Being Adaptable

''We cannot direct the wind but we can adjust the sails''- Dolly Parton


Life is an amalgamation of unforeseen events and unpredictable characters. Being a mentally strong person means navigating through all the unpredictable stuff and finding your way out. I know it sounds way easy and effortless than it actually is but I assure it is worth the hustle once you commit to it.


Do you really think things are always going to be the way you desired? If no, then what should be the mindset of tackling those issues?. Being adaptable means to adjust yourself in the most strenuous situations. It means to sieve through the most onerous times by accepting your fate. You cannot be adaptable if you are a whiny person who loves to complain about everyone and everything. 


Think of it this way. Being adaptable means that  you are invincible. Since you can ace through the most gruesome situation, it means you are mentally strong and mould yourself into unique situations and scenarios.  It also assists you in professional situations when you have to pretend according to the given situation. 

Easier said than done, I guess developing this habit is a lifelong struggle. I am not stating one should pretend to be comfortable all the time. However. managing those emotions is the key to success in  my opinion.  Adaptable people possess elastic like energy , a willingness to bend and break habits and to challenge themselves when the circumstances change.


do you agree with me?

Freedom of Speech and Rudeness

 The world values opinionated people. People with substance, people who do not fret about being politically correct and people who stand their ground despite all the opposition. However, the same world refutes people who are rude and impolite. I often wonder where does a person draw the line?. How do we strike the perfect balance between being strong and substantial but not intimidating. Let us all classify what rudeness means. It is saying or doing something which hurts the feelings of others and can be detrimental to their mental health. It is being self deluded and dismissing others as inferior to yourself. It is quite common that people justify their indecent speech as being ''blunt'' and ''straightforward''. There is no amount of tact in their speech. Well I am here to burst your bubble by saying that you can be honest while maintaining a certain degree of diplomacy. It is inexcusable to say whatever you have in your mind before examining it.

Golden Hours: My favourite Drama ''Daam''

Image
Have you been noticing how our dramas have become regressive and downright irritating? Personally, I think television is releasing the same old repetitive junk. However, a drama serial released in 2010 named "Daam" defied all norms. How? You may ask. It features a simple yet moralistic storyline and developed characters who are going to win your hearts for sure. Directed by Mehreen Jabbar and penned down by Umera Ahmed, I think this drama is a model for drama makers today. People like you and me have no interest in the annoying and archaic "mother-in-law against daughter in law" drama. We wish to see something we can connect with. Am I right? The drama revolves around two friends named Zara and Maliha from entirely different social backgrounds. They are supportive and have each other's back. But conflict arises when Zara falls in love with Maliha's brother. You might be thinking that what is so unique about this plot. It is the same old story about broken he...

Things I Adore About my Country

 Amidst the infuriating horns and national songs being televised on repeat, I ponder upon the things which I adore about my country. Realistically, Pakistan is a work in progress and is definitely full of flaws. The inflation, the poverty, the violence against women and minorities and several other factors taint the reputation of Pakistan. However, let us not neglect the how this country shines above others. Firstly, the tourism industry is noted to be one of the most well rounded and spellbinding one to ever exist. From the heavenly valleys of the north to the modern and progressive aroma of Islamabad, our country is an all rounder when it comes to being alluring to foreigners. We can assess this by all the ''travel vlogs in Pakistan'' by people from all around the world. They rave about the hospitality of the locals and prepossessing scenery. Secondly, you cannot deny that our country produces child prodigies and geniuses. Not just children, people from all ages and b...
