Hard work

Last week was a killer. Had a couple of 16 hour workdays, and then came the whopper 30-hour workday. And through all of it, I was cheerful as ever. I was loving the work, the brain was loving the hyper-activity and for a long while now, I was actually feeling productive and useful. I realize that among the things I have to set right is the hard-work component in professional and personal (investments, travel, etc) life that has been missing all these years due to the comfort of a regular paycheck. I have chosen the road to run on, and am now looking forward to the marathon I want to run on it. I dont have to, but I want to. And the relaxing weekend that followed felt so well-deserved that I felt proud of taking a break - no nagging thoughts of uselessness. Lazing around rich and fat is not what I term as 'the good life' anymore. I want a hard-working week, harder working investments and a well deserved rest with music, friends and an afternoon nap :) Life ban jaayegi!
