Why? (Existential crisis)

I've been caught with my most mortal fear again this morning, existential crisis. Why am I doing anything I am doing? Why am I alive? Why should I get out of bed? - I know the world can go on without me, because everyone is replaceable, then why I should bother? Nothing is essential in front of the cosmos. I'm a speck of dirt in the cosmos and us humans define our own meaning to things, people, circumstances, hence everything is subjective.

Based on the feedback I've got, I've been underperforming at work, not meeting my objectives, basically loosing and I hate losing. I want to win because those are the moments which makes me feel alive. I was doing everything in my power to win, there were some weaknesses, but I didn't know they were that significant until I failed.

In life, you get the strength or motivation to go through your most difficult times because of some form of motives. It can be fear or love, I did what I did before because I loved doing it, I enjoyed the struggle, I was trying to enjoy the battle at work, but I wasn't fulfilled. I love problem-solving, I love technology, I love analytics, I love winning as a team, I love providing direction in uncharted territory, I love creating plans or structures, but still something was lacking... what was it, I don't know. I believe one of the reasons I missed the mark was my heart was not in it, nowadays I really don't know where my heart is, It's pretty lost.

What do you love Saaransh? What do you long for? My north star has been doing well in any organisation/structure I've been put in. My north star has been building my social enterprise to help underprivileged groups. My north star has been making things. My north star has been being creative. My north star has been to improve my understanding of the world. My north star has been to be improving continuously. My north star has been winning.

The Good Boy Image.

Sure you can get a ‘A’ with this, Sure you can have good rapport with old folks with this and sure you would be an example for small children with this. But you know what you can’t get...Answer- A hot chick. I am going to tell you a story. Once upon a time there lived a boy, let’s call him…I don’t know…‘boy’…he was a good boy and always have been. Simple, no show off, caring, sensitive, loving, kind, respected girls…you got the idea naa… Now the story goes like this , there were girls around him who use to play with him, tease him, make fun of him, flirt with him(ya this happens with good boys only)…he use to reciprocate but in a very calm , good and noble manner, but he had a curse due to this ‘good boy image’ he can’t get all feely- feely with girls, can’t have a girlfriend as he was worried what his parents/teachers think if they got to know about it(stupid right?), and he has seen all the ‘stud’ types in the class were the one who really gets the girl . But this ...

The Cat and Dog world….

Note: I had always wondered what life is on the other side of the wall; well it’s pretty much the same… I, since childhood had a certain fear…of telling a girl that I liked her (the wall)…but on one fine day (or should I say night)…3:19am to be precise, message someone… ”awake?”… And then ‘IT’ happened… (Worst part- I wasn’t drunk) You must be probably wondering…what the hell! Does this has to do with the name of the topic…trust me, getting there…ok let’s see some characteristics of cats and dogs… CATS - are considered to be -   1.) Cute                                                  2.) Indifferent to others feelings (doesn’t get emotionally attached)                 ...

Things that Drive You...it's a motivational paper

What can make you jump right now? or to get up and run a mile?   or make you get serious in studies? or can make you win a losing game? What is the force which can make you cross the toughest of obstacles? Its motivation, motivation gives you determination, dedication, right set of mind and the power to take your actions. My observation has been that motivation comes from four emotions. The emotions of love, anger, peace and fear. Let me explain them one by one. Love   The numerous examples of romantic stories in which the lovers goes beyond limits to find their love, the love for science & curiosity which made so many discoveries & innovations possible. Love is towards thing which you love doing & can do it continuously without getting tired. It’s your passion and your need, love is the force which makes you move towards your goals with full excitement and enthusiasm.   The simplest way that I can put it is “you do a thing because you love it”. It can b...
