Ultimate Happiness!!
Right now, I am in the capital of the country, Dhaka. Settled here for some positive changes, the professional ones. Personally, I was happy in my hometown but life is getting harder and the time is ticking faster than ever, so I had to make this choice, a hard one for sure. In the past, I used to see this city as a city of soulless spirits who are like robots, living to survive somehow. During the daytime, on the roads, there are some in air-conditioned private cars, on the other hand, there are plenty struggling hard to get onto the local bus that doesn’t even have an inch to stand let alone sit.
This is life, people are insanely focused on their professional lives to fulfill the checkboxes in their personal lives. Whether you admit it or not, without success in professional life things get super messy on the personal. People are grinding their lives on and on to fulfill their needs.
But again, when you have given me the scope to choose between professional success or personal happiness I would go for personal happiness without any second thoughts. Yeah, personal happiness!
What is professional success meant for? For wealth, comfort, name & fame, luxury, and whatnot? What's the core motive behind these? To be happy! Personal happiness. Hell yeah, I am willing to trade professional downfall even if I am happy in my personal life. Can't risk my 16 hours for the sake of 8 hours. The month-end salary goes for personal well-being, right? Not back in the professional atmosphere.
Everything I do, there is always a time when I come back exhausted, stay on my bed take a deep breath and look for relief, look for satisfaction, for happiness. No matter how stressful or hectic the day was, if it can't make me happy then what's the use of taking so much trouble? Literally nothing!
So yeah, personal happiness, when someone is happy in his personal life, I don't think the professional life would be able to do much harm. The reverse one is deadly, professional success can't ensure happiness in personal life if luck doesn’t favor. You can have a cash cow while you are lying in the hospital bed. It's professional success that pays the bill, not something to be happy about. I don't want anything like that. I want happiness, now how it's coming doesn’t matter much to me as unethical things aren't my cup of tea as well.
To be honest, my professional life is fu**ed up as well as the personal one and I am prioritising more on my personal one. Badly in need of my personal happiness, I see them coming.
Have a great day,
Take Care!!
I hope your situation gets sorted and you find your happiness. I may relate a bit as I am also in search of happiness.
Thanks a lot for the warm whishes.
