Have you ever been in a situation where you have done something just to make someone else happy?
You think that you are making yourself happy.     I have done that many times because I wanted to impress people or I thought that if I made someone else happy it would certainly make me happy. I understand that all of us want our close friends and family to be proud of us, so we work hard in school or in our careers to meet their expectations.     But if you are trying to realize other people’s dreams without keeping yourself satisfied, you will never be happy.
So you have to be clear and honest with yourself about what you want in your life. If you are honest with yourself, you will be more optimistic.     You feel like you won’t need to achieve something for someone else.
  They fear to be rejected(排斥) by others. They think and say “If I choose this job or career path, that person will think I am out of my mind”, or “I really want to start this business but those people will think that I won’t make any money”.    Don’t think this way. If you follow other people’s wishes but cannot be true to yourself, you will have a hard time feeling great about yourself.
