That weird thing happened years ago.
Someone played with your heart 12 years ago.
Someone threw you out of their life 11 years ago.
Someone told you that you were not needed, 10 years ago.
Learn the lessons, forget the memory.
Allow yourself to heal, but do not allow that person again.
Be at peace and ease with past, but do not allow it to add to the present its cast.
Yesterday I had a usual meeting with my boss, and he told me to not worry about work.
He also offered to back me up for my work, and was glad I took some time to reflect.
I, in fact, offered to do some work today since I was offered in the evening, and he refused.
Bestest boss ever!!
An Uber/Ola comes to your place, and then you self-drive.
The cab waale Bhaiyas press brake without pressing the clutch or reducing the gear.
Almost every ride is a roller coaster ride.
Bro, this is how you do it:
In case of an automatic car, start from step 2.
It is such a simple exercise of driving with finesse, that a lot of people happen to skip it out.
It’s easy bro, super easy!
A call dropping off is a sign from the Universe that you don’t need to call back 🙂
A friend not talking is a sign of the Universe that you are not friends anyway.
A tight tee is a sign from the Universe that you need to lose more than the weight.
Signs are simply intuitions coming to life.
I’m going through a lot of emotions right now, so best to document them here:
As on date, I’m having roughly 3-4 book ideas.
I was struggling with which one to pick. 2-3 had great potential on selling THE moment I picked them up. One, which is the closest to my heart, will sell way better than these, if I market them right.
Guess which one did I pick?
The quick sell one or the huge sell one close to the heart?
I asked my therapist, “What if I tell myself that it is okay if someone responded in a bad manner? They might as well be suffering, right?”
She said:
Of course, it is a good thing to run a marathon.
But the best runners, train themselves before the event.
However, if you go haven’t trained yourself at all and you get up one day and go run, can you imagine what all pain will you endure?
And now imagine how long have you been running this marathon!
So the way to be actually able to run that marathon is to train our brain, to understand our emotions first, and why we feel in the pain.
Otherwise, it is only a continuous run of pain, not a marathon in reality.
Something really deep to reflect upon.
1. Taking no breaks
2. Taking others’ PoVs seriously
3. Not taking time to reflect
Let go of the need for validation.
Let go of the need to have the credit.
Let go of the illusion that you aren’t enough.
Let go of the fact that your childhood can’t change.
Let go of the fact that people will love you for your truth.
Let go of the people who don’t care for you as a human being.
Let go of the unprofessional people who want you to take care of 100% professionalism.
Let go, Nishtha. That is when you will truly be able to hold what is 100% yours – your positivity and power.
1. Help
2. It’s okay!
3. I am sorry.
4. I’ll go meditate now.
5. You’re doing a great job.
The reason for getting sad is never the real reason.
The loss.
The no.
The rejection.
The lack.
The “never”.
These are not the real reasons. They are just drapes to cover up the original reasons.
The real reason is we are crying for something deeper.
We believe we don’t matter.
We think that our work doesn’t make an impact.
Or our presence doesn’t make anyone happy.
Or that everything will be happy even if we left.
Or perhaps that there will never be a tomorrow.
That is the real thing that makes us sad.
Think through it about what made you sad recently.
The reason was one of these.
However, the truth of life is this:
YOU matter.
YOU are important.
YOUR work makes a difference.
YOUR absence would make things difficult.
YOU are needed.
This holds true irrespective of what ANYONE tells you.
Pause for a moment to read this.
Attention

Peace

Rest
Books
Reflection
Could we be asking for any more?
Law of attraction says that if you are looking for a partner, keep the seat next to you empty.
Thus, I purposefully do NOT keep the seat next to me empty 🙂
