Building and Life

Building and Life

A good building is the result of the collaboration between various professionals. An effective architect handles the design, a construction company ensures stability and quality, an interior designer adds elegance, maintenance keeps it looking new, and housekeeping ensures cleanliness. If any of these roles fail, the building may not be as appealing as it could be.

Now, let’s relate this to life. We are the architects of our own lives. We need to design our lives in a way that suits us, laying a strong foundation with our values and purpose. We must build with clear goals, well-defined plans, and actionable steps. It's essential to maintain our well-being, keeping ourselves free from physical illness and mental worries. Just like housekeeping ensures a clean environment, we should regularly cleanse both our body and mind to achieve a fresh outlook on life.

A well-maintained building, regardless of its age, can remain livable and retain its good resale value. Similarly, when we take care of ourselves, we can thrive in our careers and pursue our hobbies, regardless of age, and we can always command value in our respective fields.

The next time you encounter a sturdy, elegant, and clean building, ask yourself if you see a reflection of yourself in it.

While listening, we may be trying to engage our logical brain to recall our memories and creativity for a response, or we may be accessing our emotional brain to defend ourselves against what is being said. For example, if one person talks about ways another could improve, the listener might offer excuses such as a lack of time, resources, or support. Alternatively, they may bring up personal emotions, like health or family issues. These reactions often occur while the other person is still speaking, leading to a decreased understanding and an increased eagerness to defend one’s position. During this type of conversation, the listener may appear restless, exhibiting a lack of eye contact or head nodding. In such interactions, th...
