Benefits of Spontaneity


Imagine a person working in a high pressure consulting job with extremely long hours.On one day of the week he is in Jakarta Indonesia at a clients and on the other he is advising another in San Diego.He literally lives out of a suitcase.He is stationed at the London office but base location is meaningless since he travels all the time.He has not bothered to rent or buy a house-he chooses Airbnb instead when he is in London few days per month.He has bloodshot eyes and a searing headache all the time.He does not remember the last time he could have a leisurely meal which lasted an hour and was at a table.

He has no personal time for hobbies,working out or even rest.His last relationship went down the drain when his half-thai girlfriend broke up with him as she accused him of utter neglect.He has not visited his parents in 1.5 years.

He is a living corpse in a suit

He craves to go scuba diving in the Maldives and shout his lungs out as he sky dives.

He craves life .

The only way he can do it is by breaking the rut and being spontaneous.

It is wonderful to be spontaneous because it helps:
  • Break the routine
  • Have new experiences
  • Enhance our creativity
  • Feel refreshed /rejuvenated

Hence I encourage you to embrace spontaneity.

Why we repeat same patterns in all relationships

The first meeting Fleeting glances Smiles and laughter Diner dates Walks on the beach Commitment Moving in together Disagreements Non-matching intimacy requirements Fights Explosive fights Quest for peace Breakup Zen meditation class Temporary peace Same patterns in next relationship(s) This is how relationships typically pan out and thereafter one wonders why each of my relationships followed the same course-same type of partner, same reasons for incompatibility ,same kinds of endings. The answer to this lies in wiring in childhood. In our development phases as children, we observe our immediate caregivers and our parents marriage is the first model for what a marriage looks like. What also matters is the quality of our relationship with opposite sex parent-it models our subsequent interactions with members of the opposite sex. If our opposite sex parent was abusive, we wow to ourselves never to be with someone like that. However, if we look back at our relat...
