There are always higher standards to meet in life. You think you're good enough, pretty enough, clever enough, but there are always people out there much better than you.
C'mon lah don't live in a shell, thinking that you got enough. When you meet new people you'll be ashamed of how low or how high their standards are. How 'kampungan', how 'bego-bego', how stupid and even how good manner, how sweet-talker, how brave, how smart, how independent they are. You see from those people and you learn. You learn to imitate the good ones, and avoid the bad ones happen to you.
Education and family norms are two essentials sources where you set your life standards. You learn from school and your parents teach you. So if those two come from low-quality standards, you'll see how you do in the society.
Friends, life style, neighborhood, are secondary sources - but it also play a big role about life standards. So pick your friends carefully. You'll be - most probably- judged by who your friends are. You cant be a holy saint claim you can be friends with all kinds of people, unless you have strong will and noble purpose (ex. Social service or religion). You could, and maybe should be able to get along with all types of people, but you pick your friends carefully.
Also, never stop learning. You are social Homo sapiens. You live with other people (unless you're a hermit or anti-social loner, so you should be social ! Meet new people, learn new things, observe and combine new ideas and apply what suits you best ! - Never let anyone stops you, you should be the one control your self.
Higher your standards; Tidy up, be more healthy, maximize your strength and abilities. Be smarter, show only positive manners. Love your self, get people love you too. Respect your self, then people will respect you.
Thanks for reading.
Be wise, be smart !
