Why so serious??

Why so serious???

The modern man has numerous problems but most of them have been self cultivated in which we neither have control , nor is a matter of our concern directly, still we like to feed on them and cherish the agony of their existence..

For example:

• Slump in Indian economy ,
• Hike in Petrol prices 
•  The daily soap heroine being tortured,
• Scoring a mark less in exam
• The girl next door didn't accept your friend request
• Uski saree meri saree se safed kaise??(Why her robe is whiter than mine??)

Everybody likes to shape his life for better and while doing so problems exist like a game of crossword to find a solution but  there are certain trifle ones whom if we ignore can help us to focus on bigger ones and make us live more freely .

Ok lets play a game and I request you to list down all the problems that you faced in last one year..

How many do you remember??

1..

2..

3..

Well I don’t think most of us would even touch the double figure .But are these the only problems that gave you wrinkles and theft your smile. If you can’t even remember them, surely they are not much of your concern, so why worry about them?? So we are not that burdened as we think and just taking life a little more seriously than actually it is.

Wayne dyer  once said:- "It makes no sense to worry about things you have no control over because there's nothing you can do about them, and why worry about things you do control? The activity of worrying keeps you immobilized."

So next time you worry about something, just perform a simple test designed by one of the most budding psychologist* of our time.

ask your self following questions

           1.Do I have control over it?
           2.Does it really bother me?

          3.Will I worry about it an year later?

          4.Is there no way out of this?

          5Am I that wicked and stupid that no one will help me solve this?

          6.Has god been unfair at giving me these problems??( not applicable for atheists)

If the answers are in negative, then don’t give a damn and just take the required action to solve them. And if the answers are in positive, then give yourself a break and do the activity that gives you the most pleasure. After doing so, you will feel relaxed and will have the strength to fight the existing ones.

Written with the hope to see a happier world!!
