Nick-wit-ism

Do you recall the times when you sat peacefully after completing all the household chores on a Sunday and suddenly the rain starts pouring in the eastward wind direction and you realize you forgot to close the windows of the bedroom and water has already started seeping on the bed and the side table and the floor! Or the times when the maid is off duty and you have cleaned the floor and you get up and realize your child has urinated near the low seated mattress and the book shelf from which she is conveniently throwing books into the puddle! or the times when you are rushing to the kitchen to get something off the shelf and in a hurry you drop a glass bowl ...bravo!

You have successfully mastered the art of adding unnecessary work to life...endless chores! zero productivity! no satisfaction! And this incessant feeling mounting up your throats which when released is an under-exaggerated shriek. Welcome to the world of highly volcanic obsessive freaks....or more conveniently called nick wits! So this obsession can be of anything...cleanliness, uncontrollable urge to get everything in order, uncalled frustration of not moving anywhere (leave alone forward) in life, or a mere staining your favorite t-shirt in wash... the list is endless but you get the gist.

Now you  may say the situation you stated were out of your control....this is just pure hard luck.....if  rain comes uninvited in your bedroom there is nothing much you can do...or may be you have 2 choices...one to immediately spring to action, wipe out the water dry off the floor, change the bed sheet to save the mattresses, wipe the side table with a dry cotton cloth to save the polish and of course don't forget to close the windows ....this of course takes the fun out for 10 mins of your life....second, just leave it at that, close the bedroom door and deal with it later! The normal people, with sane minds and average sense of well being choose the first approach.... nick wits like me run after the later one! Why ?!

This is just an example ...... and incidents like this flood my timeline all the time.....like literally all the time! I am struggling with so called nick-wit-ism since my late teenage...people don't really treat it as an issue but it really is...may be not a third world problem for sure. But how slowly and steadily it has started ruining my life and mocking me in the process...Ah!

Before you start, I have some school of thought for cure too .....the one which follows social media for inspiration........ and find people don't really have this kind in their lives ever or they don't care either or they are just smart enough not to display any such emotion in public ! (Its always better to portray how awesome life can be!)
Arggghhhh....so my struggles with SOMO (social media :P) is a separate chapter and will be covered later .....Coming back,  I find another one...a sidelined one these days..... turning this anxious melodrama of life into some random reckless ongoing finger snapping.... documenting your thoughts is a wonderful ...really marvelous way to channelize this energy into something meaningful -
1. you get to understand what you are feeling
2. you realize you are sane ...or insane...likewise once you read what your are writing
3. and you spend some 15-20 minutes on this exercise realizing how stupid this entire conversation was....
Nick-wit-ism!... oh how dumb!
