कुछ छूटा छूटा सा है ... Arre huzur apko fomo ho gya h 😉

FOMO - fear of missing out ...missing out anything that others are doing... Or not doing ...or pretending to be doing... Or doing to pretend... 😉

Recently I came across a post by @Social Samosa which shared an ad created by Five star - our very own favourite chocolate... Which encouraged individuals to 'Do Nothing' and let go of the FOMO (link - https://www.linkedin.com/posts/socialsamosa-com_donothing-activity-7064536574885019648-9bxL?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop).

This looked interesting and made me think how much most of us are attached to this FOMO... Social media further has triggered it and you can see people following trends and following what

others are doing.. many blindly follow what others are doing without thinking how it is affecting them- good or bad ... Whether it is needed at all or is just a wastage of one's energy!!

FOMO dates back to 1996 but is more visible now! People are so much overwhelmed with not missing out that they don't know that they are missing so much!! In the race to do everything they are not able to enjoy or experience one thing fully!

So my dear friends, relax and let go of few things... Let few things get missed out ... Let it be Fun of missing out rather than fear!! Relax and take in the moment...take in what is in hand....

𝑽𝒐 𝒂𝒌𝒉𝒓𝒊 𝒑𝒂𝒏𝒏𝒂.... 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒕 𝒑𝒂𝒈𝒆….

While cleaning my bookshelf the other day, I came across an old notebook from my first job... It had some scribbles about tasks to do at that time.... As I was turning it's pages, I reached the last page which had a treasure 😉... Few extension numbers noted down of team members, some drawings 🤭, and what not.... But it brought back those memories...

Thinking back, during our school days we carried a ‘rough copy’.... Which was used for anything and everything 😂... The last page of that notebook also had a similar treasure…. From those secret messages to friends 😉 to those drawings when you found the class boring... all those scribbles and notes which may not be that important but created precious memories

That last page ... Which did not have any importance but was the most precious one. Still coming across it would give you wonderful memories and brighten up your mood.

In life too there are many things and events which may not hold that much significance but create beautiful memories and happiness.... And you would realise it only later... Looking back at it

So take a step back and look around... What are you ignoring or taken for granted... You never know what you may be missing ... Something simple today may be remembered tomorrow as that last page ...

I leave you to this thought today... on this 𝑾𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒆𝒔𝒅𝒂𝒚... 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒈𝒖𝒚 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒊𝒅𝒅𝒍𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒌... 𝑹𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒕 𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒆... 𝑵𝒐𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒊𝒏𝒈 '𝒃𝒍𝒖𝒆𝒔' 𝒏𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒘𝒆 '𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒌 𝑮𝒐𝒅' 𝒇𝒐𝒓! 😊
