When was the last time you were rewarded? I don't even remember.. What do you do to get that feeling of winning when you haven't done any thing in the recent past!? Some have joined the gym. They work hard and make themselves believe that they have achieved some feat. It does feel good after a good workout but what you do just makes you happy for some time.. the real work is not finished. Some play games online, win some matches and feel accomplished for some time.. this fake achievement has made real life difficult.. praise is something that has become difficult to get so we move to alternative methods. You really want to feel like a winner... Work your fat ass off.. not now but some time in the future you will get some fruit of your hard work. But don't expect anything.. as expectations lead to disappointment.
