Do good things ever really come to those who wait? and does being sincere really pay off?

Question

sometimes i wonder if i should just turn into a selfish b***h because it seems as if those people have such easier lives.

what do you think?

Answer 1

I think that good things do come to those who wait, I think that it is just God testing our patients.

Answer 2

i don't really know because nothing good never happens to me when i wait and nothing really pays off.

Answer 3

yes they do, and by being sincere and positive about you and  your life, it really does pay off (-:

Answer 4

i'll tell you the d**n truth...it just doesn't matter...you're going to get screwed either way. but i do feel that eventually you will have to atone for what you do. whether it's the instant kharma, (just add water and ***** and stir well), or the "after" we spend our entire existence trying to define. all you can do is live the best life you can. we can make negetive choices, but honestly it's soooo much easier to be a jerk in this world than to take a higher road. and while the high road might not be the most glamorous or exciting road, who wants to be those other jerks....they have the same issues that the folks who are honest have but they have to untangle a web they have created around themselves. breathe and do unto others, my friend! you can do it!

Answer 5

ENDS JUSTIFIES THE MEANS ....

YOU CAN BE ANY BAD PERSON TO GET THING EASILY ..BUT IF YOU ARE A FAITHFUL PERSON AND COMMITTED TO THE RIGHT AND STRAIGHT MORAL RULES IN YOUR LIFE SO YOU HAVE TO BE PATIENT TO REACH YOUR DESTINATION ,,AND YOU WILL ...EVEN AFTER A PERIOD ...

Answer 6

Honestly, for me good thing don't come to you, you the one that have to go out there and search for whatever you want, rather than wait.... Being sincere pay off most of the time.. but let face it, some time we cant just count on being sincere... Just do whatever you think that is right for the moment and never ever regret thing that you done or said..

Answer 7

Not selfish b**ch ^^ But being just what you are truly counts or try to be worldly wise instead. ( Wiser in a good way )

And yes, be patient too..

Answer 8

No, they don't. It would be bad to say, but if you always wait, nothing will come to you. This is a pessimistic idea, but my experience of life teaches me this.

And I don't want to become a dishonest man to obtain something concrete like money or fame. I prefer to keep me poor, but honest. My coherence is not on sale.

The only way is the perseverance in what you like for you, and for your life.

Bye

Answer 9

acting like an unselfish girl does not require you to wait for anything.

Answer 10

In the long run, b*****s regret it because they didn't wait.

Answer 11

I believe in Karma and what goes around comes around, so yes, i like to think that all good things do come to those who wait. Being sincere is a good virtue to have, and i know what you mean about some people being selfish and they seem to have more, however, what is their conscience like? Can they sleep properly at night? At least you know that your heart is in the right place and your conscience is clear....

Answer 12

I believe good things come to those who wait. When you say "wait," do you mean in the near future, like next week or next month? Or in fifty years time?

I also think if you remain sincere and honest and NOT turn into a selfish b***h, good things come your way. Becoming selfish may get a good thing or two, but you wont feel truly happy with it because you will have a guilty conscience. It's better to earn the things you want. And as for the other selfish peoples, they might seem as though they have easier lives but they're just kidding themselves. Everyone has their highs and their lows. Sorry for writing so much.

Answer 13

Patience is a virtue. They may seem like they live easier lives, but do you really want to be like them. It will all come back to them. No one can be happy like that, only caring about themselves and making everyone else feel like scum, except those who can help them. You would have no friends, and the one s who pretend to be would be just as selfish as you. Finding a better half would be impossible, on account a relationship is two people who put the other before themselves. And of course, after you die nothing ever works out for people like that.

Answer 14

It seems that you are a bit disappointed with the way that things have been going for you. You perceive that it is easy sailing for those who are selfish and care least for others. Perhaps you have been sincere and ardent in all your efforts but you feel that things are not turning your way or the manner you like even after prolonged endeavourance and patience. I will tell you a truth and the truth is that you cannot suddenly change yourself into a selfish being if you wish. Every individual is born with a basic texture that determines his attitude towards life. Some are born selfish, a very few are really selfless and most of us are like you. We feel and percieve the same way as you have expressed.  Inspite of feeling low sometimes, I realize that there is always a reward for sincerety and patience. Turning selfish one fine morning is very unlikely and even if that is attempted, it is going against one's character which might end in complicating things further and loosing morale. You do not know how it feels to be selfish and whether it is really pays in running after short term deals.The best way to cope up is to give the best as the heart calls and to accept  with grace whatever comes in life.
