Several years ago, i graduated from college and had high hopes for myself. Fast forward a couple years; i'm still broke, i have a $hit job, and i can't afford to move out. SO much for the go to college and get a great job cliche!
My dilemma:
My mom takes it upon her self to tell the whole world my life story (relatives, her co-workers, etc.) and they in return provide me with negative commentary and ill will. I can't understand why these people (my relatives especially) find happiness and satisfaction in my shortcomings and lack of success? It's bad enough that my professional life sucks, but the constant "failure" reminder is really starting to get to me.
I have read all of the "success" books, however there is one element i am missing from equation; a break. Each and every successful person has had some sort of epiphany or break in their journey towards greatness.
A lot of posters have some insightful information and i'm hoping someone will help me out in regards to this matter. This may seem petty and whiney, but this matter really is a great hindrance to my life.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
