Hello sir, U have been a Manager for 25 years in a reputed company !! That's a lot of experience with all d ups n down in your career.. Few Q's regarding which I think you need to introspect.. 1. Whether I am doing d work I always wanted to do & enjoying it.. (as many corporate jobs become monotonous as you go ahead) 2. If so, whether I am satisfied the way I have lead my life ? By satisfaction, money would be last thing I would gauge satisfaction on bcaz paisa, gadi, bungalow n all have materialistic value.. they will give u temporary pleasure but will loose it's value once u have all of it.. n u will feel less motivated.. only family, siblings, biwi, bache & f__ck__g good old friends will be ur true wealth. ( May be job would have eaten all it time but that's not an excuse.) 3. Why not take breaks n go on a holiday where u spend time with ur family on a beach, spend time having beer with friends on a shack, going on religious trips or just take hiking.. journeys make u meet & know yourself more.. so take a break regularly.. 4. Very importantly have u been physically fit all these long years.. as you seems to be experiencing burn out sir the way u r describing ur problems.. n remember more d body gets tired so does our mind n vice a versa.. 5. Where do you see yourself standing when u are looking at Maslow's hierarchy model.. U Must read about it n self actualization sir.. i doubt but may be are u going through a mid- life crisis.. Also do read about Erik Erikson's life stages.. 6. Sacrifices, suffering, sadness n feeling low are all human emotions.. don't worry if u do feel so.. assuming u r human too, u r bound to fell so.. As Buddha said, the essence of life is suffering.. it is always going to be, so kyun na beech mein break lekar zingadi ji kar dekh aur maje le.. 7. Finally few don'ts : - don't ponder to figure out everything.. humanely impossible - don't expect anything.. - don't cling to anything - don't reject everything Life was never meant to be so serious, that what education n earnings n desires have done to us.. so don't be.. everyone comes with an expiry date, so do you and me.. so stop worrying.. V. imp: Start having a sense of awareness about urself.. Wisdom is not about knowing what's the problem but in knowing the problem & also knowing how to fix fit !! May God bless you with all d compassion n courage to find a way out of it. P.S. sorry for being too long n if it sounds too philosophical n less technical, but that's what the difference between a man n a machine !!
