Recognition
is something that everybody longs for, a very common human nature. May be
because we are always been told and expected about it even from the time we didn’t
know the meaning of it. Let me share some common scenarios to put my point
forward:
Scenario 1: As infants or
kids, we all were expected to show case whatever our parents taught us like say
the first word you spoke, show if you can walk & showcase what you have learnt
in school, be it ABC, numbers, poems etc. Every parent feels so good about it.
Scenario 2: When we reach
school/college, we are again told that studies are important and so are extra -
circular activities and everybody expects us to be decently good in both and we
also tries our level best for that. I hope you all agree with me.
Scenario 3: When we start
working, we encounter a very common saying “work
hard and party harder” and we tries to perform with best of our
capabilities again for recognition for our work as it’s going to give us
increment and promotions and being equally social at work as well, as that’s also
equally important for the two. Correct me if I am wrong????
Scenario 4: Last but not the
least, is the family and social commitment because “as work is important, so is family”. And as very common human
nature, we always wants to be in good books of most of the people around and
hence we always strive hard to do and manage things to best of our
capabilities. ?????
May
be because we have been brought up this way, we are in most of the cases are
jack of all trades and ends up managing study, work, family etc pretty decently
well in our own ways.
Q. You all must be thinking why am I sharing all this
which you all already know or is this my today’s blog ?
A.
Actually Not!!!
The
blog is about what I am writing now. The outcome of the entire 4 scenarios I discussed
is either TOO MUCH or TOO LESS. By this I mean, because you are jack of all trades
and do so much, there are two things that’s happen with YOU, either you start
taking care of yourself all the more, because you think you deserves it, which
mean excessive work-out at times, too much of food & beverages & bla
bla bla. Or you don’t take care of yourself at all as you think you don’t have
time so no work-out, no time for food etc etc etc…..80% of people falls into
either of the above two scenarios.
And
if you also think you are a part of any of the above 2, its high time you
should change and to INDULGE WITH YOURSELF & I really look forward to hear
from you.
