Why do people lose interest in life?
When the dreams of your unfulfilled desire start haunting you. When your life starts losing its charm. When you feel like you are not living a challenging life anymore. When you feel like you are just wandering without any purpose and your life is becoming a daily soap where you miss any day or even a week you won’t find a difference.
Then it’s time to rethink. Is this the life you expected from life? Is this the life you dreamt of? You only live once. And you don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow. Then why waste even a single moment of life doing something that you don’t like. Living the life that you don’t want.
I have heard many people saying that they miss their college day a lot. They miss their childhood a lot. They want to live that life again and so on. Have you ever wondered why?
When I was in class 6th I admired the students of class 10th and wanted to be one of them. When I was in class 12th I was fascinated by the students who have joined professional colleges and eagerly waited to be one of them. And then I joined the college to become an Architect.
I Completed my 5 years there but eagerly waited to join a good firm from where I can earn a decent amount of money that will make me independent. And then I joined a firm!
I guess this happens with almost everyone. We tend not to enjoy the phase we are living but we wonder how our life will be when we cross this phase and reach that point where we see ourselves. Having a goal in life and seeing yourself working towards it keeps the momentum going and you keep moving steadily.
But what happens when you join the office? Why do most peoples lose the charm of their life after working in an office for a couple of years or more? It feels like they are dragging themselves to work. Sitting in the office looking at the clock wondering why the time is going so slow.
Why does it happen? Probably because as soon as you join the office you lose your vision to see yourself in any position. You stop challenging yourself. You stop challenging your limits. You stop working on your personal development. Stop having a goal in life.
Now you are living a life with no dreams and I guess that is the reason why do people lose interest in life. They lose the passion for achieving something because of the absence of clarity in life. What actually do they want from life?

Why do most people hate Mondays and love Fridays a lot? Poor Mondays didn’t do anything but are still the culprit. If we are not doing anything that we like then after some time life starts losing its meaning that is one of the reasons why do people lose interest in life.
Imagine you are spending a minimum of 8 hours every day doing something that you don’t like. You are trying to become a person that you don’t want to be. If you are doing this, of course, you are going to hate your job after someday and then hate your every day.
Why can’t we bring the same passion and energy that we had when were in schools & colleges. Life was not easy at the time also if you take out some time and think. College projects, jury, Monday tests, pre-boards, boards, heartbreaks…..
There were so many things that we dealt with at that time. And still, we miss that phase! It’s because we knew where we were going at that time. That gave the clarity in life and kept you interested.
Or maybe because at that time you were free or felt free. You think you could do the things that you wanted. And now you have responsibilities to abide by. But if you will think deeply, you will realize responsibilities were a part of your life at that time too and you had to follow them at that time too.
But at that time you had a goal in life and having a goal in life, giving you clarity in life.
Imagine, if you set a goal for yourself today and strive hard to give your best to achieve that goal then how different your lives would be. Life won’t be like dragging. It will be like living. It will be like giving one purpose a new meaning to life.
Each day is important. Let’s make it count.. 🙂 🙂
