The little things we choose not to do every millisecond will determine our lives
Photo by Jacek Dylag on Unsplash Every single thought we have, everything single word we say, and every single action we take in every millisecond will have consequences. Accepting that we are the boss of our own thoughts, that we are responsible for them, which by extension means that we create our own words we say…
Failing well leads to success. Keep failing to keep succeeding!
Photo by Estée Janssens on Unsplash Instead of being sad or dissatisfied with ourselves everytime we “fail”, what if we reframe “failure” as part of paving our way to success? What if we love and celebrate failure? What if we see “failure” as a building block of success? As part of the mosaic of success.…
Who is qualified to write a blog? How does it transform the writer, and at what cost?
Photo by Andrew Neel on Unsplash Who is qualified to write a blog? Who can afford it? Simple answer: anyone who can type on a keyboard and who has an internet connection. That’s basically everyone all of us know as people like us (not Octogenarians living in caves in the Himalayas) all have keyboards, an internet connection…
Is walking through air or on water a miracle? Or is everything that manifests in front of us a miracle?
Photo by Martin Reisch on Unsplash There are two ways to live our life. One is as though nothing that we can experience in our daily life is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. Instead of Googling to see what a miracle is, or what the definition of a miracle is, I…
Paving the way, one stone at a time. The future is built in the present, one step at a time.
Photo by Dan Gold on Unsplash Whenever I say “one step at a time”, friends tell me that I am not “thinking enough about the future”, or planning for the future. They say, this is short termism. I admit that it’s entirely possible that one can plan more for the future. But whatever plans for the…
Choose the stories you tell yourself about money and you can choose to smile or frown.
Photo by Sara Kurfeß on Unsplash Money is a story that drives many of our emotions and feelings. To be more accurate, the absence of money is the story we tell ourselves. We tell ourselves stories about money. That’s for sure. And that’s not a real problem. The real problem arises when we start believing that…
Our “beliefs” are in progress……..they are only “working hypothesis” and must be rejected when proven not to be valid.
Photo by Ian Espinosa on Unsplash When we say we “believe” in something, we are being lazy and we are accepting something as the truth, the undeniable truth, the permanent truth and the unchangeable truth, without checking it out whether it works or not. When we say we believe in something, we basically accept something as the truth…
Would we put off until another day something we really want to do, if we realise that we only have 24 hours to live deeply at a time.
Photo by Lalo on Unsplash When we talk about something being “permanent”, somehow we feel secure, we feel relaxed and we feel comfortable. Being a “permanent resident” of a country, or being a “permanent member of staff” of an organisation make some people feel comfortable. We also like to seek out “stability”. We crave for stability.…
We don’t need someone else to endorse us or confirm that we are special. We are all already super special.
Photo by sydney Rae on Unsplash We all want to feel special. And many of us are waiting for someone else to endorse us or confirm that we are special. Speak up and stand out. I am challenging to change the way you see yourself. You don’t have to look for your specialness. You don’t need…
We are not lying, we are just very good at fooling ourselves.
Photo by Tommy Lisbin on Unsplash We will not admit that we are lying, we are just good at fooling ourselves. We all know that eating one piece of chocolate cake feels really good, and eating two pieces makes us feel less good, and eating three pieces gives us a tummy pain, and one more piece we…
