What is Your Problem?

Leave us alone. We are dedicatedly minding our business. Our business is important to us. Our attention is on the right things. Things that matter to us. We are looking at our problems. And figuring out the best way to solve these problems. And you cannot have a problem with that. You cannot be upset that people are minding their business. You cannot devise ways to start bothering people who have nothing to do with you. People have focus. People have defined their priorities. And they are working hard to make progress. They want peace. They want growth. And they have chosen to focus on growth by working on things that matter. People are peacefully working. They are being peaceful very far away from you. But that too, concerns you. You want to know why they are not interacting with everyone.

You want to bring chaos on their way. You want to do something that will upset them. You want their attention. You want them to be like you. You want other people to be idle like you. Be mediocre like you. You don’t know what you want. You have no goals. You don’t have a vision. You cannot think for yourself. You depend on mass thinking. And you think everyone is like you. Leave other people alone. Find something better to do with your life. You definitely have things to do. But you are not creating time for them. You are not thinking about the future. You are not thinking about yourself. You have blind spots.  You think that things will remain the same. That things will be constant forever. You think you will continue being a dependant forever. You think your parents will continue supplying your needs forever. So you are using your free time to bother other people. People who are not interested in you.

It is absurd that you can be peacefully going about your life. And someone somewhere is not happy. Someone is not happy that you have smooth operations. That your affairs are flowing smoothly. That you are concerned about things that matter to you. That you are peaceful. That you have managed to control your chaos. Someone is not happy that you don’t associate with him/her. Someone is not happy that you don’t behave like them. That you are different from them. And this person wants to do something to you. The person wants to create a false narrative about you. The person wants to harm you. So the person is devising ways to get to you. And the person is determined. The person wants to disrupt your peace. The person wants to distract you from your important things.

The person wants to get you to talk. To argue with him/her. The person wants to make a fool out of you. The person wants to lower the standards. The person wants you dirty. the individual is looking to spread mediocrity in your life. That person wants to stall you. Someone wants to slow you down. But you need to stand your ground. Continue minding your business. Continue solving your problems. Continue paying attention to your work and everything else that matters to you. Protect your peace. You owe no one an explanation. You don’t have to explain yourself to people. Your lifestyle choices have nothing to do with other people. Don’t explain yourself. Notice the person but pay no attention. Pursue your goals. Follow your dream. Work on activities that get you what you want. Live your life the way you want.

Ignore Purposeless 

We live in a big society. And in a big society. We have all types of people. Including those who mind other people’s business. People who enjoy upsetting others. People who love getting in the way of other people. Society has people who cannot just focus on their lives alone. They want to know what is happening in the next house. What people in the next house are eating or talking about? And there is nothing you can do about these people. They will always exist. They will always disturb. They will always be nosy. Don't be bothered by these groups of people. Notice who they are and keep going. Watch them from a distance. As long as, whatever schemes they are devising are not criminal. Don't waste your energy on them. Focus. Live your life. Make progress. It is not your fault that someone is idle or chosen to be idle. That is not your business.

Your business is to mind you. If you love smooth operations. Then no one should interfere in your with your smooth operations. No one should steal your peace. Don't abandon things that matter because of outside forces. If someone is upset that you are focused and always organized. That is that person’s problem. You have nothing to do with it. People should grow up. And learn how to think for themselves. If the person interfering likes flowing with the masses. That again is that person's problem.  He/she will wake up when he wants to wake up. But in the meantime. Mind your business. Mediocre people should leave us alone. Idle people should also leave us alone. Purposeless people should other people alone. People who have failed to manage their own lives should leave us alone. People who cannot make the right decisions for themselves should leave us alone.

Look Ahead

You got a future to think about. You got a life to live. You got ambitions. You want to get somewhere. You want your operations to function in a certain way. You have a whole vision for your life. Focus on these things. Get your life moving. Don't pay attention to idlers. Tell purposeless people to get out of the way. Nobody should drag you in their nonsense. Detach yourself from distractors. They carry more toxicity than you think. Move away from people who fill up their empty spaces with gossip. Get away from malicious people. They have nothing good going on except rumors. You don’t need these kind of people. You don’t need this type of energy around you. You don’t need people that enflame you. You don’t need people that upset you. You are okay minding your business. You made the right decision. Stick with it. Your life is more important than people who want to pull you  behind. Focus at what is at stake and ignore everything else.

Let people who have a problem with the way you live continue to have a problem. If they have time to have a problem with you. Then let them have a problem with you. Let them continue piling their burdens. You have done nothing wrong by making certain decisions. You have done nothing wrong by minding your business. You have things that need your attention. And you have made the right call. Find more peace in your life. Simplify your life. Lessen your burden. Pursue your ambitions. Work on your goals. Make progress. Do everything that matters to you. That is and should always be your priority. You are on the right path. Be unapologetic about it. And nosy people should leave you alone. Don't allow them to make you their business. And if they decide to make you their business. Then let them waste their time. Because you will keep your eyes on the right things. You will solve your problems. You will not create room for distraction. You will not give attention to wrong people. And you will not allow other people to upset you. You will mind your business. And remain focused.
