Having a routine or a monotonous life? - Oh! then in most cases it has to be a career in Corporate Life!
Corporates life in the current generation has become quite monotonous. The changes that takes place in one's life after entering into this eventual profession are many and most of them are not to be proud of. Major change that happen is a feeling of closeness with buddies over the years who were close to you is transformed into acquaintance. If not with all, at least with most of them. The same applies to relatives, as you start missing most of the family functions due to your tight work schedule.
A morning of a corporate usually begins with tranquil atmosphere. But picks up gradually with peers adding pressure on you to get the work done through stringent deadlines(As i term it as). All that is left for the end of day is the energy to get back home and to rest. The worse is if you have to take a public transport or have to travel in the peak hours of the day to get back home. When this is the scenario everyday of the week, usually what happens is all your appointments or interaction with people is shifted to weekends. Slowly over a period of time this weekend is transformed to a fortnight. After few fortnights this fortnight is now monthly or bi-monthly. And next is just interacting when meeting up during a festive time or a accidental meeting somewhere on the roads.
Due to this extreme lifestyle majority of people burn out. Typical Corporates career is as short as a cricketer's career or if not in most cases its as short as a tennis professionals career. The people who survive are people who can transform their lifestyle and can find work-life balance.
Somewhere down the lane people will realise that if the Corporate life goes this way then by the end of few years you will have more bank accounts than friends, more assets than relatives; It might sound exaggerating but its true. People forget socialising and in future when they hang up their boots in their respective career it reflects in feeling lonely. As you do not find right people with whom you can share your feelings. In most cases people have a disarrayed family life just because of this corporate life.
People should introspect themselves and change their lifestyle for betterment. I personally have seen people who are married going home late day in day out. Kids waiting for their dad to arrive home. They do not realise the fun and relaxation that comes with spending quality time with family and especially with kids. As the time goes by they realise to spend those quality time it might be too late as the kids of 3 to 5 years by now would have been grown up youths. People should realise that it's just not money which brings happiness, it might be one of the factors for few, but not just one. There are other factors to bringing happiness to life. One of them is striking the right "Work-Life" balance.
The sole intention of this article is to stress on having proper "Work - Life Balance". If this is taken care off then the rest of the things will look after itself. Work - Life balance can be done in many ways. The best way to look after that would be to socialise and to find things which can make you relaxed is listening to music or any kind of activity like swimming, time spent in workout at a gym, meditation for the mind and the body etc. Getting back to your favourite past times, enjoying a sporting extravaganza, or a three hour movie or any such thing that would relax the mind and free it from tension will do a world of wonder.
Life is Beautiful. Make it Wonderful by proper Work-Life Balance.
