Live ....Stop Trying!


No matter how much you try....

You wont be able to make everyone happy.There will always be something you could not do for the other side.There are parents ,teachers,friends,colleagues and people around you in all shapes and sizes.everyone expect something or other from you.You are expected to dress in a particular manner,speak courteously ,eat graciously,work your ass off ,learn for life ;still its not enough.


You will never be enough,So WHY worry?

Do your best ,leave the rest.So what is our best? Only you can decide.Set the expectations right from the beginning.If you have already given high hopes to others,its never too late to set the boundaries right.

People will forget what you said or did,They will only remember the way you made them feel.
Build a daily gratitude habit and feel more positive,less stressed,and sleep better.Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire .Moment when you are all fiery and living full; the crowd around you will set itself to its own periphery.

Empower them with empathy and kindness.Secret of good life lies in respecting yourself.
Respect Yourself and acknowledge your own feelings, World will acknowledge them.Its okay to take risks ,that is how we learn.

Respecting yourself will be a challenging concept to learn but I believe you can master it.

' To Stop' list

Everyday as I check in office ,I see lots of sticky notes pasted on boards,strewn  around wastebaskets.They were yesterday's 'TO DO' lists. Much of accomplished work ,ticked boxes or some not ticked too.A very good way to organize your work and get things accomplished. I have lot to be accomplished in my mind too. But my mind play games.It takes me to the trip of a far away land , land of apprehensions,sometime land of doubts and land of fear too. A dreamland of expectations has been visited a lot by me. Guilt trips are too often for a working mom like me who juggle PTA meets and boardroom meetings. Eureka! Seeing these sticky notes around, made me realize that what We need more is 'TO STOP' list; more than the To Do list to get us ahead with our work. Every morning lets make mental notes as well as visible reminders also of our 'To Stop' list.  What I need to tell my mind To Stop doing today is: Stop expecting and start giving Stop Telling an...

Burst the PoP

  When Theodore Roosevelt said,' Comparison is the thief of joy' he was explaining the Paradox of Possessions. More you have, the more coveted.No matter how recent model you got someone else will have a better model of a car or a watch. As we purchase something new, we experience the dopamine rush, the sense of achievement but its fleeting. To get that high again we go back to buy more or better, which is a vicious cycle and induces guilt as experienced by alcoholics and drug addicts. What is exciting and alluring becomes a norm in no time. New purchases lead to new expectations and we keep on raising the bar, we look for even better ones. It's a never-ending and is known as PoP-Paradox of Possessions. It's like the bottle of soda pop, once opened it fizzles out.     Close relationships, more than money or fame, are what keep people happy throughout their lives, a Harvard study revealed. Along with relationships, Experiences than possessions bring more happiness. Human...

Be a Copy Cat!

Two decades ago when I visited a restaurant for the first time with cousins, I didn’t know how to use my fork or where to place a serviette? I never wanted to embarrass my cousin that he has brought his small town silly baby sister to a plush place. But I managed the show just by imitating my senior cousin. Not only a restaurant, I came out of many such fixing situations where I never knew how to conduct myself, I just copied the people in front of me with a smile on my face and a confident gaze. So don’t think copying is bad, copying behavior to learn things is primitive. An infant learns by copying its parents and people around. A language is caught rather than taught by imitating. We work on our skill sets by following an ideal or mentor. We pickup many a traits of ours; which we like in our parents, friends and spouse subconsciously just by replicating them. Same can be applied to an interview scenario, where you are confused to choose what type of body language, to...
