Make your decisions and learn to live with the consequences good or bad. Keep your happiness on top of your priority list. Do not compare yourself with others around you since a comparison like this always give you disappointment.

If you wish to change your loved ones, yelling and scolding hardly serve the purpose. Either you learn to accept them the way they are or learn to live without them.

Make them understand but do not impose yourself on others.
