It is always fun to see a movie about someone who live life to the fullest, some one who knows what they want, do what they like and pursuing their passion. It is not always an easy life, but at least they enjoy it and in the end or overall, they have a happy life.
But why is it difficult to be happy..? Just watched the Three Idiots movie couple hours ago, although their jokes is not new they taught us why is it difficult to “live life to the fullest” and why it seems impossible to do what we really like or passionate about.
Fear is one of them, we all are afraid of something, we afraid of failure, we afraid of having unsuccessful life, we are afraid of hunger etc etc. How can we enjoy our life if we always constantly afraid of something. Fear is natural, it part of our survival mechanism but excessive fear of something is never be good (shrink it called phobia..
).
Community pressure : Success is defined by community, have less or different than that, and we will be seen as not successful person. Most of Indonesian raised and taught to be a worker, we are judged by the size of company we are working at. Be an entrepreneur who run small profitable company you will have difficulty to marry someone else daughter , be a writer or painter and the community will took a pity on you.. and worst, our family will bear the burden as well.
As long as we are afraid to be unsuccessful by our community standard, we are forced to do what we probably do not like to do. A good lessons from the movie.. I could not agree more
