12. Do Not Take Life Seriously...& Other Things to Remember
This was not on the list, but it had to include, due to few disturbing news. To be honest we all go through ups and downs, success and failure, good time and Bad time, that’s a part and parcel of life. Direct to the point no running around the bush, 5 things before start on any work both professional and Personal
Things to Always to remember :
First and Foremost
Do not take your life seriously : This is the first and most important point. This does not mean to just sit at home, and to take things granted but to take things and life easy. One has to take career, relationship things seriously, but not so seriously that if things does not happen as expected then it kills you or take you in darkness. If it’s work good, if it doesn’t then too fine. I guarantee you there are lot more arseholes in this world surviving and successful. You will also find it one day
Do not be control Freak : You can’t control anything in this world, no single thing, you cant even control your emotions, your mind, you thoughts neither you can control your hair growth, nail growth. Then why so control freak, leave it, just supervise it, just see that it does not lose the track, or go out of way. When You try to control, and things get out of control it leads to helplessness adding to stressed. Most of the Coaches also suggests the same. You are here to live and experience this world not to control other things.
Sincere Efforts : You have to put in your sincere efforts in whatever you do, if it happens it good, if not, then try again. If still not happening its fine take someone’s help, still not, move on … Later when you think that you are ready give it a try. If fine missing a deadline, it fine having a Maruti 800, or a bike, or even a share rickshaw its fine. Everything in the world has meaning unless and until you are their in this word and if you not in this world everything is meaningless
Do not Curse yourself : When things goes wrong we curse and shout on our self. How come I be so dumb, I am a born idiot etc etc. You have to stand by yourself, even if the world is not. If the world use a cuss world, but you should not use it for yourself. Identify your mistake and correct it, that its, using such work will not be of any help it will only create internal anger and your mind is registering it all.
NO High Expectation : Declare it to world and to you, No high expectations please, will put in sincere efforts and time, will try for the best, but no high expectation. Even if a Chef makes the most exotic dish in a restaurant, he eats the same Dal Rice at home. No high expectation from family. High expectation creates unwanted publicity and then create stress, and if the things are not up to the mark creates failure. You would also rank a sequel of any movie average than the first part, coz of high expectation, that you have set for yourself, leading to dissatisfaction.
