I WAS PERFECT, HORMONES RUINED ME



1.1 PERFECTIONISTS ARE CELEBRATED


The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.







: these lines of Robert frost express the perseverance of a determined man who is hell bent on achieving what he desires the most.They are an inspiration to many individuals struggling to achieve success. and the perception of the word success changes with the individual in context.Some aspire to be powerful,others to be prosperous and some of them just want an admission to top notch institute like IIMs ,IITs and AIIMS.

Meticulous and perfectionist people are celebrated and revered everywhere .and they should be,because it is this what makes an achiever.and it is said that there is no substitute for hard work. true...indeed


1.2 THE LAZY AND SLOTHFUL

But what about the lazy and slothful, who prefers a sleeping spree and wakes up in the afternoon with a heavy head ,and wishes to take a small nap again ( which is probably because of the sleep inertia).

well the answer is that...they are of course not celebrated and revered, but yes ..they are considered to be lazy schmucks and losers in some cases.May be i'm exaggerating a little ,but then hyperbole is itself a beautiful curve which i always liked more than the others like 'ellipse' and the mundane 'circle'. and if i like hyperbole (statements), it shouldn't be much of a surprise.

what i'm not is meticulous and perfectionist and what i'd always wanted be was one...so now as a result of my frustration which arises due to all the useless time tables ,new year resolutions (forgotten after resolving) and meaningless vows to work hard .....i developed an aversion to the very virtues, which are so talked about here .


1.3 SEROTONIN AND OCD:

and 'serotonin' came to my rescue.

who is serotonin?

a pertinent question indeed..

well its a hormone and a neurotransmitter which is often associated with deprssion and OCD.
OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) is a anxiety disorder characterized by obsessive thoughts which cause anxiety and repetitive behavior aimed at reducing anxiety(compulsions).

The name OCD disorder is freaky itself and freaks are the people affected by it.and what the person becomes after this disorder ,is meticulous and perfectionist.
strange na?

yes its is..

The idea of giving perfectionist people an appellation of freak is in itself strange.how the hell can one speak ill of the people he admires and tries to imitate.and how can you call him a weirdo ,when other people don't.

1.4 EVERYONE IS SOMEONE'S WEIRDO..

the golden rule of life is 'everybody is someone's weirdo '. and the degree of weirdness differs in perspective of the individual. it is way to disparage others and then the only sane person in his full mind left is you, so u r the hero.

jhakaas philosphy na??

yes it is..

1.5 CONCLUSION



so now that you know that perfectionists are weirdos , plagued by OCD ,have abnormal levels of serotonin and are as well depression inclined, you would of sure feel better than never before.

and better should you feel after getting this golden revelation which even buddha could'nt get.



in short the people whom we so much admire, are but a bunch of freaks suffering from hormonal disorder .


and it is only hormones that we need in order to take down this world ,but at the cost of our sanity.

so at last i can make a very apposite conclusion:

I WAS PERFECT , HORMONES RUINED ME..
