Pleasing Others Is A Daunting Task, But It's Still Important For Building Successful Careers

Why is it so difficult to satisfy one's heart? Satisfying one's stomach is way easier because it primarily relies on organic products rather than human emotions and expectations. As a result, the heart feels full when all its conditions and sweet indulgences are met. Honestly, speaking from my past experiences and interactions with others, I have realized that it is veraciously difficult to please one's heart if the person you want to impress is a bit stingy when it comes to overlooking minor mistakes and prioritizing work ethic.

This topic of interest usually arises in a person's career when they wholeheartedly strive to impress their superiors who are not always flexible with their expectations and guidelines. For instance, one of my acquaintances works as an Interior Designer and she is responsible for strategically changing the architecture of indoor buildings i.e. houses, theatres, stadiums, etc. Not only is she the mastermind of an originally crafted state-of-the-art interior composition, but she also has to dedicate a significant amount of her time towards impressing the heart of the individual whose house or building she is designing. After all, her client is her most crucial critic!

An interior designer weaves a series of geometric landscapes and paintings that will actually make a house seem like a house. They are more focused on creating the picturesque panorama of their client's desires, emotions, and expectations. They make it their utmost priority to avidly search inside the hearts of individuals with the goal of satisfying them. An individual's heart can more accurately be described as the mirror image of their personality, hobbies, interests, and wishes. So when people try to satisfy the hearts of individuals, an intense level of thought is dedicated.

This intense level of thought takes eons of moments in order to fully mature. Eventually, their simple thought emerges into the form of an elaborate trendsetter in terms of design. Finally, the flame of satisfaction that we are almost always striving to inculcate within an individual's heart gets achieved in the process. The heart is actually a two-fold organ that needs to be satisfied in order to move on in life! Regardless of whether you are an interior designer or not, creativity is innate and it truly does strike a chord within the hearts of people. It just takes a bit of time for others to fully understand your logic and passion.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.

15 Things That Happen On Your Birthday

Do you have a small get-together or throw a big bash?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.
