"If
You want to know where your heart is,look to where you mind goes when it
wanders."
There are
certain instances in life when you realize that your life is completely messed
up.There's isn't a thing which is actually in its place. It is a very common
problem which most of us come across in our lives when we live a life which
actually doesn't belong to us.
We spend
our whole lives doing what we 'should do' and not actually what we 'want
to' either due to the expectations of
our closed ones or because everyone else is doing that. It's a common belief
that the thing which gives you more money ,status or power is worth doing but
what about the satisfaction.? In this
blind race people tend to forget that satisfaction or happiness doesn't come from
what we intellectually are supposed to do but instead what we intuitively want
to.
Most of the
times we are confused about what to do with our life whether it is about work
or relationships.Who doesn't want to get a 'good secured job' , with monthly
earnings in lakhs. But have you ever thought that, is that money going to give
you any sort of comfort more correctly happiness , If you are just stuck at
your workplace from morning 8 to evening 8 waiting for the weekends and not
enjoying a single bit of your work.? You will be desperate for the weekends to
come when you can take a break from your job-place , spending time with friends and taking out all sort of frustration about your work.At that time
you will realize that instead of going after what others were doing if you had
chosen what you really loved ,Your life would be much simpler because Sometimes
it's all about your ability to believe in where you are going even when you are
not sure about what lies ahead.
Taking
engineering stream after high school is one of the most common example of a mass imitation.There are less than 10% of people who really want to be good engineers and
excel in their field.I have a friend who has taken this stream just because her
best friend was taking it .What's the
sense in doing such things.? No doubt , she will complete her graduation because
getting marks in any sort of examination is not really a tough task but what
about her future?? The future which she is going to face is in complete
darkness.I asked her once whether she is happy with her life.? And she had
nothing to say in response.
Whatever
you allow to happen will always continue until and unless you taken a step to
make it correct.The same applies to the relationships.Getting in any
relationship due to someone's expectations is an easy task but to live it
,is the thing in which most of the people generally fail.
So now the
question of the hour is Are you happy with your life?
Are the
things which you do in leisure time , the ones you intuitively want to
do or simply because you are supposed to do them?
What you actually
want to do? Though it is a tough one to answer but you have to find it for your good future..You have to do what actually defines you as a person, who you
really want to be.People generally chose the most easiest way of finding an
answer to this 'The counselors' .But instead of approaching a counselor you can
do it by yourself. You just need to sit back for a moment ,rewind whatever you
did so far in your life ,what all things actually gave you happiness ,what sort
of work you enjoy the most..And there You will find your answer. It really
works.
You don't really have to
live your life, all-time filling someone Else's expectations .When You will assemble
every piece of your life not by any assumption but consciously it will feel like its all yours now, not driven by anyone else, totally crafted and painted by
your own colors.The way it really has to be.
