What’s the first thought that comes to your mind when you hear the word Corporate? The first image that comes to your mind might be a well dressed gentleman ,holding a leather bag , having a smile on his face , going to office.

Have you ever wished to be in place of that man ? Well! If you had .Never make this wish ever again. Because what you are seeing is the tip of the iceberg.

The real dilemma lies way beneath and is out of the sight of common people. What you are seeing is just the outside . You cannot see what’s happening inside that well dressed fine looking person. How much pressure he is in ? How much tired he is ? You don’t even know that he is not getting enough sleep since the last 2 or 3 or God knows how many weeks.

Why? Because he has to work . He is bound to work for a multi billionaire and he has to work day and night sacrificing his heath, sleep and ,above all ,his happiness just in order to convert that billionaire into a trillionaire.

He has to work when you are enjoying your weekend or on a hiking trip with friends or on a long drive or enjoying coffee in the coldest winter days. He has to work because he is a modern day slave hiding under the tag of the corporate manager .

Although he knows this very well and deep inside he regrets each and every single minute he spends working for his so called multinational firm but he is bound to do so .

Bound by what? By the fear of getting economically poor? Or by the fear of not getting another cell in another person’s corporate jail? Or by the fear that he might not be able to fulfill his responsibilities the way he is doing now ?

No! . Although these fears are valid and comes in mind but the biggest thing by which he is bound is his own mind . Its his own psychology that never allows him take a step. Its the deep subconscious of slavery set in his mind by the effect of the environment and people around him . Because he has been seeing people around him doing the same slavery since his childhood and this is what makes him think that its the norm. Whereas in actual there can nothing be more abnormal than this …..

Break the chains surrounding your mind . Be a brave person . The world is so big. Live free. Get out of the cage and dive into the never ending horizon .

Live Happy !! Be Happy !! Do what makes you happy………..
