Shouting out loud works.
And then it says the trust of the person shouted at.
Our goal is to go far, together. Not fast and lonely.
Letting your life and lifestyle make its imprint, instead of shouting to get things done – is a great thing to begin with. That never made ends.
Every single day we have, we say more than what we speak.
Most people believe people judge them by what they speak. Speaking doesn’t generate trust. It’s just a validation of who you are.
What you don’t say and do it, decides what people will think of you.
Who you are inside, people will always know about it. Never an exception.
What you are speaks so loudly to me that I can barely hear what you say.

The question, then, is not “how do I make myself liked by them?”
The question is “how do I be the same inside and outside?”
Like a postcard. Not an envelope.
If something in the work goes wrong, do you own it up or let it hide under the covers – until it finally does come out!
If someone in the team has failed to deliver on a project, do you help them out or do you go to the manager?
If someone in family wants a solution, do you sit and listen?
What we stand for, stands along with us.
What we do, becomes our bio-data.
The real choice is when we have a dilemma, not when life is vanilla.
The sound of people singing in the home next to mine.
Crackling of leaves in my own home.
Sound of one vehicle passing by.
Modi Ji’s speech in the neighbourhood.
Dogs barking yards away.
Be grateful for what you can hear when there is no veil to hide it. The veil will come soon.
What would a young and educated person do?
A young and an educated person has all the right to get out of their home and hang around. Madness is cool.
But wait, when is this madness really cool?
If you want to set an example to change the world, be someone who is inside their homes and does NOT get out even if they are very sure of the fact that nothing will happen to them.
Be sure of the fact that you being inside could save thousands of people. Respect that and stay indoors.
Use this time to meditate rigorously.
Eat less. Set a time table. Grow your emotional strength.
Meditate. Go within. What comes without, is going to be something YOU are going to be proud of.
A problem.
On the outside world.
The world has almost stopped functioning.
Are you functioning internally and emotionally?
Inner strength. It is only going to help.
What if you shout at everyone at work and at home, and think you are a good person just because you are kind to people in a temple?
Your personality is defined by what you do consistently, everywhere.
If your personality changes and becomes different at different places, that’s conditional formatting.
That isn’t you.
The question, to consider then, is this: “Who or what you are in your most comfortable space?”
Do you want to retain that part of you or does it need some alteration?
Don’t think of change, think of who do you wish to become when that change becomes a part of you.
Think of you-ing, versus you-doing.
If hard work could solve all the problems…
…you know it doesn’t.
Except when it does.
Hard work, without putting in the right thoughts process and strategy, won’t ever come to rescue.
Having a laser like focus and not working hard for it, won’t either.
The goal, then, is to use your power of discernment, and decide if you really ought to be working hard Bro.
For the past few days, I’ve had a special disagreement for not clicking pictures.
Yes, it is strange.
Yes, it is weird.
And yes, it’s highly liberating.
The ability to enjoy nature and enjoy it without having the urge to share it out with others, is simply the best way to bring out your own nature.
Giving it a try once, is worth your peace of mind.
If you ever feel you can trust others, maybe there’s actually something to change.
Not with them, perhaps with your relationship with the person in the mirror.
Our relationships with others are simply a reflection of how we treat ourselves.
Since charity begins at home, so does trust begin with yourself.
Surprisingly, as you begin to develop that relationship with yourself, no one ever breaks your trust.
Dressing up like someone else.
Talking like someone else.
Talking to be liked by someone else, even though you want to be silent.
Going to disco because everyone (other than you) feels it’s cool.
Posting that content which “they” will like.
The list is endless, my friend. However, your life does have an end. The sad news is, you don’t know when.
Then waiting doesn’t make sense, right?
If you want to go out with me, behave like this.
What if, I accept you, where you are, just as you are, without giving up on who I am?
Every relationship, business or life, begins and ends with allowing the other person to just be.
Sadly, most of us expect them to leave their zones and come into ours, just because we feel it’s right.
If it indirectly means that they’re wrong, is telling the other person to be wrong an act of righteousness?
Sometimes, go against what you normally do.
Sometimes, smile at the person who irks you.
Sometimes, bless the person who has caused you the maximum pain.
Sometimes, just let people fly away with the credit.
Sometimes, sleep earlier than usual.
Sometimes, skip scrolling Instagram.
Sometimes, sit back and enjoy your life at home.
Sometimes, let others know their opinions matter.
Sometimes, just life be, instead of “doing” life.
“What do you do,” is a beautiful way to tell people what they shouldn’t be doing.
Most people don’t love their work, and those who do, will have it evident on their faces. So you needn’t ask them anyway.
Instead, create an environment for them where they are ready to open up. For example, “what keeps you happy,” or “what’s something interesting about you that makes you happily weird?”
Our job, as human beings, is not to go to the roots of “human doings”. Our job, is rather to bring out the “being” in every doing.
So, what do you do?
We could emulate a ton of failures right here, right now.
Here’s the root cause where they emerge from: failure to give.
Generosity is one of the biggest steps to becoming huge (and also monetising) in life.
If you don’t give before becoming huge, it is equivalent to your parents not loving you because you didn’t do any of your activities as a toddler.
They gave, and that’s why they have earned your respect and your love forever.
