In relationships, the biggest killer of a meaningful relationship is expectations. The more you expect, the more you're disappointed. The more you give, the more it works in your favor. And it's very difficult to be giving, you know? It's easy to expect from a person. Why am I expecting from that person? Because my sense of joy, my sense of happiness, my sense of validation comes from that other person. So, I'm expecting a lot.

Imagine if you are meditating and connecting very deeply to yourself, and you're finding that self-validation, that self-worth. You are not too dependent on it from somebody else. You would be in a position to give more to the other person. In which case, your relationships get better because now you're not so much dependent on them.

You know how it goes, especially in the youngsters. As soon as you start finding it within, then you know that if it comes, fantastic. But there'll be those days where it won't. So, then you don't just get disturbed because somebody doesn't validate you.

And that's true for social media as well. The more deeply connected you are to yourself, the more you find your own value, your own worth. You don't need anybody to give you that sense of worth. Your worth is not based on likes, comments, and shares. Your worth is based on who you are. And then, likes, comments, and shares are wonderful, but they don't define your value.

There's nothing wrong with likes, comments, and shares. There's nothing wrong with a girlfriend or a boyfriend sending a beautiful message. But the day doesn't come, I know how guys feel. You know, the day there is a heartbreak, I know how guys feel.
