Men is said to achieve goals when he has drive or some type of belief something that he really believes in without a doubt . From.ceaser to hitler they achieved so much because.of their strong and steady belief system . My question is how you believe in something when you know it's all made up ? I want to believe in something to improce my life but dont know how to go on about it .... Religion comes as a solution but I never got behind that idea like they say... Ignorance is.bliss

You know the way to be a better you. You just have to find belief in yourself. It comes from loving yourself then allowing that love to be shared with others.
It is not something to achieve, it is a way of viewing and living in this world.

Really well said man. Love, kindness and compassion seem to be the most important aspects of life to the humans I admire the most.
Unfortunately, I have found (personally and anecdotally) that making it through the depths of human suffering and pushing through the other side is what seems to cause these things to grow...

Religious people get their drive , worth and motivation from their religion. They seem rather happy in life.

I disagree with this. The happier people I meet in life are often devoid of dogmatic religious faith.

Almost certainly. My big breakthrough in this regard came from a high dose of 2C-T-7 and a good dose of time with myself in a mirror.

You should try Buddhism, which is not a religion but a philosophy, a way to live your life.
You can be an atheistic Buddhist, or a theistic Buddhist, the choice is yours.
