I am one person who likes having my life put together… I cannot stand Chaos hence I try to have my life, my affairs and any space I find myself organized.

Recently, I found myself in utter Chaos. I lost sight of what I want from Life. I lost control over my affairs and everything became disorganized … I became so frustrated because I was Suddenly tired of everything. And considering that I am one person who prides myself on being Persistent and Resilient, I became the exact opposite of these. I showed up at work everyday late and nonchalant to my responsibilities. I also only showed up because I needed to, not because I wanted to. I literally became Unstable.

Then one day, I got into discussion with my Sisters and we were all discussing what we all wanted so bad in our lives at that moment, And without thinking, I blurted out the Word “Stability”. Everyone was shocked including myself, because that Word literally summed up everything each of us wishes for, Immediately They embraced it also… It was then I realized I had been chasing things the wrong way… Putting the Word Stability into Focus helped me realign my priorities.

We all have different priorities… No two people Share the same Priorities, Not in the same order at least… However, Defining our Priorities helps to know what we want from life and go for that exact thing. It helps us have a plan or as I would call it “A Road Map”. Some would say that Too much planning does not give room for Chance, And I would agree to some extent because it establishes Rigidity whereas Spontaneity is what is needed in some cases… However Not Having a plan is equal to Unpreparedness and if I’ve learnt anything from the Highs and Lows of Life, It’s that you have to Always be Prepared, No matter how minimal.

I once wrote a Quote: “ So long as you know exactly where you’re going, You can never get lost in the crowd.”
