Season 2 Episode 1: Things I learned from my working era

Everyday All I did was wake up and went for work, i had the most sad and happy times during this phase of mine, im not saying it was like a jail or something, in jail we could atleast see the sunlight, whereas in the corporate world you see tired people all around.

*Intro Musci

I’m soooo happy today, it is due to two main reason the first one is we topped in the 7th position in the Apple podcast charts in stand up and the second reason is I quit my job.

Wait the second one doesnt necessarily makes my completely happy nor sad, its just I miss that phase as well as I don’t wana go back there.

This is me your host Dhiya from the the dhiya talks and welcome back to the new episode where I’m gonna discuss about the things i learned from my work life and you too should if you are planning to work in the corporate world or maybe you are trying to be successful in your career.

Before we start let me thank all my dear listeners for actively engaging in the show and making it a success and don’t forget to connect with me through instagram where you get all the updates regarding new episode, also I hope you have listned to my previous episode regarding this same topic, so that you can understand this episode much better.

now let come back to the topic, as I said earlier today lets talk about the things i learned from my 2 months of work life. I thought it would be really hard for me to accommodate myself from the sudden difference in the environement, that is from a college to a corporate world. I practised tons of time of how to behave with the collogues and how to interact with them. but what happened there was beyond my expectation, and i snapped in without an awkwardness.

I’m not saying that everyone was sooo perfect that each and everyone matched my vibe, but there was defenitely behaviours from people I didn’t like, thats the number one lesson for you if you are in a similar situation : accept it and move on. for example, one of your collegue is a very straight forward person and you don’t like that character of them, but there will be others that prefer that kind of attitude over soft spoken people, so what we have to do is accept the fact that, that person is of that particular trait and we can’t do anything about it. Learning to accept the way people behave can be so difficult at times, but gradually you learn to control your emotions. i swear its worth it. So that was the first tip from me, learning to accept the way the situation or a person is and move on.

the next tip is for people pleasers, learn to say NO. sometimes your boss might give you extra work and you are one of the people pleasers and you cant utter the work NO. you get up from the place and stand up for yourself because no ones is gonna do that for you. In my case, it was not that the managers gave me extra work load or something, its one of the the things i learned from certain circumstances. along with this tip let me add up that everything is temporary in life, even you yourself in temporary, you don’t have to fear what others will think about you. This is one of the life lessons I learned from my workplace and workforce. one day you will be friends with a person and the next day the person might behave differnetly, this really happened with me.

Me being a psychology student, first always analyses the situation of the opposite person, like, whats the real reason that made this particular person to behave this particualar way, and secondly I’ll get into action, I’m not saying that i will hit the person or try to harm, i always confronts, i’m a person who goes forward and says it if i don’t like something. Okay we went too far, what i was saying is, the people you consider permenent in life right now are NOT, in fact they are just phases that might or might not teach you new lessons in life, whom to trust, how to consider and so on. dammnn i must change the genre of my podcast to life motivations.

the forth tip is to be yourself, the corporate era in my life really changed the way I think, i learned that I don’t have to be someones else, you just have to be yourself and enjoy it. maybe for example in the first case i said, a friend is too staright forward and people didn’t like it, that doesn’t mean she has to change for others, she just have to be herself and there are others that love that behaviour.

the last lesson I learned, is one of the most important thing, atleast as i consider, its actually the secret key towards happiness. i don’t usually reveal secrets, but i want you guys to know this, so that you people can be happy too. its nothing but learn to be happy alone, wait don’t skip, its not that simple as you think. let me tell you my example openly, so i had this crush towards a person and I liked him really good, i know most of the people will be able to relate to the next lines im gonna tell, my mood entirely depends on the way that person talked to me. if he talks to me, gives me immense attention and smiles at me, i’ll be in cloud 9, whereas if he didn’t give me enough attention, I’ll be soo mad and unhappy. SEEE i knew that you all smirked, ‘cause y’all found this relatable. After this, i started asking myself whether a random person was worth your happiness and mood, and whether the value of your happiness in another people, i started to question myself and gradually, i sorted this out. Now i feel like i love even the small things i see, i find joy in even the wind, the moon, plants, its like i opened my eyes and started to see the world again without having to depend on others for my happiness. Hey wait maybe i should write a book on this and I’ll be a bestseller yeaaayy.

there are other things i learned as well, like having self-respect, setting boundaries, learning to love yourself, loving solitude, making others smile etc. but no time to give a long philosophical speech on these, let me end this episode by concluding that if you have noted down these lessons in your head, you have now gained the superpower to deal with your emotions and stay healthy in a corporate life and now don’t forget to follow me on instagram and other social media platforms including my YT channel, until the next episode, this is me dhiya from the dhiya talks. tata love you guys.
