“I can’t think of a more wasteful use of time than spending it trying to please people.”
— Jennifer Lawrence

Simplified Meaning:
Spending your time trying to make everyone else happy is not constructive. It's often impossible to please everyone, and it can lead to a lot of stress and disappointment. For example, imagine you're organizing a party and you're constantly changing plans to match what others want. You'll end up tired and may not enjoy the party yourself. Instead, focus on what you genuinely enjoy and what makes you happy. When you prioritize your own happiness, you’re more likely to attract people who appreciate you for who you are, not for what you do for them. This approach is much more fulfilling and helps you live a more authentic and satisfying life.
