March Fourth

I came across a few old hand written notes from 2018 and 2019 .... about my PhD and how excited I was.  It took me back to those inspirations.  A lot of it made sense too.  I just need to tap in and keep going on the things that I enjoy.

Today we finished discussing Chanakya book - each chapter I would read it with my parents and discuss on the 'Take away.'  Today' was on what is my purpose.  

I am feeling tired is it because of the broken sleep from catching the train at 3am to Melbourne?

I had few realizations and ah haa moments.  I would write a list of items to complete each day and ensure they were accomplished.  With PhD being more like a marathon, the speed at which things were happening was so slow it felt like a halt and I halted.  Hope this weekend energizes me and re-inspires me to keep going!

When I was working it was more like fire fighting, if I did not accomplish a tasks it was still ok because there were more urgent and important tasks to complete.  

Yesterday  I rewatched 'Jab We Met' and Kareena says she is responsible for whatever decisions she makes in life and that makes her happy!  When we are happy it seems all hunky dory yet how do we keep the playfullnessa and jy in our lives and keep moving on?

Studying day by day, leads to week by wekk, leads to month by mth and this is the compuding effect in PhD.  Right now I am feelign lazy, tired and sleepy.

I will go get a green tea and have that with the dessert that my mother has made - payasam!  And will use this standing desk.  May be I will go to bed early tonight!

Not much to write or report here today.  Wish me luck with my literature review :-)
