Have you been in one of those queer and yet so consuming moments where you stop doing whatever you are doing and think, why am i doing this though? You don't like doing it or whatever fruit it shall bring isn't to your taste?

If so,I can assure you, you aren't the only one. Either this dilemma of yours will be laughed away among friends or your consciousness will kick it away because of the already existing shoulder breaking work load you have, but for some it becomes so consuming they find it hard or impossible to come out of this muddy trail of thoughts.

Have I ever thought of this?or climbed this same trail? Yes, definitely and thus, I bring this post in view.

So first let's break it down. Why do we feel unhappy about what we are doing ?

1. You don't like doing it?

2. You don't really care about the good outcome it shall bring?

3. You wanted to do something else all together?

As we all are humans with a brain capable of miracles if we are indeed doing these things even though these three pointers pierce us,there must be a reason and they can be:

1. If you don't like doing it and yet you are, you probably want to have the outcome it will bring in future. People opt for this when they have big plans for their future at the cost of their present.

2. Whatever you are doing, it doesn't bother you much or maybe you do love it but you cannot enjoy it's outcome in the future and are worried and rethink if you should do something that will nourish your future. This one can be common or can also be classified as people just worrying about their future

3.You cannot worry much or concentrate about what you are doing at present cause your mind is too morose thinking about the possibilities you could have achieved in the time you are wasting doing whatever you are doing. Mainly people do these, cause they are pressured by what people think or expectations.

In my opinion just throwing all your expectations and happiness towards your future and having all the darkness at present, in hope for having the fruits of your hard work in future is of utmost stupidity. Why? Cause my fellow beings do you know if you will live tomorrow?

But then again,what if we may?what if we may life tomorrow and we don't leave any help for ourselves for the future and finish up our vile of happiness today?What if we leave whatever shall brighten our future just cause you don't like it right now?

It may seem like an impossibility. Enjoying the future being North of a magnet and enjoying the present, South of a magnet. So the question arises, how can we help our future and love our present at the same time?

Then the answer is analysing, have it all planned out, do things in a way that you love the present and anticipate the future. Take help if you need to.

Do not live in the expectations of future nor just live for today.

"Take help if you need to" - I admire that confidence. Your article is good but it was arduous for me to follow and I had to read three times 😓. Will be waiting on another excellent work 👍
