Inner score card, outer score card.
Seriously, why must it be a score card?
We are pretty obsessed with results and quantifying it.
Why cant it be simple as 'I am happy with the life I am leading right now, I am living a full life'
Also, corporate life is unhealthy, it's just the way it is. If you can, escape and do something else.
Why do I say that, let's start in the morning, before you even start work and face your boss.
1. You wake up. (do you really want to wake up this early? or would you rather sleep late?)
2. You go about your usual routine and you travel to work(after dropping off the kids etc)
Now, here you take public transport or you drive. We all know how crammed the MRTs are.
how can you be happy when you are packed like sardines every 5 days of the week???
So you drive, congrats, you are paying good money to be stuck in traffic and in some places there is no season parking for you.
3. You reach the office, greeting people you wished were dead. You switch on your PC/laptop and heads off to the pantry to take your daily
water. You check your schedule. Deadlines, meetings, con calls, reports...is there any happy event? Actually there is, that is 12.00pm,
freedom for 1hr. 4 hours from now, lunchtime.
