Living life on own terms

I am noting my observations, also not telling anything new or even old. There are a few traits a person should have to live. ( I am not saying about successful or happy life!) Neither I am saying one should follow an ideal/ idol / faith/ religion!Then the question is what is that I am talking about?

I am trying to define few words around life that we have to live.

1. Faith : In your abilities, knowledge, ethics
2. Duty : Moral , assigned, obligatory duties. (In all relationships you are bound by duties in life!)
3. Money : Important to live, just live. Need to earn enough to live today, tomorrow and keep earning till you breath
4. Work : Different than duty (in my opinion) . Work to cook, to eat, to learn, to breath , to live life (on whatever terms and conditions apply)
5. Terms : every relationship we are in (moral, immoral, financial / business) works on some terms. (Nowadays even love works on terms!!!)
6. Emotions : Most comprehensive term to define (may take pages/rims to define) Manage emotions at each second you breath. ( a bad / good but necessity**) whole world is an interplay of emotions. No sermon on it. You can’t remain “ steadfast” (Sthipradnya”) All emotions must be expressed, at proper time, proper place, most importantly in proper words / gestures / expressions.
7. Feedback : Wondering why this control system term is entering in essay on life. It is all about feedback. If we don’t appreciate life and give a feedback to self, our life becomes “ Laissez-faire” (“leave alone” which no one can except GOD).? Everyone wants feedback, all relationships, businesses, systems and nature. In order to live, the topic of our essay , we to “ACT’ on feedback. How to ACT? And not to “REACT” is a million dollar question!! Each negative feedback should help us to live better than earlier but we in turn live worser after receiving it. In order to work on negative feedback , we need to work on point 1 to 6 religiously. In true sense and spirit. Each positive feedback help us to live better life, we feel. But positive feedback unstabilizes the system (mind especially!!) So don’t get elated on positive feedback, just it with a bow and move on to live life….

Live life on your own terms!
