You are always going to suffer if you want to call someone each time you feel low or bored. To be able to help yourself is not a superpower. It is a necessity.
People who do bad things aren’t necessarily bad people. Nor do they do it on purpose, to everyone, everywhere. It is just that in that moment, they made a poor choice, they were upset, they were under pressure, were angry, frustrated or a combination of all of these. Because they didn’t know it, they even continued validating that poor choice.
The sad thing about finding your peace is that the ones around you who haven’t found theirs will do everything – drama, “love”, force, blackmail, etc., to force you to be like them.
But that my friend, is your true test of staying peaceful.
Sometimes I come across people on social media who are easy to criticise others, especially by tagging them. Mostly it is from people who have made proven wealth on social, and think they are entitled. Truth be told, nothing entitles you to make fun of others. Even if they do such acts.
You will never be able to learn if you think you know everything. Especially from the ones younger than you.
Life is too short to be writing a “report this profile” post on LinkedIn, unless you are SRK. Report them, block them, and move on.
As kids we used to dance because we loved dancing. As adults, we love dancing because we are done with getting hurt.
Secure bosses make happy teams. Happy teams make happy work. Happy work makes everyone happy.
Insecure bosses pile up work, without trust. Lack of trust creates tension. Tension creates lack of productivity. Lack of productivity creates sad people. Sad people move on. And the team eventually becomes mediocre.
Never trust someone who does not dance to “Gallan goodiyaan” – no matter where it is being played 🙂
Sometimes encouragement is a mask from people who cannot stop discouraging you. They encourage because they do not want to sound as “discouraging” but the encouragement is surrounded with so many caveats that we don’t want it anymore.
