Hello guys,
so the next two months I've decided to improve my fundamentals and give full attention to it.
Can someone recommend me a good article on improving my voice? Someone posted a link here but I can't find it.

The other issue.
so I activated my Facebook for a particular reason. I've deactivated it again, but I wish I had never logged in.

thing is, I see all these people being happy with the mediocre lives they lead, wasting their time doing nothing other than meaningless conversations, liking a girl's pictures, posting emotional status' es all that shit..
I asked a friend who's the most non judgemental person I know how they can be happy leading such lives and uploading 'cool' photos to get a couple of worthless likes. he said it's their lives, we shouldn't judge them. When I asked him how, he didn't have a definite answer.

I've come a far way to being non judgemental but seeing stuff like this just pisses and me off and ruins my interactions. how do I stop feeling like this towards such people.. i.e people with no drive and such?

Thanks.

The reason he didn't have a definitive answer is because he has no idea whether or not these people are actually happy. In terms of contentment and happiness, Facebook is a giant facade of status updates and photos. The girl/guy on Facebook that seems to be having the "best" life (by your standards) could be wallowing in self-pity and sorrow in his own room in between his posts. Facebook shows you nothing about what a person is feeling -- it mostly only shows you what they want to be feeling.

When I first got into self-improvement it pissed me off as well, but recently I have hit a point where I don't care.

It's a waste of energy and time you could be directing yourself toward something more productive. You can't change people, only people can change people.

One of my best friends has been in a rut for years. He always expressed an interest for more but never did anything. At first it used to piss me, but I realized no matter how much nothing worked. Actually got him the first 50 pages of the E-book. He read it, thought it was cool, then forgot about it.

You hit the nail on the head here. Thank you.

Yes, I totally agree. A girl who was once a friend of mine, (i don't talk to her anymore cuz she's too judgemental and a psychic vampire) she would always tell me about how shitty her life actually was. But on facebook, one would look at her and probably think 'how can someone be so happy? '
she got 500+ likes too and all these oribiters. But all that....all that was a facade. I don't think I'll be logging in to facebook anytime soon again.

Thanks for the replies guys. I really appreciate it. :)
