All these activities have been shown to increase happiness,
self-worth, and self-acceptance. By choosing happiness over
success as a priority, you might be less vulnerable to a fear of
failure.
If you find you’re still struggling with how to best evaluate
yourself, don’t be afraid to reach out and seek the support of
others. You might ask a friend to help you sort through your
feelings about success. Sometimes our friends are more supportive
of our efforts than we are to ourselves! You might also consider
talking to a mental health professional with an outside
perspective.
Just remember, don’t underestimate the value of your own
internal measures for success. Being “good enough” can mean
whatever you want it to mean. The mind is a powerful tool - a
positive attitude and a hearty pat on the back once in a while
can go a long way in achieving happiness for life.

For its subtlety, inventiveness, and dramatic force, the verse of
the twelfth-century Persian poet Nezami has been compared to that
of Shakespeare, and in the same way that Shakespeare's Romeo and
Juliet has become the archetypal Western love story, so Nezami's
Layli and Majnun occupies an equally uncontested place as the
iconic love story of the Middle East.
The works have many similarities besides their central status in
their respective cultures: in both, the lovers are thwarted by
their families' opposition; in both, the heroine's family chooses
another husband for her; in both, the vehemence of the lovers'
emotion wreaks social havoc and leads to their deaths.

Tomorrow When the War Began is a new film about seven college
bound friends who return from a weekend camping trip to discover
that a foreign army has invaded their Australian homeland. With
their friends and families taken prisoner, they must band
together and find a way to fight for their freedom and survival.
The fate of a futuristic war rests upon one man's abilities to
confront the ghosts of his past. Humanity is losing to an alien
invasion, so to fight back, scientists develop a way to draft
soldiers from the past to fight the war.
