Mera number bhi aayega


I have been a proponent of the theory of relativity only if its used in the right way in life – i.e. to motivate yourself (http://unknownrahul.blogspot.in/2011/04/theory-of-relativity.html). Things go wrong if you start treating it in a negative way. Things go worse if you let it affect you. Then there is no way out.

No matter how much I believe in this, in the end sometimes I also do get affected by this. Sometimes, it makes me wonder what is it which is not letting me realize my potential whilst the world is moving ahead than me. Sometimes it do make me feel jealous of others. Sometimes it makes me irritated and frustrated. A few times it makes me cry too.

It is here where I think I start to lose the plot and the situation and life takes a u-turn. Normally most of the times its my family and close friends who come to rescue but strangely I guess I have found one more rescuer, and very strangely its my own blog, the random thoughts which I wrote couple of years back. 

Reading the old posts remind me about what I stood for in the past , what I wanted to achieve in my life and most importantly how I wanted to walk the path. I guess today is the first time I actually have found the real purpose of what made me start blogging and how it will remain a part of my life till the last day.

P.S. http://unknownrahul.blogspot.in/2011/03/happiness.html made me understand and write this post.

The balance in life

I think we all struggle with this – the right balance in life. We all struggle to juggle between our professional and personal life. You want to be there in both – but only a few are lucky to have that. Rest just keep on trying to keep the balance.
Most of the times, your mind is on the professional side but your heart is on the other. It’s a constant fight – of what to do next. Should I make an effort, should I make a compromise or should I leave it all and do what the heart wants. Or should I listen to my mind and give everything more time.

I remember the first time I faced this situation was as expected the famous 2008-09 debacle. Then I listened to my heart, I think one of the most courageous decisions I ever took in my life and the most correct one too. It was an inevitable situation. Thinking of that situation is enough to send shivers down my spine. But that was a one off situation which I hope I never face again.



I think sometimes a compromise is the right solution for some time. A drastic step might not help – you might feel good for a day or a month or a year but later on you might end up regretting it for life. The best way out is to strive for the best, do all the hard work to get the right balance and a better future both personally and professionally. In the end, if you actually put in the efforts to get the right balance between both, you will definitely succeed.

Why am I writing this all, what am I referring to, even I don’t know. I guess may be am beginning to feel the side effects of lack of balance in life or may be it’s a cluttered mind creation. Who knows….
