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 she would feel really happy about it.
Next day I walked up to her and told her "Hi. You have a great physique and I admire you."  Her face lit up and she said thanks and we talked for few mins.
She said she has been hitting the gym for 9 years😲. I was shocked. I asked her "what's your age if you don't mind ?". She looked 25 to me. She told me she is 29. She asked me when I started gymming. I told her it's 2.5 years and I had a 1-2 months gaps in between. 

She said "It takes time and be consistent you will get there". One thing she said stuck with me. She said "I actually enjoy working out. I do it whenever I get free time. It's kind of like a hobby."

I was like wow and told her that's great and then we eventually ended the conversation. One thing I understood is that sudden burst of motivation, trying to be consistent and disciplined doesn't matter unless you really want to do something and enjoying doing it.

I love a organised space. I don't watch videos to motivate me to keep my space tidy. I just do it on autopilot. Same thing goes to watering my plants. It just happens because I happen to feel good after doing these things. If one likes a fitter body one must automatically make healthier food choices and do things to reach there.

Unless you enjoy the process you can't be consistent enough to get the results. I saw a John Abraham interview with beer biceps where he said he trains hard everyday from past 28 years and he wants to die in a 6 pack abs. You can't be this consistent unless you enjoy the process of working out at the gym.

I learnt that we all need to enjoy the process and not the end results alone. So lets work towards things we really want and enjoy the process💕

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...

Dealing with Anger😈

Being angry is something that I do most of the time especially on my family because I never react at work or anywhere else as much as I feel free to do it at home. The main victim of my anger is my younger sister. It’s also true that she irritates me most of the time but she is kind of curious of things I do and tries to lookout to me to help her and I just scream and send her away. We also tend to do it with our mom’s more frequently. She asks us if we had lunch or dinner and we end up screaming at her asking her not to disturb because we are too busy in something which might not be that important than eating on time. Always think for a minute before you scream or be rude to someone because it’s not their fault to come and talk to you so that you show your frustration on them. Relax and enjoy things while doing them because having a cool mind gets the best out of you in any situation rather than a panicking person.

Read this if you feel sick and unwell all the time..

  This post is just to change your narrative on health if you have been feeling sick or being called a sick person all the time. I would like to explain this using my life story. I have been the most adventure loving fun person I know throughout my life but I stopped believing this narrative and started feeling sick and lazy and it all started during the onset of covid. If you would have known me before this phase you would have rarely seen me sick. I would have cried a few times because of teen life crisis but it had nothing to do with my health. Even on family trips to hills I have never felt nauseated. During the 8 months of being a fresher I had lot of freedom and money to buy and eat things I want and there were times I used to eat 2 small size pizzas around 10:30 pm. It dint do anything to me but the results showed up during locked down where I gained around 8 kgs. I had work for the entire day during this fresher phase and my onset of frequent headaches started. This is when...
