Life in Progress

It is easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of building a successful business or advancing in our careers. However, it is important to remember that our identity should not be solely defined by our professional achievements. Building my identity outside my business and career has been a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. I have found fulfillment in pursuing hobbies, volunteering for causes I am passionate about, and spending quality time with loved ones. These activities have allowed me to develop a well-rounded sense of self and have provided me with a sense of purpose beyond the confines of my work life. By nurturing relationships, exploring new interests, and engaging in meaningful experiences outside of work, I have cultivated a strong sense of identity that goes beyond what I do for a living. This has not only enriched my personal life but has also made me a more fulfilled and balanced individual overall. Ultimately, finding value in who we are as individuals outside of our professional roles is essential for leading a fulfilling and meaningful life.

In a world that often glorifies selflessness and sacrifice, it may seem counterintuitive to suggest that being selfish can be a positive thing. However, there are times when putting yourself first is not only necessary but also the most selfless act you can do.Self-care is essential for maintaining mental, emotional, and physical well-being. By prioritizing your own needs and taking care of yourself, you are better equipped to help others and contribute positively to the world around you. Neglecting your own needs in favor of constantly putting others first can lead to burnout, and resentment, and ultimately hinder your ability to truly be there for those who need you. Being selfish sometimes means setting boundaries, saying no when necessary, and taking time for yourself without feeling guilty. It means recognizing your worth and valuing your own needs just as much as you value the needs of others. In this way, being selfish can be the most selfless thing you can do.

Are You Living for You or Other People? It is easy to get caught up in the expectations and opinions of others. We often find ourselves living our lives according to what we think will please those around us, rather than following our desires and passions. But the question remains: are we truly living for ourselves or other people? Living for others can lead to a life filled with resentment and regret. It is important to remember that our happiness should not be dependent on the approval of others. True fulfillment comes from following our dreams and aspirations, regardless of what others may think. It is crucial to take the time to reflect on our values and beliefs and make decisions based on what truly makes us happy. By living authentically and staying true to ourselves, we can lead a more fulfilling and meaningful life. So ask yourself: are you living for yourself or other people? The answer may surprise you.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub)Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph)Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile

In today's fast-paced world, the later mindset has become all too common. We constantly put off important tasks and decisions until the last minute, believing that we work better under pressure. However, this procrastination is harming us in more ways than one. Firstly, the stress and anxiety that come with leaving things to the last minute can hurt our mental health. Constantly rushing to meet deadlines and scrambling to finish tasks can lead to burnout and decreased productivity. Secondly, by putting things off until later, we miss opportunities for growth and self-improvement. We fail to take advantage of the present moment and instead choose to delay our progress. It is time to break free from the latter mindset and prioritize our well-being and personal development. By taking action now rather than later, we can lead happier, healthier lives filled with success and fulfillment.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub)Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph)Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile

Hate and jealousy are two powerful emotions that can consume individuals and poison relationships. When faced with hate and jealousy, it is important to remember to stay true to oneself and not let these negative emotions dictate one's actions. Handling hate requires a strong sense of self-awareness and the ability to rise above the negativity. It is important to understand that hate often stems from insecurity or fear, and responding with kindness and compassion can help diffuse the situation. Jealousy, on the other hand, can be just as damaging if left unchecked. It is crucial to communicate openly and honestly with others about feelings of jealousy, rather than letting them fester and grow into resentment. In conclusion, handling hate and jealousy requires emotional maturity, self-reflection, and open communication. By approaching these emotions with understanding and empathy, we can navigate through difficult situations with grace and integrity.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub)Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph)Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile

In our relentless pursuit of happiness, we often fall into a trap of constantly seeking external sources to fulfill our desires. We believe that material possessions, relationships, or achievements will bring us lasting joy and contentment. However, the reality is that true happiness cannot be found in these fleeting moments of pleasure. The more we chase after happiness, the more it eludes us. We become trapped in a cycle of always wanting more, never satisfied with what we have. This constant craving for external validation and gratification only leads to disappointment and emptiness. Instead of seeking happiness outside ourselves, we must look within. True happiness comes from cultivating inner peace, gratitude, and self-acceptance. It is about finding contentment in the present moment and appreciating the simple joys of life. By letting go of the need to constantly seek happiness from external sources, we can break free from the trap and discover true fulfillment within ourselves. Happiness is not something to be chased after; it is something to be cultivated from within.

Self-love is often seen as a luxury, something that we can choose to indulge in if we have the time and resources. However, I argue that self-love is not optional - it is mandatory for our overall well-being and happiness. When we love ourselves, we are better equipped to handle life's challenges and setbacks. We are more resilient, confident, and able to bounce back from difficult situations. Self-love allows us to set healthy boundaries, prioritize our needs, and make choices that align with our values. Without self-love, we risk falling into patterns of self-criticism, doubt, and low self-esteem. This can lead to mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. By prioritizing self-love and self-care regularly, we can cultivate a strong sense of worthiness and inner peace. In conclusion, self-love is not a luxury - it is a necessity for living a fulfilling and joyful life. Let us make it a priority to love ourselves unconditionally every day.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub) Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph) Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile

Expectation and trust are two powerful forces that can either uplift us or bring us crashing down. In my own experience, I have learned the hard way that placing too much faith in others and expecting too much from them can lead to disappointment and hurt. I trusted someone wholeheartedly, believing that they had my best interests at heart. I expected them to always be there for me, to support me through thick and thin. But when they let me down, it felt like a betrayal of the highest order. The pain of broken trust cut deep, leaving scars that may never fully heal. I realized then that expectations and trust must be tempered with caution and discernment. Blindly putting our faith in others without considering their true intentions can leave us vulnerable to heartache. It is important to strike a balance between hope and realism, understanding that not everyone will live up to our expectations or prove themselves worthy of our trust.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub) Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph) Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile

Dating nowadays has evolved significantly with the rise of technology and social media. Gone are the days of traditional courtship, as modern dating now involves swiping through profiles on dating apps and engaging in virtual conversations before meeting in person. While some may argue that this new way of dating lacks the personal connection and authenticity of face-to-face interactions, I believe it offers a plethora of benefits. Dating apps provide a convenient platform to meet potential partners based on shared interests and values. They also allow for more efficient communication, making it easier to get to know someone before committing to a date. Additionally, social media allows us to learn more about a person's background and personality before taking the next step. In conclusion, modern dating may be different from what our parents or grandparents experienced, but it offers unique opportunities for connection and compatibility. Embracing these changes can lead to fulfilling relationships in today's fast-paced world.Follow me on IG: Instagram (@angelydub) Follow Life in Progress on IG: Instagram (@lifeinprogressph) Follow me on Tiktok: Angely Dub's Creator Profile
