Old enables the new

After I lost a lot of my eye sight during last year November & December I went into a kind of depression & came out of it…God knows how all that happened but there is my family & friends who supported me through those tough times. There was a moment when I decided to stay back at Hyderabad & quit my job if required, but my dad supported & guided me in the right path. I returned to Bangalore but I am a different person all together & after I came back I adopted to a new life style.

I stopped going for a run or a morning walk

Slept more than 8-9 hours on an average.

Stopped giving importance to projects that I dreamed & started.

Little cared about what is happening in outside world.

Kept away from tech & marketing space.

All together I had a wonderful time for my self to be lazy & do nothing, but I think every one has to go through some kind of transformation to change things around them. If I turn back & see I think cutting down a lot of things has really enabled me to focus on what I want & how am I going to achieve it. There is more clarity than before & I knew the path to move forward.

What I learned from this experience is

Don’t force anything in life.

Observe you’re self & keep a thorough notes.

There is no necessary for you to enforce change because it happens with out your knowledge

Welcome that change & don’t be afraid of change.

    its really so heartening to see that quite early in your life you can understand one of the biggest lesson of life about understanding the CHANGE!
    change-its the most inevitable thing!you can accept it,learn from it and move on!
    or resist and spent all your energy stuck in a place!
    all this coming from you has an impact as you are the best example of successful adaptation of change and overcoming the upheavals of life!
    keep it up raghava!
