) Don't think of yourself in a negative way. And if there is something you can't get over, then fix it. I thought I was fat. I wasn't fat, I just hadn't lost a bit of baby weight yet. All I did was start drinking more water. It helped me be more confident. 3) Start doing something different. If you're a girl, start straightening your hair or maybe try makeup every once in awhile. If you're a guy, wear a new pair of jeans or start styling your hair different. 4) Join something outside of school. If you're not sporty, join a book club, or a nature club. You could also try horseback riding in a class, but that can get pretty pricey. You could also try joining a Boys and Girls Club, but not to be mean, it seems those are pretty gross. 5) Try to be more engaged in school functions and maybe start a club. My school has yearbook club and it has inside clubs that aren't organized by the school but everyone knows about. Like The Notes Club is one at my school. They go around school with typed inspirational letters and stick them in people's lockers. Everyone looks forward to getting one, because we're all sincere in The Notes and we do our research. Maybe you can get some of your friends to try something like that. 6) Be Yourself! I know it's overused and cliche, but you really need to be. It helps you become more likable and get more friends. Then you can do more things! 7) Volunteer. Go to the nursing home and read to old people. Or just go and talk to them. They like that. Maybe go to the park and just pick up some trash. ~ I Hope I Helped! I mean, I literally had the same problem as you but I just did exactly what I said up there and it made me feel so much better about myself.(: --Addie<3
Why do I feel like I can never get anything accomplished? I do a fair amount over the long run, but I still am left defeated after most endeavor.
hiee,The point that urged me to answer this question is I did feel the same before. Yes I did not just me a lot people who aren’t recognized as so called ‘toppers’. The thing is the human mind had and is developing, learning things from the society. So what ever we do we compare ourselves with others. It’s human nature. His mind has grown in such a manner. When we make things, it’s good we have done something. But what matters more is when we did it. It doesn’t make any sense when we get ready for the exam when it is already done. So, when we did complete the job also matters. The reason for your feeling that you are remained defeated is that you might not have completed it in the time you are supposed. Effort to complete the work is not just enough.Effort to get the job done in time also matters, a lot in particular instances.I shall give a small instance. You might be Knowing a space probe named VOYAGER,(don’t worry if you don’t) is launched in 1977 september 5. There would be hell of work to do to start a mission and get it to the reality. The most important challenge with this mission is the time at which it was launched is very crucial that it just comes once in 76 years. If the technicians are even a second late to get their job done the mission would have been postponed to 76 more again. During space mission even a second matters(minding the atmosphere not only of earth also the space).Getting the job done in time is very crucial apart from the tedious endeavor to get the job done.Make yourself sure that you get your job done in time. This would definitely built your confidence and you would no more be left with a defeat having coffee with you.Cheer up.Thank you.
I feel like i won't accomplish anything in life?
Please don't laugh or be mean to me. You might think im being crazy.. Okay so i don't even know where to begin. I'm 16 and i live with a VERY intelligent family. Both my mom and my dad graduated from prestige colleges, my brother got perfect scores on all his tests for college, he gets like amazing test grades and everything. He doesn't study. AT ALL. he doesn't even do his homework. And yet he knows everything there is to know about history, math science. My sister is the same. She doesn't do **** and yet maintains perfect GPA. They both get all these awards from the school, the state, and stuff for doing nothing. They both were in accelerated and AP classes and i know i should be happy for them, but i feel like its not fair. I work so freakin hard every single day after school, for what? nothing. I seriously have no social life after school because i'm doing homework and studying, but it doesn't come to my benefit. I still have a B average ( yes i know b's are good, but everyone has A's. Plus, in my high school, people think B's are like C's or even D's.) I'm not smart at all. I can't answer questions in class and i literally think im STUPID. I want to have a successful life more than anything. my childhood is horrible. My parents don't like me, my dad..he's just horrible. I love everyone in my family, but i'm so jealous. My mom is always showing off to her friends about everything my siblings are achieving and there is absolutely nothing she can say about me. I have people who i can talk to in school, but i can't consider ANYONE a close friend that i can talk about my problems. So anyways this is just kinda venting, you don't have to read it. I don't care. I just feel like i won't be successful in life no matter how hard i try. I'm not smart to get into a good college, we're not rich enough to get into a good college. And im not even pretty to like consider modeling. I have NO talents. I've wanted to try piano, guitar, dancing, singing, but apparently ( according to my dad) we don't have the money to do that. My sister dances, sings, plays violin, clarinet, piano and swims. My brother plays football and knows everything there is to know about computers. I seriously have nothing. I feel like theres no point in my life and don't understand why i'm living.
I feel like I'm busy all day but don't actually accomplish anything. How can I change that?
