Why it's better to be unhappy
Hello, I hope you and your family are doing well.
Provoking title, huh?
But it's true. Think about it.
When you are happy, what do you want to do? Nothing.
When you are satisfied, what do you want to build? Nothing.
And why would you?
You are satisfied with your life, so why would you change anything?
You are happy with your life, so why would you seek discomfort?
That's why to do something great; you need to be unsatisfied.
To build something great, you need to be hungry.
You must be hungry.
You must be unhappy with your current situation.
If you aren't - YOU WILL NOT ACHIEVE ANYTHING.
Stay hungry, my friends.
