December 5th 'the loop'

Thoughts

I want my friends to be happy as the people I spend time with have a great impact on my mood as well. For instance I met my friend N this evening and she was a bit upset and I feel like somehow it mad me a bit upset. But later on as we sat together and talked we played some game and she laughed and that made me feel better as well. Which people make me happy? Are the people that I am trying to put an effort to make them happy, doing the same for me?

My friend J gifted me a plant. This is nice of her. 

Should an effort be made to understand people?  To know what they want? Or is it a futile process. As seldom we understand ourselves. On the other hand, would be selfish, not to understand them? not to gauge their emotions? The motive would matter, I presume. 

Positives:

I exercised. 

I tried to reach the target study that I set for myself.

I met my friends for some time and it relaxed me. 

I wrote this diary, as this is part of getting disciplined. 

from now on I am going to call negatives as "to improve"

Engaging more in studies

using my phone less and being less distracted 

Someone wise on internet said "to turn your fears into excitements" worth a shot, I guess.
