What happens when you try to become like others?

Many people will influence you with their speeches, Be YOURSELF!!, "don't be like others". I hope they never told you WHY? In today's world, We get attracted very soon by somebody else's life. See!! he got a car in his teenage, that kid is a millionaire, she went abroad and earns in dollars, That person has a cozy lifestyle while I am sitting at home struggling with a job that only pays me in thousands. Now the question is, ARE YOU HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU ARE DOING? If you are happy, why are you even interested in the crap, What others are doing?  Do you know, What happens to you when you try to become like others? When you introduce yourself like someone else to somebody, you lie to yourself and lie to others. Now you might be thinking ..... WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL IN LYING?? Buddy, the deal you are making here is of yourself. How many lies are you gonna tell? And most importantly, How many will you remember? One day in this process of lying, you yourself will forget...

Thinking about quitting the job?

Right Now, you might be confused about your current job and would be in a process of quitting it - RIGHT ? Now, stop the wheels of your mind here for a minute and ask yourself, WHY ARE YOU UNHAPPY WITH THE JOB ? Is it the job responsibility? Is it the environment? Is it the team? Are you physically and mentally well? Salary constraints? Growth constraints? Got Bored? Sometimes, when you are unhappy with a job; Trust Me, Quitting is not always the solution to that . Maybe you don't like the project you are working on. Maybe the reason is the environment and the team. And there are many other reasons that you need to find yourself Go Back to the days, when you used to enjoy the same job/work . Remember the day when you felt MOST PRODUCTIVE in that job. Try to repeat the things that made you most productive again for some time for testing. What was it that motivated you to get up every day from bed and reach the workplace?  Sometimes, the key to solving the problems is asking the rig...

Key Takeaways on book "AS A Man Thinketh"

 Just completed the book " AS A MAN THINKETH " by JAMES ALLEN . It is a small-sized 82-paged book that tells, "There is a very deep relationship between mind and thoughts". The book basically indicates that to clean your mind; keep your thoughts clean. Let's dive a bit deep into the points below: THOUGHT AND CHARACTER A man is the maker of himself. He will become, what he wills Our thoughts are the seeds, Actions are blossoms(flowers) and fruits are either joy or sorrow based on the seeds The Man is the master of thought, the molder of character, the maker and shaper of condition, environment, and destiny Right application of thoughts ascends a man above divinity and wrong application of thoughts descend him below the beast Man is the master of thought even in his most weaker and abandoned state EFFECT OF THOUGHTS ON CIRCUMSTANCES A man's mind is like a garden, Whatever you cultivate will bring forth. So cultivate good thoughts otherwise weed will grow and w...

Importance of our energy

Energy - A currency that we invest every day in our daily chores.  Your energy renews every day. When you wake up, You are full of PHYSICAL, EMOTIONAL, SPIRITUAL, and MENTAL energy. So!!!! What's the first task that you do in the day?? You check your WhatsApp, Instagram and that scrolling never wants to end, right? Do you know, when you wake up, you are the most energetic at that time and you spend this energy on Social Media.   After that, very little or no energy is left for the important tasks, Because It's already gone.  Now Imagine this with me, You wake up at your pace, meditate for some time. You do not touch your phone, Instead, you complete some important chores and maybe learn something new that makes you enthusiastic and gives you the reason to get out of your bed... Isn't this life beautiful ?? Energy plays a very important role in the accomplishments. When someone asks you to complete a task and you say, "I can't, I don't have time". Believe...

Optimism can be learned from anyone - Not only influencers

I have a beautiful home - Everyone has. In 2021, It needed some repairs. So my dad hired a construction team that consisted of a senior and 3 laborers. Every day, the team would come. The senior would command the laborers, they used to work - an everyday story it was. But I observed something in one of them that changed the view of my life - One of the laborers A lively human - who couldn't listen, who couldn't speak - name's SHIVA. Every day, when Shiva came to work, he would greet everyone happily, with his big smile😁. He couldn't speak but still was very chirpy. His voice made everyone smile. Without any reason, he used to laugh his heart out. There was a space between his two teeth that looked kinda cute and funny when he laughed.  πŸ˜‚ There everyone got exhausted till the end of the day and here he used to dance without any music. Maybe, his lively heartbeat was his music . He helped and cared for everyone in his team, A real Team player.  The enthusiasm in him i...

