I wish I cared less: The Art of letting life be

-

   When I was in school, I feared public speaking to death because I was not well versed in English. Most of the time I didn't get a chance to speak because our class was so large. But when nothing else worked out, I had to speak. Things often got worse. I worried like hell. I could not focus on other things for the time being. Along with this, another matter of concern was “my image”. If I fumbled or couldn't speak well, how would I face my teachers and classmates? Now I wonder, what a stupid person I was? How under confident I was? I worried about the things that are just a cakewalk for most of you and for me now.  What if I had been a little more confident? How much stress could I have avoided in my childhood?  Now I understand that it was all in my imagination ... .Instead of worrying, I could have focused on improving my English speaking. Sometimes I wish I could go back in time and speak the way I do today? But, I know I can't. As the time and that platform a...

It's my life and I choose to grow

-

 




Our life is nothing but "our choices". Our choices determine the course of our lives. Everything that happens in our life, our struggles, our failures, our success and our relationships all depend upon our choices. Our choices are the default setting of our lives. 
 
Our choices are the inputs of our life. These are like commands we give to life for ourselves. And the results are the events that happens in our life. 

That's why, if you choose suffering, there will be suffering. If you choose freedom then there will be freedom. Similarly, if you choose growth, there will be growth, if you choose regrets, there will be regrets. 

Our mindset determines our choices, our choices determine our actions and our actions determine our life. So, I choose freedom over suffering. I choose efforts over results. I choose moving on over holding things. Moreover, I choose to grow and it's my default choice. 

I choose freedom over suffering

Our suffering is an outcome of overthinking. Overthinking is an outcome of the unfavorable results that we get in our life. But, above all our suffering is our choice. We suffer, because we choose it. We make a castle out of a hole. We take everything personally, we choose to carry the burden to our graves. We take other people's opinions quite seriously. We idealize a lot in our life. And that brings only suffering. 

But, what if I choose to let go of all? What if I choose freedom from all these things? 

Then you are choosing yourself, then you are choosing your freedom. It's your choice not to suffer anymore. 

If you choose freedom, then freedom is all yours. If you choose suffering, suffering is all yours. 

I choose efforts over results

It's our default setting, that we appreciate results, not efforts. By doing that we undermine not only our dear ones, but also ourselves. We often forget that sometimes learning or putting efforts is more crucial than success. Our learning stays with us forever. Our efforts not only make us strong but also open new gates for us to explore. Efforts pave the way for our growth. 

Sometimes our success finds its pathway through efforts. Thus, choose yourself by choosing your efforts over results. 

21 things you should stop doing if you want to succeed in life: Habits that hold you back

I choose living over regrets

We all are newbies here on this earth. We are bound to make mistakes. 

But we are not bound to have regrets for our failures, for our mistakes. Everybody makes mistakes, our mistakes are the sign that we are growing. Our regrets are the the sign of our weakness of holding things tightly. 

Thus, we hold enough… Now it's time to live. Now it's time to let go of regrets. 

Now I want to live like a free bird, I no longer want to hold my regrets. I want to take away only the learning of life, not regrets in life. I choose to live my life fully. I choose to accept myself the way I am. I choose not to criticize myself anymore. 

Life isn't fair but it's okay: Accept it and move forward

I choose peace over chaos

Chaos are everyday thing of life. There is so much for us to process in our lives and when we find it difficult …. it becomes chaos. 

But, how we handle our chaos determine our peace? Our reaction is what fuels to chaos. If we remain calm in chaotic situations, if we see everything from wider perspectives… things will started to make sense. We see why things are happening in that way. 

And peace become our thing. 

With this understanding I set my priorities high above chaos. One thing that become my thing is… 

“Our peace is our choice and our chaos is also our choice”.

I choose love over attachment

Earlier I used to think love means togetherness. Love means attachment. Love means making other person responsible for your happiness and for your life. 

But, as the time passed, as I gain a little consciousness.. I understand the rational meaning of love. Love means freedom to live. Love means being there for each other in the times of need. Love is like a unspoken language among persons. While attachment is like a fling, it is more like an obsession for being together. It put restrictions and suppress the freedom of not only the person but also the relationship. It suffocate the livingness of love. 

So, choose love over attachment, choose freedom in love over restrictions. 

I choose liveliness over living

Everybody has a definite time on earth. It's upto to them how they spend their time? For some people it is their usual thing, they just want to complete their given life, while for some life means "living with grace". By putting “life into living”. By embracing each and every adventure of nature. By accepting each and every opportunity of exploring life. By accepting each and every challenge with grace.. That life thrown at them. 

It's is upto to us.. Which way we want to live. How you want to see your life at your death bed? 

Thus, I decided to live my life by second version of it. I decided to choose liveliness over just living. I choose to grow gracefully in life. 

A letter to myself: About life, growth and healing

I choose to become myself over nice person

I could be wrong. I could be difficult to understand. Sometimes I could be the most annoying person in the room. 

But, I am myself. I choose to accept myself fully. I choose not to pretend to be a nice person. I choose not to feel guilty about it. I choose freedom from being a perfect person, who liked by everyone. 

All in all I choose to be what truly I am… without any second thought. Because, I know that accepting myself is the first and foremost step towards growth. 

Let go to grow: Why letting go is essential for happier life

 Key Takeaway

Our life is shorter than our thinking. We are way more capable than our thoughts. Our choices are way more important than our actions. Our peace is way more powerful than a chaotic mind. Our freedom is way more fruitful than our suffering. 

So, decide carefully or reflect upon your choices. Because, they are what … going to make your life. 

Remember you got only one life and why not to make it beautiful, worthy and fruitful, not only for you but also for the mankind.

Healing: A Journey From Broken to becoming

Sometimes life becomes hell not because we are working hard, but because we are getting nothing from our hardwork. We are getting nothing from our sacrifices. We often ignore the uncertainty of life, and think “if we work hard, we will achieve everything what we desire”. I also used to think this way and worked tirelessly for years. I want to achieve my dreams at any cost. I hold things tightly.  But, in the end I couldn't make it.  I am sure that many of you also went through the same pain. In those times we couldn't understand the importance of transition from broken to becoming through healing.   I am writing this blog to provide insights from my own journey of transition. So it can help others in their difficult times and they could find their transition worthy than mere a process.                   After healing, One thing I clearly understand is that .... now I no longer want to hold things tightly because I fo...

How to regain happiness in lost world

One thing you might all have noticed: Nowadays people live more in the virtual world than in the real world.   They are more interested in taking a picture of food, trips and uploading it on social media, than enjoying the experience and beauty of it.  They want millions of followers on social media, but not interested in making real life connections.  They want to earn fame, success and wealth. But, nobody focuses on earning happiness and contentment in life. In between all of this we lost our happiness.  This is how the lost world looks like. But why are they living like this?  They see wealth as a source to buy happiness in life. Like you all I also agree to an extent that money is important to survive. As money buys everything. It can give you a luxurious lifestyle, build connections,and sponsor your international trips. There is nothing which can't be done with money.  But, one thing I couldn't understand is that even though today's world is more ...
