The 3 AM People

It has again been a long break since Covid Pandemic Erupted in 2020, and we all in spare times started  honing our hidden skills and talent. I too wrote few blogs and began my journey into the writing arena. My small cousin sister like half the my age, is now known as Author  Priyanka Khetawat. It makes me think that when a small kid can write, why cannot I? It also reminds me of my school days, where being an average student in Language Subject (Nepali), how one of my Nepali Language Teacher, went out of way and helped not only me but all other classmates to improve our language skills (He recommended a regular reading of novels, books and just anything to expand the horizon) and I did exactly that, buying some books and started reading. Then came the Breakthrough within few months, in next terminal exams, I started thinking/Imagining and started writing slowly on my own rather than Mugging Up and the results were apparent, I started writing very layman's and in a very simple way. My teacher not only motivated me, but played a very role in expanding my Horizons. Till this day, I really appreciate Him Koshraj Neupane Sir. I wish that every student gets a mentor like him. 

The Post display picture is about 3 am people. They are different. I have decided to put my 3 am thoughts on my blog all again.

Hope this one , today's 3 am thoughts , you all might appreciate.

"There is growth, there is progress and there is success. All these are different things. The outcome varies, the target audience varies and benefits varies. Majority say more than 90% people on this planet are stuck in growth phobia, the remaining percentage are stuck in progress, and then the remaining less than 0.01% are the ones whose success has moved this planet ahead. It is their success that had made each and every growth and progress meaningful!! The world needs to understand this simple yet the most complex ecosystem. Both growth and progress are selfish and only Success is without any selfishness done as if its a service by a devotee to his god, and that's the level of dedication one needs for success. If the spirit needs to be high , it has to be as high as this.

One evening a Swamiji of Sri Ramakrishna Mutt was addressing the participants on the concept of work culture ........

One of the participants asked the following question to the Swamiji : 'I am a senior manager of Materials Department and I joined an organization 25 years ago as an Engineer Trainee and over the last 25 years I have gone through every experience in the organization and I am now the senior manager looking after the material function independently. During the initial part of my career, the job was very challenging and interesting. Every day was exciting and I looked forward to each day  with lot of interest. However, all those exciting days are gone since I do not find my job any more interesting because there is nothing new in my job. As I have seen and handled every conceivable situation there is no more challenges in my work. I am now feeling bored because I am doing a  routine job. However, Swamiji, I am living in the same house for over forty years, I am the son for the same parents for over forty five years, I am the  father for the same children for the past ten years and the husband for the same lady for the past twenty years. In these personal roles I do not feel bored and the passage of time has not taken away the zeal from me. Please tell me why I am bored of the  routine in the office and not in the house ?' This was a very interesting question and we were all very anxious and curious to know what the Swamiji had to say ! ! The response from him was very interesting and convincing. He asked the executive the question :   'Please tell me for whom does your Mother cook ?' The executive replied that obviously the mother cooks for others. Then the Swamiji said that the mother 'Serves' others and because of this service mindedness, she is not feeling tired or bored. But in an  office, we 'Work' and not 'Serve'.

Anything we consider, as service will not make us feel bored.

That is the difference between Serving and Working. He asked the executive to consider his work as service and not merely a work ! ! This was a very interesting analysis ! ! Whenever you put a larger context around your work and see a broader meaning for your work, you will take interest in your work. An awareness of larger purpose of your job and an appreciation of its importance will make a very big difference in your internal energy.

You should believe that you are here for a purpose and should believe in the spiritual context of your role.
