Beyond disciplined routine

While casually surfing social media, I came across this message from an inspirational speaker ( couldn’t catch his name) and became deeply impressed by it and therefore, decided to share it. 

After I superannuated , I avoided overindulgence – in binge eating, sleeping, net surfing, watching TV, travelling- and have generally lived a controlled and disciplined life. Sleeping and waking up early, eating moderately and doing regular physical activity, including yoga are a few of the good practices I meticulously follow. I also pursue my passion of reading and writing. 

However, as per the message that I came across, as aforesaid, all the above is alright, but it’s “ inward looking” and self-centric! What is society, community, country or the world getting out of it? The need is to have a larger purpose or a dream and work towards attainment of it. Rest is a good routine, but only a routine! My search for this objective and its attainment continues.

  1. So true Sir,as a homo sapien I e Human being,we do carry a responsibility towards others and the society at large so based on our exploration of self by looking inward,we may define our purpose,the ultimate purpose of our individual lives.

    Thanks for sharing such a thought ful thought,Sir.

    Regards
