The harsh truth you ignore

There are harsh truths we live by and those we ignore. The importance of these truths is whether we decide to abide by them or use them to our advantage. What are some for the truths you ignore and why?

'We will all die in the end' is the number 1 truth we all avoid. If we live with the expectation that we will die, then we are not living. We should embrace the hardships of life as gifts or guides to the right path. There is much to be discovered. Be quirky, don't wade in satiety, keep building yourself up. The more titles you have, the more meaningful life is. When I mean titles, I'm referring to mother, daughter, cousin, builder, doctor and so on. The possibilities are endless. So when death comes you can say you've truly lived.

Some people believe that 'the world only cares about what it can get from you.' There are people who make this a truth that you sometimes can't ignore. But what are you going to do? Are you going to let that define your lease on life? Get up every day and work more diligently than you had before. Your success does not detract from your ideal goals. Don't think to become stagnant because of this truth. Explore your horizons and rise above your expectations.

Life can be unpleasant when you listen to the harsh truths about the world. This is why you choose the ones that will add to your success and reject those that will subtract from your greatness.
