Work vs. life

We all are living in an era, where "I am busy" is very common to hear. Whether it is a school going primary student or a retired elder of our house.


  There is no doubt that lifestyle changes from time to time, development taking place in each country, moving forward each day.

Have you ever noticed, that every day we are in rush for some or other thing? We all are running every day, every hour, every minute and every second. There is no pause. And that gives us stress. (Tips to manage stress)

But for what?

The definite answer which comes initially to our mind is ' success' for sure. But when do we get that? What is this success related to? Why do we all want success? ( A secret for success you)

What is success meant for?

Well, success has different meanings for each one but there is one similarity in everyone`s view
That is, success for which we all are working day and night, we are in rush every day, every hour, every minute, every second is related to future.

Isn`t it true? Think about it. We all are working for success, for happiness, for welfare, for prosperity but everything is related to the future.
 There is no gain in present. Our present is empty.

We are working day and night for that future, which does not even exists. What exists then?
 The answer is our present.

So, does that mean we should not work, we should not rush?

It is actually partially true. Not wholly. There is always a battle between both the things and at last, work wins.  The interesting part is whether work wins or life we lose something so in return it's we who loses every time. But the point is not that work wins or not. The point is we lost or not. There has to be a balance between both the two i.e work and life. Both are important for us. Then only we will be in benefit.

We should work but we should not rush. We do plan for future and planning is good, one should always be ready to face out every outcome as future is uncertain. But we should not rush behind it blindly, means one should not waste out the present. We won`t even realize along with the present when did we waste out our future too.

Rushing for the future will make us habitual for it. So, even when we get our success we will still be running for some or other thing and that will, of course, won`t let us live up our life.

Everyone knows that life is precious so every moment too. And every person, everything which is there in our lives is important. Sometimes, we make mistakes in prioritizing things. We prioritize more of work than of people, sometimes we even become bias while even prioritizing amongst people.

If a person from some decades ago, is brought to this era he will surely get shocked by looking at this situation. A child is with so much pressure. Its true that, all these are for his bright future but putting too much pressure will affect their mental growth. Not every child is the same. There are some brilliants who can do the thing which an adult won`t be able to do. They won`t feel pressurized but the ones who are not able to handle this will get affected.

Your child needs more of your time. He needs your love and cares more than even his curriculum. Talk to them how they feel, how they are with their classmates? After becoming mature it becomes very difficult to understand a child because there comes the generation gap. Daily conversations, sharing thoughts will make it easier to understand them for a parent. ( Parentism with mutual friendship)

Be careful, while you prioritize your things up, it influences a lot one`s life. Rushing behind anything whether it is work, it is someone very special will not let you live your life.
 At the end, you will leave with a rush and the worries you had your whole life.

In short, what I meant is, we all have limited time, a short life, unlimited desires, unlimited dreams, unlimited achievements to have. We have to manage out everything. Taking out some time to value someone`s presence in your life won`t cost much. Taking out some time for one own self too even won`t cost much. Instead, your life will become easier.

We can`t run away from our problems, but we can create some ways to find the solutions easily. Your family, friends need your time more than your money. It's true that you are working for them only. But for them, your love matters more than your money. You will miss them when they will be far away.

Nothing is permanent not even people. Value them cheer them when they are with you, you will find your life somewhere with them only. There won`t be any need to go in search of life. It`s already there with you. You just have to find it and realize it.
