‘You know what, a women’s success rate is inversely proportional to the size of her waist.’ said society.
Society indeed became the ultimate decision maker of one’s life and we all started following her as if she was the head of our family.
Behind all those perfect moments we see on social media there are lives that are not so perfect, not so attractive.
The same continuous cycle, we all have been into. School, graduation, masters, few diplomas and you are good to go for a job.
Meanwhile, there has been another community that has evolved who are called as the ‘confused ones’ or who-are-still-exploring. The ones who always quit from what they did in the first place, the ones who have always been consistent in being inconsistent with what they have done till now or what they wanted to be till now.
I have had experiences wherein people changed their lines and always wanted to do what made them happy, getting stuck into something that grows nothing but the money was and never will be someone’s choice against what they actually loved doing.
‘Slim down and you’ll have way more opportunities than you have today’ said my father who is now possessed by the witch called society.
The only moment when I realized that all that have been taught all this while was nothing but a lie. I thought nothing was bigger and better than one’s talent or the ability to work hard for one’s dream.
I come across greatest of the artists for an instance Tanmay Bhatt (AIB fan who has now lost about 3 pounds, as what my snapshot says :P), Bharti Singh (comedian), Smriti Irani (politician), Kirron Kher (actor), Ganesh Acharya (choreographer) who are no less than an inspiration and have worked so hard to make their own life big as they themselves are. The statement is funny, but they know they are the most ‘dope’ people who gave it in the face of the witch, the society.
The theory of looking good first and then getting a good job is something that has never gotten into my head.
Why didn’t they believe me that I may do wonders if I was today working with an organization that I always wanted to work with. Losing onto opportunities just to take a break and start with a fitness regime that does not guarantee me with the same kickass opportunities in the future is sure short the biggest mistake that I have made.
Nothing can be more depressing that to give up what you are good at and do something that could have taken a back seat and all you feel in stuck in such a situation that has no escape but is hampering all you’ve got.
It’s not their fault, but they need to understand what ‘work’ means to a person today.
The amount of competition that will burst in the coming years will not even let you stand anywhere.
‘I think I want to try this and make a video on it’ I said.
‘Its’ 7 already, go to the gym, we’ll talk about this later’ said my possessed mother.
Talent isn’t a better measure of success of this video that it requires more than just looking good in it. :/
I mean ‘lady’, and all I asked myself, Will they ever understand or will they not?
