Don’t worry, I have also been  called the irresponsible and clueless person.

" If you don't like Mondays, you are doing the wrong job," we happen to see this on every Sunday and either feel guilty for not being able to follow our passion or feel happy that someone among us out there is doing what they like in life.

I know that life can always put you in situations where you have to be practical about making important decisions in life including your career. I have been questioning myself a several times that why am I trying to fit in somewhere where I don't belong.

This period of 20s' in life is going to teach us several things which we have never come across in earlier stages. We see so many of them getting married, starting to settle down, turning successful in their career, becoming an inspiration but still, there will be some of you typically like me, lying down on a couch and thinking, " What the hell am I even doing with my life? ".

I will tell you something, we should never feel guilty and underestimate ourselves for not being able to get what we dream. Sometimes, being practical is not a poor decision and at the same time, taking risks to pursue what you really want to be is also not an immature decision. I have seen so many people quitting their jobs, dropping out of college , trying to fly out of their cages to chase their dreams, sounds inspirational and we should respect this decision. There are still some people out there who have to fit in an environment where they don't belong because they are bound to commitments and taking risks would make them as well as people who are dependent on them suffer for no reason, we should respect this decision too.

I have been called the slow learner, irresponsible,  clueless, joker, coward sometimes immature for not being able to make own decisions in my career. There have been many a times when I have planned to quit my job because I have felt that I don't deserve to fit in between people who are a way too talented and smarter than I am.

"Follow you heart" , "Do what you love", We might think whether all these life changing and inspirational quotes could only be relatable for successful people because they have achieved it.

It is not true. We learn from everyone around us even in the environment where we don't belong. Every phase of your good and bad days is always preparing you for the next challenge in life.

If someone is following their passion and making decisions that could totally change their lives, we should respect it. At the same time, if someone is being practical and deciding to stay in an environment at the present because they are clueless and worried about taking risks, we should respect that too.

We support each other and grow together. Trust me, if you are true to your life by not bringing other people down for your selfish needs, the universe is always listening to you. It is preparing you and going to give you all the strength you need to stand on your own feet.

If you are stuck between passion or dreams and at the same time being worried and clueless like me, don't worry, there comes a time in life where you will see that your dreams are becoming true. Till then, being practical and making wise decisions to be independent in life is nothing to be ashamed of.

You should always have many alternate options in life to keep yourselves going on towards the phase of respecting and trusting yourself  for what you are becoming.

Every work is making you realize who you are and setting you ready for what you want to be.

It is okay to be afraid on weekdays and be confused and clueless on weekends.

Remember, Any decision you take for chasing your dreams is worth fighting for, you could be following your dreams and passion as a part time, or working hard for it on a full time basis, it just matters whether you are trying for it without giving up on yourselves.

Be happy, be positive, be you.
