Negativity and allowing oneself to get consumed by it are two things that will destroy your life.
If you don't make the most of your life, you're going to waste it.

When you put the needs of others before your own, you ruin your life.
You ruin your life by isolating yourself and suppressing your feelings about things. You waste your life by operating under the false assumption that being vulnerable is a sign of weakness.

Your life is ruined because you try too hard to make other people happy and because you don't ask for what you want and what you need.
You make a mess of your life by believing you don't deserve love and that you'd be happier on your own.
You ruin your life being afraid. You are paralyzed by your anxiety over making a mistake, and as a result, you do nothing but remain in the same place.
You ruin your life by worrying that everyone else is out to get ahead of you. When you stress out about everything and never take time to enjoy the ride, you ruin your life.
If you allow your history to have an impact on your present and your future, you will ruin your life.
If you let the things that happened in the past influence how you behave in the here and now, you will make a mess of your life.
