You Can't Please Everyone

No matter how hard you try to please the world, you can't please everyone. No matter what you do in life, there will always be haters you cannot please. It's impossible to make everyone happy, no matter how hard you try. You're bound to upset someone along the way, whether intentionally or not.

No One is Immune to Failure

Failure can happen anywhere and any day. It is bound to happen to you at some point in your life. No one is immune to failure. Failure is a part of life, and everyone experiences it at some point. Life is like a game. When you lose, you fail, and you have to start over. Even if you fail, it is not the end of the world.

Your Happiness is Entirely Up to You

Your happiness is up for you to decide. Whatever decision or action you take, it is all up to you. No one else can make you happy, and no one else is responsible for your happiness. If you aren't happy, then you are the one to blame. No one can control your life.
