How is the modern age changing us? ( Part 3 )









                                 

3. Day to day activities.

        In general, we human beings are living considerably different way of life. The activities of a person these days are unlikely to include, gathering and hunting for food. Instead, they are likely to incude watching TV, shopping, driving a car, eating in a restaurant and other common practices done by the today’s world.
        As I have mentioned in the earlier posts, our way of life is the main reason for the countless problems we’re encountering today. I’ve also mentioned that living a sedentary life has its own consequences. A sedentary lifestyle has a typical behaviour – low immobility. Working is today defined both physically and mentally. In fact a job that involves more mental work than a physical work is prized by majority of people (it also is due to the fact they pay a better salary). So, we naturally accept that white collar jobs (those that involve more mental work) are better than blue collar jobs (those that involve more manual labour).
                Although both of these jobs are equally important, they have their own pros and cons while considering the level of their activity in their day to day life.
         Blue collar jobs offer a very much active life compared to that of the white collars. But unfortunately, there are risks to one’s well being while engaging in the manual labour. Many jobs have a potential heath hazard such as working in a coal mine or are exposed to pollutants in a big city for a long time which can result in a wide range of chronic diseases and other self induced diseases.
         The white collars meanwhile may not have the problems blue collars face but have their own troubles to deal with. These include a body that is dangerously inactive to having plenty of stress. Stress may seem like an easy word but think again, almost all patients of psychological breakdown is resulted from excess stress and other related causes.
          So think twice before judging which kind of job is better than the other. Call me crazy but I think all jobs are equal, but the salaries are not. I’m not at a position to bring any kind of economic equality, but I’d like to remind people that every achievements is not only due to the leader or manager but is of the whole work force involved.
          Coming back to our topic, it’s hard to find a way of life where our day to day activities aren’t hurting us or others in some way. It is up to us to know what part of our jobs may have a danger to our well being and try to find a solution to our specific situation.
           To round things up, I would like to tell all my readers to take a closer look to our day to day life activities and see if they have any damaging impacts to us or to anyone else. Have any question, comment or suggestion? Will  be glad to see them and answer them as soon as I can.


THANKS FOR READING!

Why do we miss on fearing out?

Image
It seems to rule everyone. When it appears, we all start cramming to make ourselves well informed. You might be wondering, what it is that makes us panic to the excess? Well I’ll say it is the fearing of missing out. Why do we fear on missing out? It might be responded differently but I’d argue that one core unites all responses. Let’s see it down from an individual perspective. [I’m me. I know I’ve only this life to live and I’ve to make the most of it. I’ve weaknesses but I hope my strengths will overcome them. I don’t like it when I miss out on something important. It feels I’ve been cheated by fate and I’m the unluckiest person. When I grab on something most people don’t get, I feel proud and important but sadly it won’t last.]         I do believe we all feel this way one way or another. From my experience, it’s important to utilize the opportunities we can get, but this raises the question “what things should we spend our time with?” ...

4 ways to be a mentally Independent person.

Image
                             Being mentally independent is the start of all types of independence. Be it financial, social,emotional…. Therefore clearing the mind first before any step; major or minor is crucial so I thought it will be great to write on how to simply make our mind at its best efficiency for us. 1.     Hope, don’t regret.           Hope is the only reason we human beings live for. Being a rational animal has its drawbacks. First, we are adjusted to look back to what we have lost in the past. We spend our precious time trying to figure out if it wasn’t for that thing or the other that came before it.          Just to remind you of what effects it has in our lives – IT DOESN’T MATTER! True, it may be the reason that some people are acting towards us. But don’t be like them. They’re people who live in the past.  ...
