I’m basically not a pro in leading a perfect life. My life is as messy as my room, but that’s what life is right? This blog is basically a bit of random advice to lead a confident life (not a perfect one though).
Our life is not a library nor like a museum, where we need to be silent, neat, perfect all the time. And remember,
“HOW MUCH IMPERFECT YOU ARE, THAT MUCH UNIQUE YOU BECOME”.
It is okay to be clumsy and messy. It is okay to be not that ‘cleanliness is next to godliness’ type. It is completely okay. Who cares? (except for mothers, who expect cleanliness more than godliness!)
Privatize and prioritize your life.
We came to this world without our knowledge, without our own permission and we are definitely going to leave this world without our permission too. But the only thing that is in our hand is to live and enjoy every moment in your life.
So why should we waste those precious moments by listening to others opinion, and to live life by other’s suggestions?
I would simply say, Stop listening to others, or wait, let me put this in the better way, stop giving others the key to unlock your life.
Go with the flow !
While thinking about these four words, it makes me remember a moment from my past. I am basically an engineering student, and if you were to ask me, are you really interested in it?
My response to it would be as of any normal student, a BIG NO. But the very next moment, everyone’s next question would be, do you want to pursue medicine then? And the answer is again a NO.
Okay, don’t look at me like you look at a lunatic. But basically, I don’t have an ambition. My interest would simply change day after day. I actually wanted to be a pilot in my early days. It then shifted to a director.
I eagerly wanted to take arts and science in my 11th and 12th. I did a huge amount of homework to convince my parents about that and successfully accomplished too.
But you know, after a few months, I lost interest in that too. Finally, I wanted to become a doctor and took biology as my mainstream in my 11th and 12th. But I eventually realized it was not my cup of tea either.
Fortunately or unfortunately, I landed into a random engineering college. You can already see, how my life is.
But I realized that I was not a person, who keeps a long-mission life goal or who prepares a daily “to-do-list”. I’m not a person who loves destiny but the person who is going to love the process of making a destiny.
I actually loved each moment in my life and to be precise I have nothing to regret to date.
It is not like, life is something where we need to search the meaning, completely NO. Life is a journey, and we are here to take this ride with all ups and downs. And we are going to land at the destination where we are destined to reach.
Showing emotions is completely okay!
‘Be happy always’ . No. Why do we need to have a fake smile when our heart is bleeding already ? we all are humans, we all have four-chambered hearts that beats continuously.
Life is a combination of all emotions. Being in a positive attire is necessary, as it gives us a ray of hope. But not at the cost of faking our emotions.
Show real emotions, don’t faux it simply to make others comfy. Cry whilst you feel too, don’t hassle about the surroundings, as a minimum it takes away all your disappointment. Remember,
“Sometimes, it is okay to be not okay”.
As Steve Jobs said, “Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
It’s always YOU that comes first. YOUR goals and passion come first. “self-love”, heard of these two words?
Are we really practicing this in real life too? You don’t need to answer. You already know it.
And at last, don’t waste your time hearing advice, or advising others. We, people, have different lifestyles, we experience life differently, so it’s completely useless in hearing it anyway!
And at the end of every day, ask yourselves…
‘Are you living your life to the fullest?’
