Unrelated: Embracing Self-Reliance and Authenticity

It's essential to avoid both praising and rebuking others. Anyone can achieve happiness and satisfaction starting from this moment, and it's not magic but a fact. Happiness is attainable but requires taking steps forward and not staying in one place. Philosophy is not just a field of study but a living attitude. Don't live to please others or expect them to please you. Don't fear judgment or seek recognition from others. Choose the path that aligns with your beliefs and is best for you, balancing self-reliance and living in harmony with society.
