Fixing Stuff Around Yourself
Background
Introducing you one of the places played a vital role in my professional beginning. You can consider it my office room but later you will know the secrets. So, the story started here when I involved myself in serving as Volunteer Graduate Assistant at Mechanical Engineering Department of U.E.T Lahore. I performed my responsibilities at Department as well my research work while sitting in this room and the time spent here was astonishing. Undoubtedly, this room primarily does not belong to me, but to my respectable Supervisor. You can see the first floor in the image and the office is located at the right of blue colored board painted as “Faculty of Mechanical Engineering. And working there, I did never ever feel that I was using someone else property!!! Imagine those feelings at a government sector with learning environment and envision when it is your dream place to work as if you achieved something! A part of dream came true but you know what with roses, there comes thorns!!! How were those thorns ??? Those were in form of an infuriation :P so, will you believe that there are irritating feelings at one of your favorite places!!! Is not looking weird !
Guess what can be that annoying stuff at your dream place, you must give it a try. Lets go ahead thinking about the room components; accessories or furniture or any other materialistic stuff or any random guess! yeah one other guess can be the persons. So, what do you expect what was that ? Are you thrilled about knowing the secret irritating stuff ! Revealing the top secret and here is the Table belonged to my teacher and shared by me for work activities. During my starting days, I just ignored as I thought that it would be better with the passage of time. What do you think was irritating with the Table ??? So let me tell you very clearly that it was messy and the items like books, notes and even computer system was placed in an unorganized manner. To my surprise, he did never ask any sweeper to work for his pity Table. Well, one day what happened ?
I gathered enough confidence to discuss about the cleanliness of the Table as it was influencing my performance. During discussion, I observed his expressions and I predicted that he will say me to leave the room and find another place to work. But the results were totally opposite to what I figured out. After listening me conscientiously, he allowed me to make the Table clean. When I visited his office yesterday for research discussion, I again found the Table very muddy. Taking advantages of his absence, I not only cleaned the Table as well put the books, notes and reports in better arrangement. It was looking quite better as can be seen in the photo. It is my innermost feeling that whenever I have done the cleaning and managed the things around me by myself, I felt great having a feeling of being content. It might be because of the fact that cleanliness completes half the faith. Seeing yourself reaching the faith goals add values to the little acts of daily life. Last but not least do what makes you feel better and whatever disturbs you let that go.
