Sometimes existential crisis strikes you at the most inconvenient time.
Over the last few months : between my child starting school , our very first home taking shape and an average travel to and back from work shooting from 70 kms to 120 kms and other such trivialities , I wrote a book.
For the sake of the formidable craft of writing let me reword that to I compiled an eBook . But with all due respects , it was as hard as perhaps bringing another child in to the world and I’ve realised I would love it with all my heart just like my first-born .
It’s listed here just in case I’ve managed to pique your interest. If I haven’t and you are still reading let me quickly tell you the reason why I went about this Herculean task before you wander off.
There are some (and I can say that with confidence) and only select few who are wired this way. They aren’t just okay with having a career , they aren’t just okay with being healthy , they aren’t just okay with having enough financial worth , they still want / need desire more.
At the cost of seeming perpetually unhappy to people around them , these strange creatures aren’t able to fathom a life in one or let’s say two axis . For them the need to explore the third axis exists. Their own self , the possibilities.
This book is my journey as I tread the third dimension . It’s not personal . It’s not professional . It’s me.
PS: The Third Dimension is so much better as a title and am already planning my next steps with this book so I just did some mental math and isn’t it amazing how it all works out?
I am happy for you. Happy that you took the plunge into the A-Z and then to compile it all into an e-book too. May you always achieve what your heart desires and may it always guide you to the best possible outcomes.
For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t call what you are doing as ‘perpetually unhappy.’ I think it’s more to do with the need to create and creativity is both empowering and liberating. It’s when we are at our vulnerable best and there’s something beautiful about it too 🙂
Its amazing how In a crowd of really judgmental , very critical people , we find strangers who are genuinely happy for you and understand you! Your words mean so much a mere Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover it..
Read the book, it is super awesome 🙂
I spring stories perfectly crafted by the super women herself .
Thanks Dixita.. you feature right in the beginning and all through the journey !!
The Third Dimension does sound like an excellent title! I will look forward to your next book. In the meantime, I’m re-reading these beautiful stories from the A to Z challenge. 🙂
The reason why you took up this Herculean task is just apt. There is always something more that we want to do, something more we want to achieve, when we are stuck in the rut of our daily life.
Congratulations Chandni on successfully publishing your eBook. 🙂
