When is the right to quit.

We hear that if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.  Well, how long before you feel that you can absolutely not stand the heat? For how long should you hold on to or rather pursue your hobbies, pet project, job, or relationship before you decide to quit and move to something else? I guess one will never know. So maybe go with your gut feeling cos whatever you choose, you cannot escape those pangs in the heart and that lonely feeling.

Avoiding distractions

 All this while, I had been vowing to keep away from phone, internet, Instagram, what's app and what now. I set a target of staying away from these vices for 8 hours and instead, I spent more than those hours on distractions. Its like an addiction. More you avoid, more it attracts. So today instead I vowed that for next two hours, I am going to finish some tasks. Made some list. Voila. It worked. I was able to keep away from Internet.  So the lesson learnt is, focus your energy on what needs to be done and you will do better instead of focussing on what we need to avoid. Wow. Its that simple but it needs lot of screwing up before you arrive here. May the journey begin.
