Danny:
We get so wrapped up in numbers at times. At Christmas, we want more presents than we got the year before. Same goes for birthdays. In high school, we want to lose our virginity at a younger age than our friends, and then have more girlfriends and boyfriends than them. Or we want to get higher scores on our tests than our fellow students, either for ourselves or to please our parents.
Danny:
At work. We want to get bigger raises and more recognition than our colleagues. And yet, numbers are superficial. Do we really need the numbers on a scale to tell us we should be happy with our weight? Or should we be happy for our health, knowing that weight is another set of numbers to control us?
Danny:
So, sure, numbers may make us feel better and enable us to have a better life. But that depends on your definition of what a better life is. For me, it's being able to spend evenings and weekend time with my wife and kids. By all means, care about how you're perceived. Just don't let the numbers rule you.
