A reflect journal of a day pause I took from my much loved demanding life

I woke up with an intense feeling today! Stay put, could be a revelation for you too (if you’re anyone like a workaholic like most of us)

What was it? 

After finishing a small sweet project of 8 days day in & out, sleeping there, no visit to my house or any other physical meeting, I finally decided to take a day off and just rest. – No visits, no meeting people, no galleries, no exhibits. Just staying back at home and letting the feeling sink in. 

Anybody who knows me even a bit would know that the last thing I’d ever do is stay at home at any given day. And here it was yesterday – a “Sunday” of March 2026 – (the deadliest month for founders and brands for their annual numbers are in front of them with all investors, decision makers around them questioning decisions of oneself – which is where fortunately my cellphone is constant on ring. It is the time when 70% of decision makers are in planning mode with the review of the last gone year in hand. A time when they need discussions and planning most.) 

Anyways. So I decided to take a day off and today I woke up with a feeling of energy which I had not felt in some months I’d say. 

I touch base with a lot of my friends (not work friends :D), did a lot of house chores (which anyways I love to do), sat through a great podcast and have been more agile with my decisions and responses. 

I try to find out why. 

It wasn’t caffeine, wasn’t “invoice” clearances, lol – but simply 24 hours in my space that I had created with love per me. I had my notifications on mute (which mostly are), cooked a best made meal at dinner, and just sat through. No big book finishing, or journaling, or motivational video. But just being at my space. 

And I guess  I had time to reflect. 

The fact that I could make some time out just right in the morning amongst the busiest Monday of March 30th of the year after finishing bit of my morning commitments (and an unscheduled meeting call – which I don’t take usually), speaks in volume for me how I feel to produce more. 

So just sharing this as a note – to every entrepreneur, executive, professional, student, parent, friend, anyone amongst us – to feel okay and listen to your body when it tries to speak with you and not just always follow your mind. 🙂 

Well, have a fantastic Monday, week and the new financial year with planned, fact based planning and decisive decision making, filled with a lot of creativity. Love to all. 

ciao!
