Four wheels of LIFE
All of us know that, to live a healthier and wealthier life we need to have a proper balance. In modern day of corporate world people have improved their standard of living, but forgotten to improve their standard of life. The corporate culture has also given birth to the several lifestyle disorders like Blood pressure, Diabetes, Hypertension, Cardiac disease, obesity, arthritis, spondylosis, weak immune and many more. The people have become as busy in job as they have forgotten the family life, social life and personal care. Project deadlines, taxes, mortgages, bills, competition, rat race, all have contributed to unbalance the real human life. The communication has improved from several decades but the real connect has disappeared. People do not have time to spend with family, friends and relatives. We are not able to balance our life. Our life also has four wheels like a car. If any of one gets out of order then we can lose control over life, i.e. our life goes unbalanced. When a vehicle goes unbalanced it can collapse or fall anywhere, so it may cause a serious damage to itself, other vehicles on road, pedestrians and the passengers. In the same way if our life goes unbalanced it can demolish us, our family members, colleagues, friends and whole social life. So, we need to maintain a proper balance of all the 4 wheels of life. The four wheels of life are:
1. Personal Life: If you carry stress your health will be out of order and if your health is out of order, you become irritable. If you become irritable your personal life will have serious impact. Not even your personal life but remaining three wheels of life also. “Irritability is a symptom of out of balance life”. “Stability in responses is the symptom of balanced life”.
2. Family life: We live in a fast-pace culture and our parents & kids often feel the weight of that. So the first and foremost priority should be our family. For family we do job we do businesses or any work as per our capacity. Do we really give justice to family? No. What we do? We carry work pressure at home and home pressure at work and what results happens ultimately an unbalanced life. Instead of a healthy atmosphere we create unhealthy atmosphere at home and workplace. We all spend 40-50% time at office because we are bounded by the rules and regulations and needs. We must find a way how to spend quality time with family.
3. Professional life: Professional life is necessary as it gives us income and with that we fulfil our daily needs. But it doesn`t mean that we must spare our whole life in achieving a goal set by the superiors. Profession goal is good but what about our personal goal? We must have our own goal of life. Think upon it? Everyone have some purpose in their life. We should know the purpose of life. As life is too short to live we have to accomplish lot of tasks and fulfil our dreams and expectation of family, friends.
4. Social life: We have forgotten the social life with friends, colleagues and relatives. Don’t we? Agree? We indirectly or directly play an important role in others life and vice versa. The law of attraction plays role everywhere. Everyone has got access to free calls, thanks to technology. But what missed is connect. The real touch, feelings. So, remind yourself of the importance of the others. Connect with friends and plan for outing. Set interest in your social life without any expectations. Surround yourself with positive people. Support others.
Give yourself permission to laugh. Make a difference. Create a real world of humanity. Make a happy and balanced life. We should not strive only for money but we should strive for Money, time , social security and peace. Hope my effort and thoughts help to live someone a balanced life.
