Stop this guilt feeling

How do your start your day if you are married, working, or both? The obvious answer behind it is framing or managing the time schedule for the day. The list goes like what needs to be packed in for the lunch today for your husband or kids, paying attention towards your parents, fixing a get together with friends or else they will be angry, helping a colleague, doing extra work in the job to impress the boss, etc. There are a hell lot of things that needs to be done in a day that has not been mentioned in this list. Various jobs have been pulling you apart but in the midst of all, where are you?

Do you actually have time for yourself? Were you the same when you were in college? Just try to recall those days when you missed out lectures because you wanted to shop for the date with your boyfriend, or the times you have passed just calling your friends over at home and talking to them till your eyes finally gave up. What about those singing competitions that you used to have in your hostel and those grumpy looks of your neighbor the next day as you spoiled her sleep. Life has changed a lot. Right?

Yes and many of you would agree and give out this statement that times are never the same. I agree but what about giving time to yourself and when you do so, here comes the feeling- ‘I have wasted my time playing piano or dancing at my favorite number, I could have utilized this time better.’ Pursuing your hobby or spending some time with yourself is not a crime; it gives a feeling that-‘Yes, besides this, even I am somebody with a different identity of my own.’

Can’t you just sit back and listen to your favorite number without holding a guilty feeling or just go to spas to relieve yourself. Spending some time with yourself just don’t charge you up but also helps you vent out negative feelings about everything. It creates a positive environment around you and makes you happy thereby changing your perspective about a lot many things. Besides, it also helps you to feel more younger and charming and even gives courage to tackle with problems pleasantly. Just try dropping down a not-so-important work from your list, without having this guilty feeling of spending a time with yourself. I bet you will love this change.
