Don’t take people too seriously.

We all are growing and figuring out life.

We believe in what people say, we think what the other person says is a carving in stone. However, we should start taking people not seriously because we say whatever is in our mind at that point of time. Even while writing this I have something in my mind. This does not mean I will believe in the same thing always (hypocrisy, you know!). We are human beings and no one has come up with the exact meaning of life. Everyone is just doing something, anything to keep themselves busy. So we should let go what others said and focus on yourself as what you need to do and what you want to do.

I am a student of an engineering college where everyone says Arre, hum to nahi padhte, Arre hume kuchh nahi aata. I was really innocent when I came to this college and started taking people seriously, I thought oh people do not study so I should also not study because we all are students and we are the same but we are not. And not only this people who say Haan padha to tha, aata hai. This category contains the people who when asked some question would answer it in some inappropriate way leading you to believe that they do not know anything.

So, what is the conclusion? Aata hai ke nahi aata? Well, this is what the blog is about that it is totally a matter of time. Perhaps the person saying nahi aata gets a question which they know at that point of time so they will be able to answer that and the same goes for the other category. But in all this ignoring your needs and wants is the biggest mistake, and me blaming any person or even myself for something wrong happened to me is wrong because you never know what situation you will have to face and it is not always because of the outside factors.

“Had this not happened, I would have done that.”

“Had I been awarded two more marks, I could have made it to the top.”

When we use these statements we are actually justifying ourselves to others, don’t worry, we all do this, I do this. You are not alone. ;)

I have a YouTube channel and people who have not talked to me about this think that I aim to earn money and want to be a dancer. Now, this is also a result of taking me too seriously. You getting my point? It is not that one would not want their channel to prosper but then do not judge them on the basis of that.

You should identify your needs and wants and work according to that. In today’s world we have started taking social media also too seriously that if someone does not give you a follow back then it is considered as being offensive. And if you do not follow your friends or family then you are considered to be arrogant. Just imagine the seriousness we show in social media. And all these presumptions of without talking to the other person or without knowing what actually is in the other person’s mind lead to misunderstandings and personal grudges. We really need to get out of this zone to live life to the fullest. We should start learning to let go.

Yes, it is hard not to take people seriously, but not impossible and when you will realise this fact you will stop obsessing over people or thinking anything about them that just does not exist. So believe me if you are pondering over anyone’s saying you are just wasting your time.

Go on and do whatever you want to do (but in discipline)!

;) Let the other people think and get out of Log Kya Kahenge Syndrome.

How could I write such a blog? Because I also take people too seriously. XD. And it is hard even for me to get out of Log Kya Kahenge Syndrome. XD
