Judgy😒


In school me and my friends were fairly good in studies and used to wonder why others dint study well. We never wanted to know what made them that way but just used to think the only thing in a students life is to study and if the person doesn’t do it well he/she is practically doing nothing good.  

Now when I interact with people I understand each one lives a different life and each one has different challenges to face. Few had family issues, few were in charge of cooking at home and taking care of siblings since their mom left to work, few spent their weekends doing lot of household work and spent remaining time studying, few came from other schools and found it hard to adjust, few were introverts so dint ask doubts in topics they dint understand, few were good in sports and had different talents. 

We are often so quick to judge a person without knowing anything about them. Everyone has challenges to face in different forms in life. After knowing all of it as an adult I actually felt bad that I was blinded by my immature thoughts back then. The main reason was the way teachers treated the students who dint study well. They just used to punish them by giving impositions or making them stand outside the class and I dint want to be treated that way. I have never come across any staff who would call their students to understand the trouble they had in studying except in movies (Taare zameen par :P).  If anyone pursues a teaching career or if you guys have kids or in the future I hope we teach them good things as in not to judge a person based on studies.  
U guys can let me know or comment below and tell me what you judged about someone and realized it later.

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...

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...

Consumerism - Minimalism (Part - 2)

  Well let's first understand this term consumerism. It means encouraging the consumption of goods and services as a never ending cycle. So in simple words we the people are consumers who will constantly be bombarded with ads promoting that we need certain things to increase our standard of living.  What's wrong in increasing the standard of living? Let's be honest there's nothing wrong. It is good to get stuff that ease our lives like mixer and grind instead of the old ways of grinding spices, television for entertainment, mobile phone for communication, vehicle for travelling. So where does the problem arise? It arrises when we start buying more stuff than we actually need just because we saw a ad saying the existing one is not good. We will always find something better coming up in the market each day. It has become a way of life.  Most of the time the products are purposefully made so fragile that we end up replacing them. Eg: The glass back on mobile phones are goo...