Can you become a manager by just getting promoted?

Need a specific definition of management??? NAH!! - It's many things at the same time. It is creativity, innovation, novelty, and art that aids in bringing people from different beliefs and cultures, TOGETHER. A Manager is a BATMAN - Possessing so many qualities in one person How do people become managers, Normally? The normal way of reaching a Managerial position is from Intern → executive → associate → Senior → Manager.  It is basically a Promotion Chain .  Believe me, before being a manager you need to be an OBSERVER first. You need to observe yourself and the people around you. You are the CREATOR OF THE ENVIRONMENT in which others work. You will have to be many personalities at the same time. Do you think you can do these by simply getting PROMOTED? BTW, Promotions only manipulate you for some time,  they can't change the inner you  Promotion doesn't make you an OBSERVER, EMPATHY does .  When a manager is able to put himself into the shoes of his peop...

Are you a leader or do you lead???

There are LEADERS  and there are THOSE WHO LEAD -   There is a slight yet very big difference between these two terms. Leaders are ones who have influence and power in hand. They motivate their employees/team for a certain task. The motivation can be in the form of promotion, compensation, holidays, etc.  But what happens when the task is over? Does the employee/team remain motivated for the next day, for the next week, or year? The answer is NO. Once the target is complete, your employees/team comes back to the same state they were and you have to motivate them again. All-in-all, you manipulated them and Not motivate them - MANIPULATED Now let's take about "THOSE WHO LEAD" - These are the ones who do not just MOTIVATE but they INSPIRE.  You follow them because you believe what these leaders believe. You follow them for yourselves and not for anyone else. Their words reach your hearts directly and we have an unexplainable emotion for them. You are influenced ...

EXPLORE YOURSELF

Life is full of wrong and right turns. You have to pass through these turns to get to the right path.  Sometimes na, it happens .... it happens that before getting to the right path, we take some wrong turns. It is called EXPLORATION You are probably in the exploration stage of your life , where you are taking turns, staying there for a while, and observing things. And now you have started feeling stuck. By the way, Feeling stuck is good. It is a reminder, HEY, TIME TO TAKE THE NEXT TURN !!! and   BELIEVE ME!!! It's worth taking. When you move, you GROW and become a better DECISION MAKER . You become more EXPERIENCED.  Experience is the best teacher and Movement is an important aspect of life. Move but don't run. Move- experience-learn at your own pace -  INTERNAL EXPLORATION.  Remember, Every time, switching situations don't help.... in turn.... it might get you stuck in another situation. Maybe, some aspects of that situation need to be changed and not ...

To live life on your terms, You have to be brave!!!

 Watched a movie some days back. The movie was amazing and taught me two very important things about life. So I thought to share it with you all.  To live life on your terms, You have to be brave. It's because you have to pay a heavy cost. You lose relations, friends, love, peace of mind, attachments. Yes!! you have to be brave, brave enough to pay this cost. And then one day, when you come out of those bars, you will love the sky above you You cannot catch everything in life. No matter how fast you run, you will always miss something, Always!!! So.... why don't you stop at some places and rest? Don't run so fast that you leave behind the moments that were worth experiencing

Why I am starting writing this blog?

Lately, I have been observing things in my life  πŸ‘€ .  There's been a lot of struggle. There are a bunch of thoughts that come and go every day. Some are positive and some are negative. These thoughts flow through my mind every time and are like a stream of water that never stops.  Feels like, I have no control over them. So I am starting this blog, to have self-control . When we write, our thoughts stop and we are unable to shift topics in our mind at the same pace. We STOP  somewhere. Our thoughts become structured and we are able to focus deeper πŸ˜… .  I hope this journey brings me and the readers a lot of ways to deal with the ups and downs by being optimistic. #STAY TUNED
