"A day that spelt 'lazy'... no reason whatsoever... just it seems disturbing to not be working each day... and when you do not work each day according to a schedule... the entire process of habit forming that pre seeded... the day suddenly becomes a mystery of deeds, which normally would have worked in perfect unison," he wrote.

"And you wonder , why the day is not behaving the way you normally wish it to be. So if there is some understanding of this element within us , then 'may there be peace and calm around us' ..but for some it never happens .. and that is an added anxiety ..living in anxiety , they say, is harmful for the mind and body ..and leading an anxious day , on the weakness of this phenomena is un required," he added.

I get what he means! Working from home has blurred my lines too. If I don't stick to my schedule, the whole day feels wasted and I get anxious by evening. It's a real thing.

Respectfully, sir, while discipline is great, it's also okay to have a lazy day sometimes. The younger generation is burning out trying to emulate this "hustle 24/7" culture. Rest is not a crime.

Sheer dedication. After achieving everything, he still feels the need to work. That's why he is a legend. Meanwhile, some young stars take 2-year holidays after one film. 😅

His blog posts are so philosophical sometimes. "The day becomes a mystery of deeds" – what a beautiful way to put that unsettled feeling. Wishing him good health always!

For someone who has worked non-stop since the 70s, a break must feel alien. His routine is his anchor. But I hope he takes it easy sometimes too. Health comes first, sir!
