How do you keep your head up when it seems like everyone doing good but you?

I'm going through a bit of a rough patch right now and it's that much harder when it seems like everyone else is eatin' good. I try to be happy for them but I can't deny the very human emotion of envy and disappointment at times.

how do you stay positive?

Have you looked into ways of making your self more attractive to potential employers?

Do you have revealing tats? Dreads? all of that has to go

A lot of people are not doing as well as they are making out...its all about perception

No situation is permanent...life has its ups and downs...like you said its just a patch...

How do you know that those "others" aren't struggling in other areas that may not appear on the surface?

Hang out with homeless, it should pick up your spirits and make you appreciate your current space, and also motivate you.

Log off Facebook, for starters. It's not real. People flaunt too much in an attempt to make you feel inferior. That's *exactly* what's happening here. Log off that shyt and focus on what's making you unhappy. It's important, though, that you take it one problem at a time because if you try to tackle a mountain of shyt at once, you probably won't have the focus or energy to accomplish anything.

Key is to stop worrying and comparing yourself to others. It's a pointless endeavor. Always keep an eye on what you're doing and keep on mashing until you get where you want.

Try your best to stop comparing yourself to other people. Everybody got problems, don't matter how well they look like they doin in life.

People tend to focus on what the next man doing or got on their plate, don't do that. It's easier said than done, but focus on yourself and push yourself to where you wanna be, whether that shyt is emotionally, financially or whatever.
