No time, Really??

So when people first realize that I teach yoga! they give me a very mixed reaction. For some it's a wow thing and they even get intimidated. For others, it's like whatever. How does she manage to pay her bills?? Frankly, I don't always manage to do that and so I got married( I know many are cringing at my bad joke). But mostly people think that I would have a lot of time on my hand since I only work a few hours a week. It's when they get to know the other things I do, not directly for a living that I get a more serious reaction. 

How can you be into photography, read manuscripts, write columns and teach yoga?? And out of this, you only get paid to teach Yoga?? Why would you do that?? Yes, by those standards I probably work a 100 hours a week for measly returns. But it that the point?? The point is that with my short attention span I need to constantly keep doing newer things. This is often done to stay focused on the few basic things that I should be doing. 

I have been teaching Yoga for almost a decade now without a single boring day. Without even a passing feeling of wanting to quit. And that's because I am constantly doing so many other interesting things along with it that it always has the newness in it. It kind of charges me up for my other pursuits.

Obviously simplifying my life, having a great support system and enjoying each day has a charm to it that nothing else can match. Besides pursuing your passion and knowing that every person you know is envious of your life but just doesn't have the courage to live it!!
