POSITIVITY AND PLANNING MAKE A GOOD LIFE

Getting bored once in a while is quite normal. But getting into such a mood on a daily basis proves that you could be moving away from your life’s mission.

The most important reason why you get bored is that you are confused as a result of not adopting the basic art of living. You have may have become aimless and rudderless. Such people find themselves under great distress and negativity takes over their thinking and behaviour.

In such times, we must remember to plan ahead and work hard.

American author John C Maxwell says: “Life can be very boring if you don’t put some effort into it.” That means it is important that you have to have definite and positive plans on a daily basis, both, short term and long term ones as well.

Life has to be a well-planned journey in which every movement should stand for something good in your mission.

Once that is in place, whatever your other plans may be; visiting a friend, taking a walk and enjoying the bounties of nature or even getting busy in the kitchen can keep you satisfied and happy.

One of my favourite sayings is that your art of living should have an element of your ‘kitchen role’ that keeps you so busy as if you were in a meditative trance, oblivious of all the ills surroundin­g you. Life is meant to be enjoyed after all.
