Acharya Prashant addresses the questioner's concern about being overly focused on work and perfectionism, stating that it is a great fortune in life to have work that one can fully immerse oneself in. He explains that being able to forget about time and the world through one's work is a significant blessing, and if one has chosen the right kind of work, they should continue with it. He suggests that the dedication to a task is not a problem but rather a positive attribute of a meaningful life. Regarding the perceived lack of a practical life involving social circles and family, Acharya Prashant points out that the availability of high-quality human company is often a matter of random luck and circumstances. Since the right kind of people are rare, one should not be insistent on their presence or feel that life is incomplete without them. He encourages finding companionship in other forms, such as literature, art, ideas, and travel, which he considers to be every bit as practical as physical human interaction. He emphasizes that while human company is valuable because humans are conscious entities, books are reliable companions that do not change or lie. He advises against brooding over missing company and instead suggests adding value to one's life by challenging and enriching oneself through various available means. By focusing on self-improvement and exploring intellectual or creative pursuits, one can overcome feelings of loneliness and lead a fulfilling life regardless of social circumstances.
