Of late, an increasing desire to deliver no matter what happens, coupled with the compulsion to fulfil targets, keep deadlines and meet demands is making the hard pressed urbanite walk on high tension wires!
Certain professions can aggravate a latent problem in a person.
When the outcome of one’s work is dependent on factors not directly under one’s control, there is frustration and stress. ( that’s my situation I’m facing right now)
The more the number of variables, the more the possibility of anxiety and stress- related disorders. There is no joy in life.
In professions where there are goals to follow and targets to attain, if one is unable to cope with the demands, one often succumbs to the pressure. .( that’s another situation I’m in )
Variables like more and more people joining at the same level and market competition, are not under one’s control.
Life is dependent and also interdependent. In groups, we learn to live and experience its various tenets and facets.
Knowing your abilities and needs is important. Being smart alone is not enough. There are many smart people around but there is no tolerance, patience or flexibility.
These are qualities that can take one far. Most important is that we should enjoy doing whatever we are doing now.

Thought for reflection:
Always pay attention, and there will be no tension. You will remain light in the face of problems.