It could be that you are engaged in “busy work.” Alot of times we make ourselves busy doing things that dont really matter to us all that much. Or- they matter, but they are only productive in the sense of “daily maintenance.”For example, I can be busy all day long by working out, taking my vitamins, preparing food, staying mostly on task for an 8 hour work day, doing laundry, going to the grocery store, calling a friend to help her hash out some issues, cleaning my bathroom, putting gas in the car, and a quick trip to Walmart to pick up some essentials, eating dinner, reading or watching a TV show for an hour, showering and going to bed. That is a busy and what could be called a productive day that includes a little bit of me time at the end.However, if it’s same ol’ same ol’ every day, and I haven’t identified things I can do toward building something more meaningful in my life, filling my day with “maintenance” tasks leaves me and probably anyone feeling like there was something important they didn’t get done.So my question to you would be- what are you busy doing? And do you have something in your life that has deeper meaning, a bigger dream tied to it, that gives your busy work meaning? You have to dig a little deeper and ask where it is you are lacking fulfillment. Identify that area. Set new goals. And everytime you start to do something, there are a couple of questions you can ask yourself:1: How does this add value to my life?2: Does this improve how I feel about myself?3: Does this get me closer to what is most important in my life?When we are busy doing things that are trivial (sometimes I call it shuffling papers) it can be a sign of procrastination toward that thing we know we are putting off.Hope this helps!www.RachaelsWarriorLife.com

ADHD is ruining my life, I feel like I will never accomplish something. What can I do?
I have struggled a long time with this. Have you read You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid or Crazy?By chance, did you have a crazy upbringing…lots of trauma/drama in your childhood?Some thing that has helped me a lot is cranial sacral therapy. (I had a traumatic birth).Another therapy that has helped significantly is EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). I can recommend a good resource if you are curious.I have found meditation to be helpful, but truthfully, even with medication and tons of effort, there is still quite a bit of struggle in my life.Nevertheless, by being self-employed, expressing my creativity, and being tuned into my body/feelings keenly, (along with blessed with a particularly forgiving husband), I’ve managed to do fairly OK professionally and otherwise.Organization, orderliness, punctuality, these kind of things are very challenging for me.Thinking out of the box, being a visionary, knowing how others feel, strong connection to nature and animals…these are simple.How about you?If you can get a flexible lifestyle to work for you, that may be your best bet.
Why am I feeling like I can never accomplish something?
Because you have made mistakes in the past and think that no matter how hard you try you will never be good enough. You ARE good enough. You have had a negative mindset from all the other times you have made mistakes and now you think that you will never be good at anything. Find your passion. Live your passion. Accomplishing what you love to do matters and if you love to do it, you will accomplish it. Be patient with yourself. Forgive yourself for past mistakes and then try to do better in the future. That’s all you can do. Believe in yourself and tell yourself daily that you can do it. You WILL make more mistakes but remember that it’s okay. You learn from your mistakes. You make mistakes so that you can be better next time. You would never improve if you never made mistakes. You can do it! I believe in you but now it’s time for you to believe in yourself because no one can change this mindset but you.
Why do most people never accomplish anything in life?
I am an American, I have lived in South America by my own choosing and now in Europe, I am college educated, and served in a war for my country. I am a somewhat decorated veteran, I have two wonderful children and a wonderful wife. Currently I am employed in my field of choice and am ok to do with finances. I have some of other "accomplishments" as well, but I can say that Other than my children I still feel like I have not accomplished anything of significant per portion. Interesting thought though is that the Children are the biggest accomplishment, and the best accomplishment in my book, Those people who you talk about getting fat and lazy at home with 3-5 kids. they have accomplished a lot with those alone. We should not judge others for their not being interested in what we are, we should look at the good that each other does and praise that. Someday you may become accomplished enough to have children then you can say what is considered accomplishing more. Buying a house in Vegas or raising a family. I do see where you are going with the question though and I can only say that it is mostly situation, circumstance and individual drive to do something different.
Im an ugly, worthless bastard and i will never accomplish anything in my life?
Maybe im being a little bit negative, but that is how i see myself. I don't go outside because im scared of what people think but still, i try to accept that i am inferior to everyone else and i have also tried to accept that i will never get anywhere good in my life. i can't ever look on the positive side of things because all i can think about is how horribly ugly i am and don't tell me true beauty comes from within because i don't have inner beauty. I am stupid and awkward when i am interacting with other people, i get crappy grades and i hate to feel stupid. What is wrong with my life? when i was younger, everything was perfect and now im just a complete mess. I have friends, and i don't have any problems with my family so i appreciate my life but still, i find it hard to find happiness when i am such a useless human being. im ugly, stupid, weak and slow. There's just no use for me in existence at all. I will never get girlfriend, i will probably get a crappy job or no job at all, and nobody will ever give a damn about me. I apologize for complaining so much, but could you please just give me any advice on how i can lead a happy life in my situation? i know there is a lt of people worse off than me but please any advice would be appreciated.
