Each one of us has a different concept of what a good or
decent life is. Some people’s mindset makes them need a life full of luxury, while others have lower standards, which is why this concept varies. Some of the aspects that appear when talking about quality of life are notoriously more difficult to control, and affect others on some level. Someone’s work efficiency may worsen if their mental health is at risk, for example. Had our mental health worsened, our relationship with others would not have been the same, and our community life and economic well-being would have also probably deteriorated. This is something that isn’t easily solved, or that we might have any control over. Moreover, the media has a different concept of quality of life. Influencers show that it is necessary to possess luxuries in order to live happily but that way of living is not something that the common citizen can afford, so everyone needs to adjust to and learn to live with their specific situations. We need to grasp the concept of what we have and what we can afford, so that living our lives can be enjoyable with as little or as much as we have. Briefly to conclude, we need to acknowledge that some aspects of our lives cannot be changed or improved in any way by us, therefore we need to adjust to our conditions and focus more on those aspects that can be.
