Are you trying to please everybody?

“I don’t know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.”

– Bill Cosby

Working hard at trying to please everybody else is basically a ‘set up’, because there is not way that you can please everyone. No matter what you do someone is going to be upset, disappointed, frustrate, or fed up with you, so just give up on that one even before you frustrate yourself any further.

Do yourself and your future a favor… stop trying to please everybody else. I’ve learned that the only person to be trying to please in life is God, and I mean after all isn’t His opinion the one that matters most in the end??!?!?!?!?!?
