Twist and Turns of Life
Imagine a small fish living with its family happily and suddenly, a fisherman snatches it out of its comfort zone by catching it in the net, unable to fight, the poor creature dies. Imagine you are that fish. Horrifying it is, isn't it?
Well, if I bring myself to that exact position, of course not being a fish , but there are situations in human lives where we go on trying out every other option, but unwillingly we end up at something where our heart doesn't belong or maybe it would take some time to adjust.
One of such situations would be when you are happy & comfortable at your workplace and your company shifts you to a big, unknown city, where you have no contacts, no family and friends, there is different language and so on. Now, how would you cope up such a sudden dynamic change?
So, I was working at a private sector in Bangalore where my life was totally happening. Friends being family, the place being a second home to me, creating memories that turned into nostalgia.
A year back, because of some job requirement I had been transferred to Pune. I had never been put into such kind of situation before, it was a total new experience for me, I was forlorn , maybe I required time to adapt. Now that a year has passed, I would like to share all that it took me to be a person who can adapt to any situation.
So, if you are or going to fall in this situation, following are some key tips that's going to fill up you with positivity:
1) Share your feelings to a particular person you feel you are the most comfortable with.
2) Find a compatibility at your workplace, at least try to be outgoing and connect with your colleagues.
3) Keep calm, try to be sane and believe everything is going to be okay with time.

And the tips you mentioned are just a cherry on top of a cake.
