Disclaimer: This article does not aim to motivate, uplift, or emotionally stimulate the reader. It presents life exactly as it is — including the phases of boredom, neutrality, and flatness that everyone undergoes. Nothing here is advice or guidance; it is simply a realistic observation of the human mind and its natural transitions.

Life does not always begin with clarity. In the early stages, everything feels emotional, curious, colorful, and full of stimulation. But once a person enters the “mid of the river,” all signals disappear. There is no navigation, no assurance, no confirmation of possibilities or impossibilities. In that phase, there is only one weapon—patience. You keep putting your efforts, but beyond that, nothing else is in your control. Thinking nothing becomes the only solution, not because it is a teaching, but because the situation demands it.

For me, this phase is not a recent phenomenon. The pausing period of my life extended for more than 10–15 years. No support, no navigation, no emotional stimulation, nothing. Every day after my teenage years, I have been in the middle of the ocean. This is not a romanticized struggle. It is a plain, dull, colorless one. This is why my articles do not emerge from imagination. I don’t imagine first and then write. I live first and then calmly narrate the results. Whatever little forward vision I express is also rooted in practical reality.

So, what should be the conclusion of such a journey? There is no conclusion. Because life is not a movie. There is no beautiful ending or sad ending. It simply continues. If you see this as a story, it is flat. If you see this as a journey, it is raw. The only insight is: even when there is no stimulation to our neurological system, we must remain unshakable and quiet. The inward intellect stays with us—whether you call it intuition, awareness, or inner sound—but the surface-level psyche still undergoes pain, confusion, pressure, and emotional fatigue.

Even neutrality becomes a habit after some time, but certain days, the nervous system gets drained. Then it naturally expects some grounding—love, affection, or simple human stimulation. In my case, I have one internal companion of love, but it is entirely inward. No external stimulations. So even with inner awareness, surface-level pain still hits very hard. Crying, twisting, tilting, crushing—they all come. A spiritual person is not an exception.

This is why I say my articles are not suggestions, not free advice, not motivational speeches. I don’t write to make anyone feel high or inspired. I simply place the raw reality. When a mind is isolated, it has no escape. It has no entertainment. In that raw space, the psyche expands into new dimensions on its own. Those new doors are not opened intentionally or spiritually. They open because life forces you into a corner.

I do not highlight myself. I am not trying to project any greatness. My mind simply searches for space to breathe. It tries to open mystical windows inside a closed room. When such a window opens, you realize there are other paths too. But entering those paths is another long journey—another ocean, another confusion.

When there is no one opposing you, no one loving you, no one rejecting you, no one validating you, then who are you fighting? Where are you standing? What is that phase? Nobody knows. There is no report. Only patience, only journeying.

Even right now, as I speak, there is pressure in my head. But the only lesson I can share is this: don’t escape anything, and don’t indulge in anything. Just look at it. Every situation has its own synchronization time. You cannot force clarity. Clarity comes only after the psyche adjusts to the situation’s intensity. All you can do is continue your activity and observe.

If you ask the takeaway of this article—there is no emotional takeaway. Just continue the journey without excitement. You cannot oppose anyone here. You cannot fight. Sometimes the battle is only with yourself, and that is the most draining phase.

I speak not to advise anyone, but simply to record the raw feeling of my own journey. My articles are not colored, not decorated. Real life has no natural color. Emotions temporarily paint color, but after every interaction, every meeting, every external stimulation, there is a fall. Every evening feels like a drop. Every night asks a question.

This is the life of a person who is isolated for years. And this prolonged pausing period is not personal failure—it is the natural terrain of inner journey.

Motivational Speakers & Emotional Editing

One harsh reality: motivational speakers often skip the boring, slow-moving, colorless phases of life. They glamorize struggle and present only high points. They cut the boring scenes of reality and paste artificial highs. This gives temporary stimulation, but after a few hours, your mind returns to its grounded state. Then confusion multiplies. People want emotional highs, but they don’t want to face the prolonged stillness and emptiness that form the majority of life.

But if you are on an inward path, you cannot escape boredom. You must look directly at it. There is no “skip button.” You must observe boredom with clarity, because more than 50% of your life will pass in this state—no matter how rich you are, how successful you are, or how busy you are. Even the richest and most powerful people cannot escape this prolonged neutral zone.

The Reality of Stardom and Decline

Look at celebrities or movie stars. Their stardom holds for a period, then the market changes, the generation changes, the flow of the river changes. Even golden things of one era lose relevance in the next. But actors struggle to accept this. They cling to stimulation. They cannot accept, “I am no longer the hero.” That itself shows lack of realism.

True heroism is not about fighting villains or receiving applause. Real heroism is staying calm, grounded, unshakable—even when nobody questions you, nobody opposes you, nobody loves you, nobody validates you. That is the highest form of strength.

Facing the Boredom Without Escape

See life as it is. Don’t add pepper or salt just to feel better for a few seconds. That temporary stimulation falls within hours, and then confusion comes back harder. Instead, face the truth. Observe boredom. Observe neutrality. Observe the dullness. This is not negative thinking. It is realism.

Life will not give you emotional highs every day. Most days are flat. Some days are low. Few moments are high. And the longest portion of life is the “unidentified phase”—where nothing is happening, where you are simply existing.

That is the phase people fear the most, but that is the phase everyone must face.

Try to face the reality. It may not give stimulation, but it will show you what you truly are. And then continue the journey.
