I know that feeling of anxiously waking up in the middle of the night overwhelmed by the weight of the world.

When you just cannot silence your mind.

When you’re lying there trying hard to fall back asleep.

I know how isolated you can feel even amidst all the people around you.

And the worst part is, we end up blaming ourselves for everything, falling into this never-ending loop of pain. Then the light at the end seems to fade away.

But it’s not the absolute end of the world.

Believe me! I’ve been there and I’ve pulled myself out of the darkest nights of the soul.

So I know, with all my heart, you can too.

Even though I don’t know you personally, just thinking about the trauma you might have endured is making me emotional somehow. I feel for you, my dear.

Hence, I want you to know, beautiful soul, you deserve all the wonderful things life has to offer. But to get there, the first step is healing.

See, we can paint over a broken nail, but that doesn’t stop the pain underneath, right? We can try to romanticise our lives in different ways, but sweetheart, until we heal the internal wounds, that pain will continue to surface in every possible way.

Physical activity doesn’t just shape your body—it fuels your mind and uplifts your spirit. 🌿

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝:

𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒎𝒐𝒐𝒅 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒇-𝒆𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒆𝒎: A study in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry found that regular physical activity can significantly improve mental health. Exercise releases endorphins, making you feel more positive and energetic.

𝑰𝒎𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒑𝒉𝒚𝒔𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒍 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒕𝒉: The American Heart Association recommends daily physical activity for benefits that include better heart health, improved sleep, and enhanced stamina.

But ignoring fitness comes at a cost.

A sedentary lifestyle has been shown to increase the risk of premature death, even for those who occasionally exercise. Poor circulation, muscle loss, and weight gain are just a few of the many risks.

The Earth is crying out—are you listening? 🌱

I understand that we're all hustling and engrossed in our goals, but let's not forget our shared responsibility towards mother earth.

The one who is responsible for all of our well being! Then shouldn't we take care of her as well?

The best part is we don't need to change drastically; it's more about small, impactful shifts towards a sustainable lifestyle.

Here's how YOU can make a difference in your corporate realm:

1. 🚗 𝑺𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒕 𝑪𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒕𝒊𝒏𝒈: It doesn't seem like a bad idea to carpool with your colleagues. Other than reducing our carbon emissions, it'll positively impact the bonding of the teams as well.

2. 🌱 𝑩𝒂𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒊𝒄: Aren't you tired of seeing single-use plastics cluttering the workplace? It's better to switch to reusable alternatives like paper or cloth bags.

3. 💡 𝑷𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒚: Just because it's not our home, doesn't mean we need to put up with unnecessary electricity usage in the office. So can we start switching off lights and devices when not in use? It's not that difficult, is it?

4. ♻️ 𝑾𝒂𝒔𝒕𝒆 𝑾𝒊𝒔𝒅𝒐𝒎: Why can't there be a system for segregating waste for turning food waste into compost? We can use them for indoor plants. Every small action counts towards a greener future.

5. 🏡 𝑶𝒇𝒇𝒊𝒄𝒆 𝑶𝒂𝒔𝒊𝒔: If your office seems dull and devoid of many plants, then to create a more vibrant and cleaner workspace, let's bring nature indoors with indoor plants. It adds aesthetic appeal and contributes to cleaner air.

𝐈𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭 - 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐥𝐚𝐳𝐲 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 😜

👉 Carpool with others to save time
👉 Recycle food waste smartly
👉 Bring more indoor plants
👉 Ban plastic for good
👉 Switch off lights

Let's create a better future, together.

Since childhood, I’ve been a quiet observer, an introvert.

When words didn’t come easily in conversation, writing became my refuge. Like a canvas for my thoughts, I’d pour my heart into paragraphs and poetry.

At first, it was just a hobby, a way to pass the time, express my pent up emotions.

But life has a curious way of guiding us toward our true calling. 😌

In school, my literature essays in English and Bengali began to draw attention. That’s when I realized I could express myself effortlessly that resonated with others.

Then came college, and with it, my first phone. I dove into research, curious if my passion for writing could become a profession.

Remember, this was 7-8 years ago—back when "Content Writer" wasn’t the buzzword as it is today.

I wasn’t sure if writing could pay the bills, so I did what many do—I followed the science path. "More career opportunities," they said. (Thanks, Indian parents! LOL... 🤣)

But fate had other plans. I stumbled upon freelancing, and it was like stepping onto a roller coaster—exciting, unpredictable, and full of twists and turns.

And now? Here I am, living the writer’s life, savoring every moment. 😄

I still remember how furious and disheartened I was the day I received my first bad review on Truelancer...

It stung, but not because of the one-star rating or the comment "not available for work."

It hurt because it came from someone I had worked with for months, someone who had initially stated, "𝒀𝒐𝒖'𝒅 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝒊𝒕 𝒃𝒊𝒈 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒂𝒚."

And you know why?

Because I stopped working with this client 💔

I felt disrespected because of his unnecessary rudeness 😤

You see, I was just a teenager, I didn't know how to deal with it 🤷‍♀️

I came from a "not-so-great" family environment, and I already had low confidence and self-doubt.

Although he paid really low and expected me to work all day, every day, my complaint has always been the topics 📝.

He just wanted me to write SEO-optimized content, not actually help people 🤖

He'd give me 2-3 completely unrelated trending keywords every day and expect me to write one article that fit all of them!

🤯 It was next to impossible!

I tried to tell him it wasn't working, but he wouldn't listen.

His editor told him once that my article article isn't making sense, so he again tried to be disrespectful towards me 🙄

So I lashed out and confronted him, saying,

𝒊𝒇 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒎𝒆 𝒘𝒆𝒊𝒓𝒅 𝒖𝒏𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒌𝒆𝒚𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 3 𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆, 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒅𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒆𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕? 🤷‍♀️

Finally, I told him I didn't want to work with him anymore, but he kept assigning me work anyway.

I'd cave in thinking this would be the last article 🤦‍♀️

At last, I had to be firm and say no to his assigned work.

That got him pissed and he left a bad review

Like, yeah, I'm not available for work that sucks! 👋

Anyway, that's one of the stories that helped me see people in a different light in the professional world 🌎
