When Planning Fails

We plan about almost everything in life. We used to make schedules before exams to plan how we study in school. As we grew older our plans became more complex. Planning which college we are going to join, career, whom to marry and much more. When one of this fails we are shattered and scared. We decide there’s nothing that will work out in our lives.

But we need to know that most of things don't go as per our plan no matter how perfect everything seems. Uncertainty is a part of being alive because even a plain straight perfect line on ECG denotes death. So what can we do about it? Should we stop planning and blindly live? No, not really. I think we need to accept our lives as it is and try making it better. 

You might ask how. I agree I’m not a pro at living the best life because I have had my ups and downs and still working everyday to make mine better. But one thing I have learned is we need to constantly grow by studying something and doing something. For example, If you failed an job interview based on which you planned supporting your family financially or marrying a person or any other reason of your own you can’t just give up, instead you need to accept the fact that you failed and analyze why you failed and you need to prepare better and be present(U magically won’t get a job. We need to apply to companies) and grab the opportunities.

This doesn’t apply to job interviews alone it can be anything. Edison holds the record for most failed attempts before inventing a functional light bulb. His response has become famous to entrepreneurs: “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

When it rains look for the RAINBOW, 
When it’s dark look for the STARS
          So Lookout for the best in everything you do and never get dejected by life. Because life has More to go

An incident at the gym 💪💪

 Hi to whoever reading this blog sorry that I was missing for a while. You know caught up in work and blah and blah but these are just reasons as I was lazy to write this blog. I suddenly felt I have nothing to share here. But got my senses back so lets jump to the story😁 As I was hitting the gym the other day I saw this tremendous looking girl who had well built muscles better than any girl I have ever seen at the gym before. She looked something like below pic. You can tell by the look of it she has been working really hard to be that healthy and how consistent she must have been to have built that great physique. Whenever she walks into the gym you can feel everyone noticing her because of the great physique she has out of respect and admiration because gym ppl know how difficult it is to build muscles of that stature. Me and my husband while hanging out with one of this friends talked about this and he his friend asked me why dint I go and tell her she looked great. He said sh...

I switched my work organization😉

First of all thank you for coming here to read my blogs. I haven't posted for a long time now and believe I will be more consistent going forward.  I joined a new organization 2 days back and it feels like the best decision I have taken in a while. I believe we must all keep looking for growth in all aspects of life. Be it career or health or emotional growth. Sometimes you get stuck in a loop of doing things and no matter how much you work hard you are never appreciated or more problems arise. A similar situation happened to me in life where I felt no amount of work is getting me out of this loop.  I had some really crappy work surrounded by tough people to handle. When I decided to switch my job for monetary and other reasons it was very hard to get any interview calls.  The key here is to keep believing. I never believed because market is bad and stuff but my husband kept constantly applying to jobs on my behalf. I had some mental breakdowns due to the work wherein I h...

Assumptions about married women

That's me. And I prefer doing whatever I like be it going on trips or hitting the gym or doing my office work or cooking. 1.  Cooking  -  Assumption that women must cook despite having busy careers. Dont get me wrong. Infact, I love trying out new dishes occasionally. But the phone call I had received from my relative the other day made me question this. They were constantly interested in what Im cooking or if I learnt to cook the dal gravy. I faced a similar incident at the gym. Our trainer asked me to cook more protein rich food for my husband and feed him regularly. Though meant in a humorous way, the underlying meaning kind of made me feel sad. The fact that nobody would say this to a husband made me question. Cooking is a life skill. It is a choice. We can always hire someone. We might develop interest in cooking once we start living on our own. We must also stop judging someone for their food choices. When I say I make protein pancakes or wheat semiya or masala oats...
