Energy Management!

Please, I am neither writing about some environmental issue nor trying to unleash some of the scientific concepts of energy (I anyway don't have! :) )

It was a saturday (This is mostly the best day of any week for me; until someone else makes some other day special :D). I was talking to Ting (my good old friend) and he enquired about some of the plans, both of us thought about in our college (He does that in every meeting of ours). And like every time, I just cursed this professional life saying that it doesn't leave any time to think about anything else. He unconvincingly dropped the issue; though I understood his plight.

Well, the conversation went on for hours and I enjoyed it as always. But somehow, this time I was thinking seriously about Ting's question. Do I really not have any time to think about anything else? Hey, that can't be; that has never been the case. I can compromise in my sleep-hours to gain time. But then, why am I not thinking about those plans?

Then I realised that, it's not the time. It is energy to think which drops down to zero by the time, I return from office. I never wanted that to happen. I can't afford such a loss for my personal life. I was shocked. I had to find the ways to get around the problem.

I know if I get into some bug (that's how they call it in the industry), it is always difficult to stop myself from giving all I can (Don't take that as an attempt of self-praise. Believe me, you should not be like that in all situations). I think, I will need to change this to maintain the work-life balance! :)
Moreover, I can always think of the ways of regaining the energy after office hours. Guys, any ideas how to do that? Help!!!

hey, you are still on the blog!! I thought it was scrapped long back....

Keep writing, linking your page :-)

I guess the best way to have a work-life balance, at least to kick it off would be to start gyming, or look for a GF - she'd keep you on toes :D

Yeah! Still struggling against all odds to keep my blog alive!
Now, as you are linking it there, I will probably have one more reason to keep it alive.
Btw, thanks for the ideas but what makes you assume that I don't have any GF? :o

Why are you under-estimating me yet again?
Can't I have more than one? :D
