Right on man! This goes hand in hand with my own post and exactly what we were both discussing earlier. I agree, we all make mistakes in life, and the best thing to do is admit those mistakes and live up to them, rather than run and hide from them.
Its also very true that society is very demanding of us all, and often it feels as if there is no room for mistakes at all; just as you noted in the case of North Korea. A very harsh reality indeed. And, this all goes back to what we discussed earlier regarding how others, just like ourselves, often face similar painful challenges in life as we do, and we must consider them as much as we do ourselves.
Those societal demands you talked about really touched home. I've worked for some businesses where no matter what I did nothing was ever good enough, while others cherished the work I did and rewarded me for it. Unfortunately, the world isn't always forgiving, nor always grateful for our efforts. In the end, we're all only human though, and no doubt we cannot be perfect all the time, as perfection literally does not exist.
Yup! The thing is that no one is perfect but let many people in society wants perfection from us which is horrible because those are unrealistic expectation. The best thing to do there is to take toxic people that does not care for you or appreciate your efforts out of your life and only have people in your life who understands you, supports you and appreciate the effort you are doing for others.
You can come join my Discord group where we help Steemit members like you get more exposure on Steemit: https://discord.gg/WmxRnc3
If you do not have a Discord, making one is very easy! If you need help setting it up, I will be glad to do so.
Totally agree! Toxic people will just continuously drag us down if we let them. Those unrealistic expectations are a very real thing too. As I mentioned, I had employers like that off and on over the years, where there was often a boss who never thanked anyone for anything and always complained no matter how hard we all tried. I would always end up quitting and telling them, fine do it yourself! The funny thing was, despite all their whining, they would always call me a few days later begging me to come back, and the answer was always no.
Respect is a 2 way street, and some people just don't learn I guess. I don't have Discord, but I may set up an account up there when I can get a chance. Right now I manage over 100 social media accounts, so I'm kind of overloaded with too much to handle right now.
I built up a number of brands on social media over the years, which sadly have never benefited me financially, nor the people who work to death to help me manage them. I'm working to try and turn things around now. I'm going to launch a social media management/brand building service. I've built so much stuff up on Google+ over the years I know how to grow anything there. But economical conditions are a problem, no one wants to invest right now, only in financial markets.
