Meet Rohan – your regular office guy, a BPO employee living the typical stressed-out life. Every day, Rohan worked for 12 long hours, answering calls from cranky customers and getting scolded for things he had no control over. His salary? Just enough to cover rent, food, and his chai addiction.
Rohan wasn’t unhappy, but life felt meh. Wake up, work, eat, sleep, repeat. It was like living inside a loop that never ended.
One evening, while scrolling Instagram during his chai break, Rohan stumbled upon a video with a catchy title – “How I Quit My Job and Started a Dropshipping Business.” Intrigued, he watched it. And then, boom! It was like his brain had a power cut and then restarted with new ideas.
“Bro, kya scene hai ye?” Rohan muttered to himself. “You mean, I don’t need a store, and I can sell products online without touching them?”
It sounded too good to be true. But something clicked in his mind – “If other people are doing it, why can’t I?”
The 1-Hour Hustle Begins
From that day, Rohan decided to learn everything about dropshipping. Every evening after his exhausting shift, he’d grab his chai and laptop, and for exactly one hour, he’d dive into dropshipping videos, guides, and memes (because obviously, the best learning happens with memes!).
For the next three months, Rohan stuck to his 1-hour-a-day routine like a pro. At first, he felt like a lost child in a candy store with all the information. But slowly, things started to make sense. He figured out which products to sell, how to create his store, and how to make ads that actually make people click.
Quitting the 9-to-5 (More Like 9-to-9)
One fine morning, without any second thoughts, Rohan walked into the office and dropped his resignation letter on his boss’s desk. “Yeh lo, sir. Main chalun!” His boss stared at him, speechless.
Now, Rohan wasn’t making big bucks from dropshipping, but the idea of not spending half his life answering calls made him feel like a winner. “It’s not about the money, it’s about the freedom, boss!” he said in his head as he walked out of the office building with swag.
Life on the Chill Side
Now, Rohan runs his store from the comfort of his bed, wearing pajamas and munching on Maggi at 11 AM. No alarms, no office gossip, no awkward team meetings. He only works 1-2 hours a day, and while his income is still growing, he is finally happy.
“Earlier, I spent 12 hours working to survive. Now I spend 2 hours doing what I like, and I still make money. Life toh sorted hai, bro!” Rohan grins every time he thinks about it. He finally has time to relax, take long naps, and watch TV shows guilt-free.
Sure, Rohan plans to scale his business soon – maybe run ads in different countries and find trending products. But for now, he is in no hurry. Life isn’t a race, after all. It’s about finding the right balance between working and chilling.
Moral of the Story
If life feels like a never-ending treadmill, maybe it’s time to hit pause, try something new, or simply hustle differently. Whether you take a break or start a side hustle, you deserve to feel alive, not just survive!
And if Rohan can go from “Hello, Sir, how may I help you?” to “Pajama CEO”, maybe you can too!
