If there is one thing that I've learnt lately, its that.. EVERYTHING is an experience. Your entire life.. its just nothing but a bag full of experiences. And I don't mean "work ex" or "an adventurous experience" like skydiving or Bungee jumping etc..after which most people say.. "what an experience yaar..feel agayi !" Thats an experience too, sure..but what i'm talking about below is those everyday people which we can tend to(..asymptotic curve maybe? :P ) take for granted or basically, don't count daily life with them as a "RELEVANT EXPERIENCE". So here goes a list !
- Dealing with your parents: BIGGEST experience ever !..especially after a certain age. There are days when they either annoy you or don't understand you or just become a cause of your crazy-pendulum-of-a-mood-swing. I KNOW the reasons behind all the drama.. "generation gap"..or "we just want the best for you"..or "we are passing on our knowledge to you"..etc etc... BUT if it annoys YOU, then its crucial to figure out the best coping strategy (which doesn't hurt anyone) as none of these explanations( & many more like them) work when you're storming to your room/ out of the house in anger..!
My advice: Keep Calm and think of it as an experience in personal dealings (inventing stuff?..dunno :o). It is hands down the LONGEST EXPERIENCE you'll get in dealing with human relations/ crisis management/call-what-you-may..and if you're smart enough, this experience with your folks will help you deal with ALOT of other people in life ahead. SO be THANKFUL to them for that !
REMEMBER THIS and BE HAPPY ! :) |
- Dealing with your friends: Even better..!..cause mostly these humans are of the same age group as you and think alike (alien voice effect). You can share everything with them and one really LEARNS ALOT from friends..So at their most annoying moments...My advice: Think of it as an experience in 'Patience & Tolerance Development' or 'how-to-overlook-dumb-things-of-people-you-love'.
OR MORE!! But they're ADORABLE!! :* |
- Dealing with your enemies: Don't try to have any (enemies)..or hope that its not a mutual feeling between them & you (If its only from your side..its alright ..but then you should learn to forgive/ overlook). This would be more like an experience in 'anger management' or 'ways to ignore people i hate'.. LOL..although one can DEFINITELY do without this kinda experience.. :)
DON'T BE LIKE THIS!! |
- Dealing with your BF/GF/Spouse: Hmmm..this is tricky ground and I cant even count myself as a self-taught expert here... plus valentines day is near!..so Ssshhhhh :p
My Advice: 'Please Read The Offer Document Carefully Before Investing !' You know what I mean !..*wink wink*
LOL!!>> :P |
Thats all from me this morning.. I hope this helps you as a coping strategy to deal with all these AWESOME people in your life. By the way .. MUST NOT put these in ur CV ;) :P
Enjoy!
