I used to think that the only thing I wanted was to be rich & famous because it would make me the happiest girl in the world.
Tons of people feel that way. We grow up in a society where fame and money are always praised and it is the key to a person's happiness. So that's what most people do. We strive and strive to become the people we see in the magazines because we wish that we had their life.
Now don't get it twisted. I am not saying that being rich and famous is bad or wrong. It is a beautiful thing if it happens. What I am saying is that if you are waiting for that day to come so that you can be fulfilled > well you will be waiting a long time.
Fulfillment might seem like it comes from that but there are tons of people who have had that and it never truly fulfilled them.
I had my own "fame" on Facebook for awhile and it made me feel awesome that everyone was liking, commenting, and sharing my posts which were awesome and I was super grateful for it. But then I started to realize that once I got all that attention, it still wasn't satisfying me inside. I always assumed that would make me happy but when I got it, I realized it wasn't what I was really looking for, so I then took some time away from FB to discover what really Fulfilled me deep down.
Recently there was a millionaire that I looked up to for about 3 years and he was a successful internet marketer. He had a mental breakdown on Facebook Live and literally lost most of the respect he had accumulated for so many years within a matter of minutes. He has millions, a gorgeous fiance, a beautiful luxurious home, and that still was not satisfying him.
I truly believe that deep fulfillment comes from within ourselves and when we remember that it is within us, we then can Be Fulfilled. That is when the pleasures of the world are satisfying ;)
