A look back at the me I used to be: Life Hacks by Charles Assisi

We don’t often see it, but life is defined by transition, that wily sidekick to change. Each phase is a chance to mourn a previous self, or celebrate a new you.

One of the things that makes the series The Bear (2022-) so compelling is that each of its key characters, all chefs, are navigating personal turning points or transitions.

Spice of life: Slow down to enjoy the simple pleasures of life

Not so long ago, life moved at a slower pace. Walks and strolls were a leisurely pursuit. But just look around today! As a prescriptive compulsion, people are walking but unemotionally

The word ‘saunter’, from the French ‘Saint Terre’, connotes a walk at a slow and relaxed pace and denotes a walk of mental peace, as if one has all the time in the world. (HT Photo)

Learning to live at 59 kmph

The speed limit in a well-planned city like Chandigarh is 60 kilometres per hour for cars, though in some crowded areas, like in other towns, it is impossible to drive even beyond 20 kmph; But on a clear roadway with not too many vehicles around, Chandigarh’s car owners used to be prone to zooming beyond 70 kmph or even 80 kmph within the city

It is said that the pain of discipline is preferable to the pain of regret. (Shutterstock)

Random Forays: The calmness route to decision making

Elections are around the corner and all voters must not only exercise their right to vote but must also decide their choice of candidates with calm, cool, sensible mindsets. We cannot afford to choose a career or a matrimonial liaison without a high degree of discernment. We can also not afford to decide which way our vote will go without distancing ourselves from the diatribe and vitriol that have vitiated the air.

Our decision making suffers on account of a spectrum of emotions, rufflements and perceptions. While decisions like the choice of ice cream or even the attire to don on a particular day might not have earth-shaking implications, the tone we use to speak to others might influence relationships.

Random Forays: The unpredictable meanderings of life

Life and its twists have the potential to boggle the mind of the observant human watcher. Who sits next to you on the train and who do you encounter at a ticket counter? Who decides which queue moves faster and which cab you get into? Which movie director could plan for one’s sudden urge to eat gol-gappas which necessitates an encounter with the expert craftsman who prepares and sells them.

I often wonder at the probability of bumping into someone we know in a crowded marketplace or at an airport. (Shutterstock)

Random Forays: Celebrations are necessary, gratefulness is essential

But even rarer are celebratory pauses to savour landmarks which have been hard earned. The maddening rush to keep moving on to the next milestone along the desired pathway to glory prevents us from relishing any happy moment to the fullest.

The catapulted craziness of life in the 21st century hardly leaves us with time even to celebrate our highs. It is another matter altogether that humans of this era typically forget to be grateful for the many blessings that they have. (Getty Images/iStockphoto)

Random Forays: Riding the relentless tempest of time

Hark! The tempest of time rolls on relentlessly. Time and tide wait for none, goes the proverb. At times it seems as if these two forces of nature have ganged up against us and are galloping forth, leaving us quite breathless in their wake.

Father Time does test us, and the years wither away our enthusiasm. Very few are able to retain that boundless childlike energy in their later years. Not for physical reasons but for reasons of the mind. (Shutterstock)
