The Subtle art of living alone
Still I Rise.
The world is created for two types of people. extroverts who enjoy socialising all of the time and introverts who prefer to be alone. In order to thrive in today’s environment, what i have learnt is you must socialise as much you can!
I grew up in an introverted family. In fact, even with my parents i never had much of a connection.
My alone time wasn’t really for me, I remember forcing myself to send text messages to my classmates, my entire teenage was spent ensuring that people like and recognize me. This got worse especially during my college, I failed to focus myself and started to behave like enjoying which i regretted later.
In 2019, everything I did began to fall apart, it nearly tore me apart that i needed therapy sessions to recover. After weeks of hardships, I slowly started to realize that this is not what I wanted.
The art of being alone is about having a good relationship with yourself
Early 2020 lockdown gave me enough time to work on myself and totally be a person that i always wanted. Started to watch Formula 1 for the very first time and it later went to whole category of motorsports, Read blogs about them, Learnt about computers and electronics, travelled to places and i didn’t stop there, I worked till mastering them.
I learned how to be my own friend
Self love is greatest love of all. It barely matters how many friends you have. At the end of the day, it comes down to you! I never in my life thought i will goto the gym, hotels, cinemas, tourists spots all by myself. Some people called me a weirdo but i least cared about them.
Happiness plays a major role in success!
Some people tend to get this wrong. Being successful doesn’t make you happy, at-least for some. Being happy means doing the things you wanted, love and not everyone realises it. I see most people living a life like a Formula 1 racers. Some people are running for their commitments and not for their happiness. In short, do what you love!!
“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”
