The routine!


So how did my morning start? i woke up, made my bed, had my cup of tea, went for a walk, played with 3 lovely puppies (maya- a naughty beagle,shaggy- a sweety lab,minto- a playful pomeraninan) came to the terrace and started writing this, why does my day always starts like this? why a routine?

Not just this, we all take birth, we live/exist and we die, As a kid we go to school and then we go to college, graduate attend interviews until we get a job, then get married, have kids, get ‘settled’ and retire and finally wait for the release of death. Also we eat three times a day, brush one/two times a day, sleep at night, wake up at morning (it is subjective though (wink)) Even in schools we follow a schedule have to cope up with it follow rules, regulations, timetable etc.,don’t we get exhasuted following a routine? I am a person who hates the word ‘routine’ it appears to be boring. My ultimate aim in my life is not to have a routine


Didn’t i miss something that need not be a routine…. yeah! WORK it takes up half our life and most of us end up choosing careers that we don’t like, we might list a number of reasons for this but ultimately we are the ones who get affected, when we do something we don’t like it becomes job but when we do something we like it becomes passion. 

Most of the people who choose to take up careers that they don’t like end up having a routine… they wake up just trying hard to make it through their day and just living for the weekends when they can share their pain with fellow people of similar problem. Is this how life works? are we forced to live with what we don’t like.. sometimes yes, but human brain and heart is a wonder, we sometimes think we don’t like something but when we try we might actually like it. 


Don’t we envy travelers “the wanderlusters”, artists of all kinds they get to live so many lives, but why do we envy them why can’t we live a life we are actually happy and proud about? it need not be a king-size life but a happy life isn’t life’s utmost goal is happiness and peace. We see so many people who are so ambitious and career-oriented that’s because they love what they do and not just money but if they do it only for money they wont last longer.


I don’t mean to say we need to constantly switch jobs, always break rules and be a rebel, no definitely not but sometimes its worth it!. Every job in this world is a good job and has different dimensions just our interest in that matters, if you don’t like what you do you will never be passionate about your career, you will never learn, you will never grow. Career is a source of income but it is not just that it is much more once you actually start doing something you love you will get to know what a career has to offer other than money, that satisfaction is something beyond money. Take vacations, learn new stuffs, do things you love all day, sleep, eat till your heart’s full.

Some does like a routine its not a bad thing as long it makes them happy, but when you are not happy you routine doesn’t make you happy your life becomes stagnant, it is the moment when our lives become still and we just stop living. Never make that happen, do something you love always which makes you happy and no one else need to understand that but when you don’t do that one day you will realize that you hate yourself more than the job. 


Work takes up so much space in our lives. So choose wisely a career must help you grow and not destroy you and your soul. don’t have a routine just have a plan and strategy to be happy in life.

Try harder!

Take that chance!

Follow your dream!

Luck favors the brave. Be brave enough to try new things that you like. Don’t hesitate, take a challenge

it is not going to be easy, but what you reap what you sow!

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to courage!

Don’t die without a few scars!

‘Hard work never fails’ is something we have heard all our lives but as I grew the amount of belief, I had for the phrase reduced. I...
