I would stick to my ways. I always believe that I am a misfit in this world because most of the people around me behave very differently from me. Now the point is, should I change my attitude just to adjust to my surrounding? No, I won't because I know that I am not dishonest and I never harm others so there is no question of changing myself according to those people who suppose to believe in all the negative ways of life. My reputation has to be intact so that I can face my conscience and in that phase the outer world cannot govern me. They are the hurdles of my life with whom I have to work and must not develop any personal relationship.

But everybody cannot adjust themselves to the different atmosphere and different people with whom you work. But there is an option always. If one cannot adjust, it is better to leave instead of getting suffocated in unfavorable condition. It is not practicable. As a petty entrepreneur, you may choose employees. In small organization, you may exercise influence for getting co workersof your choice. But it is usually nor possible. Persons of diggerent habits and mind set are required to work together as a team. Now if you feel suffocated in anofice envirnment, there is no guarantee that elsewhee you will get an environment of your liking. Actuallly ability to get on with all sorts of individuals is a virtue. Here on the Boddunan site itself, we find members with different mindset, ability and temperament. But we adjust with all.

Life is a novel. well quoted, But life is ever changing, dynamic and ever changing novel. Nobody knows what will be next. I remember aHindi song- Jindagi ek safar hai suhaana kal kya ho kisne jaana (Life is a pleasant journey. Nobody knows what happens tomorrow.)

First and foremost thing one has to remember is to get away from the chair be it TV viewing in home or your working chair in the office. I for one  i religiously get away from the chair and  ascend or descend using stair case and avoid lift.Both my office and my residence are located in multi storied buildings. This exercise rejuvenates me and help in reducing the ill effects of sedentary life.

It is a big problem these days. People do sit for hours and end up with various ailments. Exercising even once a day does make a difference if not totally as mentioned in the article regarding the gym goers. It is more beneficial to take in between breaks even if it is to move to a different chair. Even stretching , doing a bit of shoulder movement and head movement ,when very busy or closing the eyes for a while can reduce strain if working in front of computer for long hours.

Well said. It's the person concerned and his inner traits that makes a vast difference. It's your decision and willingness that makes good or bad out of you. Of course if one faces a few compelling situations that varies from his nature, he has no other option but to leave the scenario.

@Jeets, as you said, we do respond to different situations depending upon the stimulus( here, behavior of various people) . We may be peace loving people at heart but if we encounter dishonesty or aggressiveness ,we do react accordingly. But reputation is not something earned depending on your reactions or backbiters. Reputation is gained over the years. A person who is calm and peace loving by nature  will ultimately be seen the way he is because his natural instinct or reaction would be to sort out matters or stay away from such people or mend bridges. Likewise an honest person will be judged based on his work and not on what people speak behind his back.

Every one of us is different, with unique thoughts, principles and philosophy. It is not the external nature, but our internal nature that decides who we are and what we should become. The moment I become a slave of the surrounding, I lose my individuality or I lose my control over my life. But if the situation compels me to change my real nature and force me through a negative track against my conscience, I have no other option but to leave that environment.

Society is made of Good and Bad. Society is not entirely made of good people or entirely made of people. Akin to this there are good people and Bad people as well. Those who wanted to lead a good life have chosen the Good in the society. And those who wanted to lead a bad and dishonest life have chosen Bad in the society. So it's obvious that you always have an option and choose.
