rambles after an unproductive day

Posted on at


Ever feel like going through life without expectations so that there is no risk of something not meeting your expectations. This attitude is flawed because as you experience disappointments at a particular moment you realize you had subconscious expectations. I tend to say I have no expectations which means I would not have grounds to complain. I have heard that instead of complaining one should come up with solutions. I can identify personal problems but fail to look for the solutions. I am no problem solver but just a complainer. I thought coming to India would be great but in my 3rd week I feel like my family was right. Not the family that said I was crazy for moving to a developing country for 6 months but the relatives that tried to get me to dig deep and explain what do I expect to get out of India. Then and now I fail to be able to articulate what I want out of India. Initially I figured great 6 months out of the workforce and time to figure out my life. I sit at home every day waiting for work. I don't know how to be a change maker without having met all the staff. Maybe I need to tune into life and absorb all the information given in order to figure out what next. Today felt like a waste because I've sat on Youtube all day and for an hour created a newsletter in Publisher granted I didn't write the content.  If I don't change my attitude I feel that I am doomed. What is my breaking point that will force me to change. Some say turn your passion into a career. What is my passion? Is it that I have an innate selfish quality that does has disabled me. I say I want to do xyx but then tomorrow it will be abc. I try and be a good friend and relative but sometimes feel like I failed everyone. Being me doesn't seem enough since yes everyone has struggles my struggles are not unique to me but how do I get rid of my struggles. Ignoring them and helping others with theirs is a temporary fix of ok I feel accomplished but these days I just feel like I am wafting through life without really ever feeling accomplished and productive. I complain but yet I don't change anything. Ok my next post needs to be relevant to the work I am doing and more positive if there is such a thing as more positive for me.
