The Struggle is Real
Things are not working the way I want
This post is in continuation to my previous blog.
It’s 3rd of July 10:00 pm and writing my daily blog, a task that I have assigned myself to analyze the journey to my dreams.
I woke up as usual 6'o clock, and after doing my morning routine I was at work desk by 7:30 am, I was having certain things on my to-do list for the day. I started with solving the Leetcode July challenge, I did it successfully and created story for that on medium.
By 9:00 am I was totally free and was ready for my other tasks including office work and solving 10 data structure questions. I solved a few Data Structure questions not exactly 10, and then just read somewhere on the social networking sites about the book “Leaders Eat Last”. Keeping all other tasks aside, I started reading this book, although it is a good book to read still, I was not meant to do this, I have other important tasks which were pending and suddenly I realized the day is almost over. And I am left with pending tasks now, which will be added to tomorrow’s tasks list and again a sense of burden, the pressure of not completing things on time, this time the problem was not with the goal, not even time, I was having enough time to complete my tasks, but I wasted it in reading the book which was not an important task and can be done any day. Because of this distraction, I wasn’t able to complete my tasks. Again I haven’t felt that sense of achievement. I am waiting for it, but in this way, I can never achieve anything. I have one fixed goal, ie. I have to prepare for interviews and I should not think anything else till the goal is achieved.
This way things are not going to work, I have to follow discipline only then something can happen otherwise, I will always be prone to failures, and I will make it my destiny. I have to stay away from distractions and keep reminding myself of the goal. I am happy at least I am writing from last 3 days continuously, It gives me a sense of achievement, but this is not my ultimate goal. My ultimate goal for writing daily blogs is to achieve my dreams which I definitely will.
By the way, I also wrote about the book I read today, although haven’t completed it yet. I have added a few lines and learnings from the book.
