Baby Steps

Have you ever felt that this is it, this is my breaking point and I am done. I can’t do it anymore, I give up. I know the answer is a 100% yes but, the point here is that you are still doing it, you are still living, you are reading this book so that you can find some direction. The point is, that you are not dead, and the life is still happening to you so why give up? Why surrender? Its okay to break at times, its okay to not feel like getting out of the bed, its ok to feel so sad that you can’t even eat but, this ends today. This ends now. You need to realize that the life around you is still happening. People are having fun and making the most of each day. You might be at a place where you feel that its not going to work for me but get up and move and feel the shift. Our mind is designed to believe. It believes what we see and experience. It doesn’t have to be real. For example, today go to a favorite place of yours and sit there for a while. Imagine that you are in a better...

Different clocks

There are hundreds and thousands of people that we meet in our lifetime, some of them get inside our close circle and with most of them we only interact once in our life. We often look at people and feel a certain way because of what they have achieved, and we have not. It gives us a feeling of sadness, anger, frustration and even pulls us towards depression at times. Why? Why do we do this when we have been time and again told that each one of us has a different journey, a different path and a different destination. We rush ourselves just to prove something to the world or to fit inside a box that is not even what we want but, something that the world is expecting from us. Even when we are not aware of what we truly need we rush into things and end up in misery. A very basic thing here to understand is that, everyone is different. You are different. You don’t have to compare yourself to something or someone, you don’t have to run for something that you are not designed for. Don’t...

Do it

It’s a common saying “Action speaks louder than words”. These days we all hear a lot about positivity. Positive living, positive thinking and so on. But, how much good will only thinking do when you do not put it in action. You could think of anything in the world but what difference will it make if it is only limited to your mind and is not reciprocating in form of action. For instance, you think every day to get healthy, have a fit body and mind but, all you do is lay on the couch and think. Will it make any difference? Let’s take another example. You hate your current job and have been wanting to quit it for very long now but, instead of planning how to go about it you keep on investing in thinking and result in doing nothing. Will this help in anything but increasing stress? So, thinking good and positive is okay. Its fine but, you need to move it out of your mind and DO IT. You have to do it to make it real, you have to do it to achieve it, you have to do it to make...

Align yourself

Align yourself Many times, I would say almost daily there is a time when you say I am too tired to do this, meet someone or even give a call. Why? The answer is very simple either your body is tired, or your mind is. It is not necessary that you feel exhausted only when there is physical labor involved. Hours of thinking will also result in the same tiredness. When you want to do something but can’t because you are either physically or mentally exhausted, it creates fiction in your being. It makes it difficult to do things that you love and really want to devote your time to. To overcome this, you need to find the root cause of what is bothering you. If its physical, take proper medication and rest, if its psychological or emotional, sort that clutter and try to focus.   A simple exercise like breathing can help you align yourself almost instantly. Inhale and count in your head till 5, then exhale and count in your head till 5 (On speed that suits you), repeated this...

We all share the same boat.

We all share the same boat This day, this week, this month or perhaps all your life you have been asking yourself, why me? With this why comes a thought that its only me that is suffering, its only me that is alone and miserable but, it is far from what the reality is. The truth is, everyone on this planet has or will experience whatever you are feeling today. Nothing that has happened to you is unique in nature. Loosing someone, feeling depressed, not getting what you want, being betrayed. All of this and more has been part of human existence since the beginning. Circling back to the Why? Your brain was developed to hunt and survive in the initial days of mankind. Though the brain has evolved making you who you are today but, the foundation is still to survive and not live. Thus, in this survival mode you are always hunting for things that are not meant to make you happy rather you are looking for evidences that support your thought of being unloved and rejected so that you c...
