Normal life, restart

I am reviving my blog.
I hope to keep it going for a while now that I am literally jobless.

On March 2nd I lost my job.
I took time to wrap my head around the news. Yesterday, I watched a TEDx talk on how to handle bad situations in life, in such a way that I don't host a pity party and end up losing the opportunity that the situation served me.

While still chewing on those ideas, my little one came up with this small note -



Ah! Those moments of self realization, especially when sprinkled with innocent love of a 10 year old.
Today on 14th of March, I have decided to make the best use of my time, leave the past behind and aim for a bright, well balanced future with my loved ones.

Lemme hand it over to One Republic now.
The song seriously would pull you out of shit for some time -> Oh, this gotta be a good life

Back to business.
TODO list for the day
1) be a human (yeah read it right, I didn't write humane) to my ageing parents and growing child
2) shooo away depressing thoughts
3) Finish TCP illustrated Vol 1 and start 2

[:EOD updates:]
I almost covered my TODO list.
1) Being human was easy peasy, I just had to remind myself, my family is standing by my side, and is trying to make things easy for me.
2) Negative thoughts still haunts me. Forcing a 'flush' is what I am concentrating on now. The TEDx talk shared by my dear friend on practising emotional hygiene helped. I would suggest you to top it up with the talk on how to practice emotional hygiene.
The talks are here:
 How to practice emotional hygiene | Guy Winch
 The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong | Amy Morin
3) If the first two fall in line, the third should follow too. I finished TCP Vol-1

And I got an incentive - got the call for an interview.

Girl kids are always blessings. They are experts in figuring out what's going on, ain't them?
