What's wrong with us ?

For long time I’m observing and wondering. Sometimes I used to think I’m too young to comment about it, sometime people put me down conveying this is how system works. But I think there is some problem with our system and our way of living life.
Our system, our culture is developed and modified from time to time. This system or culture is based on perception of bunch of people. This perception is more driven for the benefit/comfort/will of a particular community or group and later on the entire generation is directly or indirectly forced to follow it. This culture or system does not align well with the nature and we end up living our life in an unnatural way defined by bunch of people.
Everything belongs to nature. All creations are part of nature.  How humans are different from other creations is that we have more choices to make while other creations are hard wired to serve a purpose.
Nature is self-governing and objective of nature is to keep on evolving. We are just like a pawn playing some role in evolving nature. What we do is what nature wants us to do and what we do triggers nature to further evolve.  Our efforts and their result are just outcome of this evolution process. As a human we have brains and we can make choices. If we do something wrong nature has ways to balance it and still continue evolving.
A good system is one which is aligning with the nature. We should not separate nature from our daily life. If our education, business, jobs are more in a way defined by nature, we will have a very satisfied, still evolving and not tiring life.
Fundamental to creating a system which is aligning with the nature is to "follow your drive". Every one of us is born with a purpose and if we follow our drive we fulfill that purpose. When we follow our drive we do it with passion.if we do something with passion entire creation help us, the truth is that whole natural system is created to help us only. But it helps us only, when we are align with the nature. It’s only us, who have created a system which is not aligned with the nature and because of that we are trying to achieve things in unnatural way of manipulation.
 If every one of us follows our drive from childhood, by adulthood we will acquire skills which are align with our drive. When your drive becomes your work you don’t treat it as work anymore and you enjoy doing more and more. You can imagine an organization hiring people based on their drive rather than their scores in academics. When organization hire people who are self-driven and their drive is aligned with organization business objective, it will become very easy and manageable for organization to meet its own objective.   
Steve jobs is the perfect example of this. His self was aligned with the nature and you see the entire creation helping him. He followed his drive,  few people working with him and who were aligned with his drive helped him. We, as an end-user, dominated by our natural drive to buy quality product also helped him by buying his expensive products.
Your drive can be as long as your life or it can change in between. Whatever it is, the way of living happiest/working/satisfying/evolving  life and building a foundation of a system aligned with nature is "follow your drive".

  1. Very true, I loved the 2 point vision, first is "We should not separate nature from our daily life." and the second one that of, "You can imagine an organization hiring people based on their drive rather than their scores in academics." - a true mantra for quality life. :)

  3. Fantastic one Shahid Bhai...Nice to see your blog and special aspect is that its to the point. Especially the Steve Jobs example - which reminds me of like minded people which he had around and it evolved just because of so called the "nature". Keep pouring bhai :)

  4. Shahid bhai, I had a drunked discussion with my colleages last week and the point of discussion was its the nature which controls everything and we do not know yet much about it right now. More importantly, even if we know we can not (I would say may not be able to ) control anything.
    To relate it to your point, imagine every human understand your point and start following that. Imagine everyone start running behind running their own business or for that matter goign behind their own drive. I see no one will work for anyone else. That is only the business angle I am looking at because thats what majority of people will look at after certain age. Only a few can become popular guitarist, only a few can become actor, and so only a few can become Steve Jobs. Its the rule of nature to maintain a stable society (I thought so when I was drunk ... did not read it anywhere yet).
    Keep writing and lets all plan to meet sometime over drinks.

    1. correction ....

      As u said different people get different drives ....not necessary everyone will have same(business) drive.

      only thing is that we should stop supressing our drive.
