Never Allow Yourself To Be So Desperate That You End Up Settling For Far Less That What You Deserve This quote can be use as a great reminder for us like to follow people requirement till us forget our level of requirement when to do or choosing something in life. Everyone have they level of requirement in life, just don't so desperate sometime, when you are in sad moment cause you cannot get what you expect and then you are drag the below level to end up to settle what is far less what you are expect or deserve. That is the wrong way and you wouldn't going to be happy on that way, even you end up getting something but it is not as your below expectation. I will be very agree to the quote above, beside i will use it as a reminder to me to do or to get something in my life. Are you will be agree with the quote above, any view,comment or real life story, can be sharing on here.

Hmm... but can we change our minds? I mean, like me for example I thought of marrying some gentleman, with fat pocket and gorgeous looking. So I slipped all the man that who wanted me because they did not pass my criteria. As years go by, my beauty and appeal diminish... (hu hu hu) but there is this one, who just came along.. a knight in shining armor... in his white horse.. and willing to free the lady in tower (it's me).... then.. he did it.. and saved me from evil guard in the form of the dragon.. then when he removed his helmet.. he is not even a half of the gorgeous looking man I am aspiring... Is it bad if I choose him because I am desperate and forgetting the criteria i have set before? Will he end up the Less that I deserve? what do you think?

Oh yes Ungu... but maybe the expectations and criteria when younger, was too high and too impossible. maybe he is really his prince charming.

For my own opinion, being desperate on something or the thing that you expected the most would not be a good thing, because it would be the reason of our depression and stress in life. Actually, I have experience that kind of situation in my life, being desperate on the things you really wanted, the result would be too much depression. You should not allow yourself to be so desperate because it would do nothing in your life. What I could give as an advice, just enjoy your life, just go with flow of your life. Always have faith in God, He will always be the one to help you and guide you through your life.Don't worry He will always listen to you just trust Him with your whole heart.

Well it is true to an extent sometime people think that they deserve something but they actually do not. I feel that is you want something that you have to work for it things do not just fall into your hands magically. I think that the saying should be "I you feel you deserve something then work your butt of to get it cause nothing in life is accomplished with out hard work". So that was a really long quote but it got the point across.

Recently I felt much about desperation. I'm a fresh face at work. When I do something unfamilar I always make mistakes. Especially there is little time spare for you, you will be very nervious. The deadline is there and I feel so desperate. I have ever wanted to give up, but when I thought of that once the same situation appeared I told myself not to give up but to struggle to prove my ability, soon problems solved. So it is a kind of attitude. When you are desperate, everything you have done is nothing. When you believe yourself, you will find the way.

I am guilty of this, because I didn't think I was worthy or deserving of anything more than second best. Friendships, relationships, I have lowered my standards because I didn't think I was worthy of love, I am unattractive so when I was younger I was desperate for a relationship, I wanted someone, anyone to actually WANT me, what I ended up with was a partner who manipulated, abused and controlled me. I even had a friend of 9 years, I was doing all the giving, she was doing all the taking, I never questioned it because I didn't think I was worth anything.

Yes, we should always set ourselves for the things that we deserve. We should not feel desperate. For example, in finding a job, we have our degrees that can give us good jobs. However, there are only a few available jobs. So when we are in a hurry, we are desperate to look for a job so we apply for some blue collar jobs. I guess that's one example of this quote. We should not give up to find the best job for us. If we'll satisfy ourselves from blue collar jobs, we look so desperate and people would look down to us. Thanks for sharing and happy mylotting.
