TAKING IT SLOWLY..

We are surrounded with events and things that demand our attention. With the development of time this pressure has manifolded many times. The result ? Hypertension among youths. Heart attacks occurring to 10 year olds. Among many others.

It is basic human tendency to seek action. But human minds have limitations as well. There have been numerous studies that show that multitasking is a myth and that it has its toll on the work and health as well. All these things that seek one's attention are usually overwhelming and forces one to take it all in one go. This propels multi tasking and results into neglect and faults in the outcome.

Our education system has been designed to make all entities function equally. It does not take into account that each individual is different. The pace at which each person responds to tasks varies. As a result people are mostly lacking life skills. They almost never know the trick to handle tasks and pressure generated due to task loads. Thus, we can assume that the general masses are mostly incapable to cope with the trends that this new era brings with it. The evidences in support of this are evident.

This is not something that is not discussed often. There are awareness programmes being conducted in educational institutions. The common thing among these programs is that they treat this as a disease and try to heal the one suffering through counselling. A change in ideology is needed to bring visible changes. The youth should be made to acknowledge the changing scenario and provided with the skills to handle the same.

The demand for our attention is not going to decrease, rather the opposite of this is eminent. The secret is to Take It Slowly. Let the reality seek in. Give time to plan and prioritise the tasks at hand and then proceed. Never should we try to multi task because it is never fruitful.

Some tasks can be overwhelming but a mind well trained to contain these feelings is the one that can make it through. A well trained mind will find ways to better manipulate time and ways to automate tasks taking away unnecessary time. Time is the most valuable asset and it should be spent wisely.


Taking things slowly can solve half the problems by itself and the rest is just our action which can do the ultimate justice. Take the days one at a time and tasks too in the same way. This ancient wisdom is a life lesson and learning it is a life skill which we all need. Things are gonna get more complex. Ideal surrounding is soon going to vanish. It is high time to gain as much skills and wisdom as we can. There are many such skills and indeed this is an important one. Learn it and adopt it as a life style and never forget to take it all slowly in the process.. 

CONNECTING THE DOTS..

Moving forward is the essence of living. There is no place for stagnant mindset in this fast changing world. Same is true for our actions. We need to level up ourselves to keep up with the trend that is always very dynamic. These actions, however small they may seem, have deep impacts in the long run. We all have known about the existence of multiple dimensions. They all are similar but the smallest of the choices make them different. Thus we have been well taught about the importance of actions by space thriller movies like Interstellar.

In our daily life we come across many stimuli and situations. For the stimulus we react as per our subconscious mind. The situations are important because our conscious mind has to decide the future action. In such cases there are many possible choices but we choose one as per our knowledge, intuition, suggestion etc. At that very moment the problem is solved and we are liberated. But the impact of our choice is seen much later on in time. Every possible solution has its own long term implications. Choices made keeping in mind the long term implications are always the best choices. But in reality we can often predict the long term path of our action. Thus we almost every time have blind solutions based on our intuition. Well, many may argue that intuition is the guiding light of the angels but we can know that only when that particular decision turns out to be something heavenly.

Everyone who is reading this blog has had reached a certain position in life. If they look back and concentrate on their past actions and find that one particular choice which had played the largest role is moulding them as they are today. We call them turning points of life. These turning points are nothing but problem solution situations. The solution if results into something good in the long term we keep them as examples. But if they turned out to be negative in long run, we regret. Past cannot be changed. It is also true that in future we will have to face many such life changing problems and find a feasible solution. We will never be sure of the long term implications. But what we can do is take a well informed decision. Even if that turns out to be bad in the long run, we should have the courage to decide. Courage to take action and courage to take responsibility if it goes south are important life skills. These skills can never be taught. They are embedded in the personality and moulded by life itself.

Everything in our life has been because of our choices. The humans have become the supreme creatures on this planet because they have been gifted with higher intellect which enable them to innovate and take informed decisions to change their life. We all have done it. We are alive because we are doing it this very moment. Connecting the dots by looking back reveals to us the larger picture which we often neglect while going on with our daily lives.  Looking back makes us humble because we get to face the reality. The stars who loose themselves in the stardom can look back on to their struggling days. In those days they will find their turning point moments. This very realisation that hard work pays its rewards will be enough for anyone to remain grounded and keep their head down. However busy our lives may seem, we must look back and find our moment. The moment that defines who we are. Being able to connect the dots is a super power because we get transformed into our higher self as well as gain wisdom for life from life itself..
