            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>The Adult Knot</h3><p>I am a postgraduate, I spend my days thinking about current happenings, exams, career growth, stupid thing, overthink things which don’t matter and &quot;The Future.&quot; My life is a series of spreadsheets, LinkedIn updates, and high pressure expectations just like anyone.<br>But lately, I’ve realized something terrifying: The older I get, the worse I am at making decisions.<br>I overthink, I worry about what my neighbors think, I worry about &quot;market trends&quot; I’ve become so &quot;professional&quot; that I’ve forgotten how to be practical. Worrying has made me loose touch to a lot of things.</p><h3>The Solution</h3><p>So, I decided to hire a consultant!! Not a high priced career coach or a corporate guru.<br>I hired my 10 year old self,Think about it, When you were ten:<br> 1. If you liked someone, you asked them to play.<br> 2. If you were tired, you slept.<br> 3. If you didn’t know something, you asked &quot;Why?&quot; until it made sense.<br> 4. You didn’t care about &quot;personal branding&quot; You cared about whether the weather was good enough for cricket.</p><h3>What is this project?</h3><p>This Medium column is an experiment. I’m taking the complicated, messy, and stressful &quot;Adult Knots&quot; and handing them over to that 10 year old version of me. (any kind of issue from the lence of non biased judgments, open point of view, view point that would give you relaxation for a day ..jk)<br>We’re going to strip away the corporate jargon and the societal pressure until we find the simple truth at the center of the problem.</p><h3>Got a Knot?</h3><p>I want to help you untie yours, too. I’ve set up an anonymous &quot;Advice Box&quot; where you can drop your struggles career anxiety, relationship confusion, or just that nagging &quot;What If&quot; that won’t go away.<br>I won’t know who you are, but I’ll do my best to give you the honest, childish perspective you’ve probably been missing, bring just a hint of chill to your tsunami..!?</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSfzc_L6syYwl0Vrz0eP-GheMNmzP3RvF9hhIWMxKvcoIJjD-g%2Fviewform%3Fembedded%3Dtrue&amp;display_name=Google+Docs&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.google.com%2Fforms%2Fd%2Fe%2F1FAIpQLSfzc_L6syYwl0Vrz0eP-GheMNmzP3RvF9hhIWMxKvcoIJjD-g%2Fviewform%3Fusp%3Dsend_form&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2F8jr10qmudhcysJyaxSqTOGAaE0O3YNby_MKeMUlYU2Up3Rdn2yplbFBvMR_pNO1SS0zhqir3QKp339I%3Dw1200-h630-p&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;scroll=auto&amp;schema=google" width="760" height="675" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/ce08411e13b95d771b6b73c9dc0d9129/href">https://medium.com/media/ce08411e13b95d771b6b73c9dc0d9129/href</a></iframe><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=fcc53e345987" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
