The Muddled Mind

You don't need to make a big change in your life to achieve anything. It can be a smaller one too. A marginal change in your life can make a big change. And you are not so busy or so old to make little changes in your life. Want to be fit? Start running for 15 mins in a single day. Want to learn something new? Pick up that new thing for 15 mins and start learning. You want to wake up early. Put an alarm 15 mins before your usual time and don't put it on snooze. We don't value tiny changes as much as we should. You don't need to invest your thought process or big-time in thinking how to do that or how much effort and time it requires at the initial level only. Because that unnecessary thoughts only lead to procrastination and making every task a big one. Don't think just do it. If you think about something do it within 5 minutes of thinking it, if you will delay it more than that then it will become a job that will require effort. And as it is proven if you consisten...

The Social Dilemma on Netflix. It looks such hypocrisy to write about this especially on the internet media itself. People are so hyped about this so I gave it a watch. And man it's horrifying AF. I got scared more than I have ever watched a horror series because yes this is true and yes it is happening and yes we know. Not giving any spoiler alert as you can go watch it on Netflix but in this post, I really am obliged to tell about how I feel about social media ruling our culture and life. And we KNOW all about this and we are still stuck in a trap.  I have honestly tried staying away from it for only 24 hours and it didn't work. I got anxiety, FOMO, and bored to death. The constant need to make updates on the world and people, all the data availability in just 1 click away and most importantly the urge to share and ask for opinions seem like a dire need to survive. There was a day when we were happy watching cartoons for 1 hour a day, playing hide and seek and cards with sibl...

In the bubble of patriarchy, we live in, What's the stand of a strong independent woman. Fighting for her family, dignity, sanity, and passion all the time at every step. No one believes her, why? Because she has strong opinions. No one believes her, why? Because she fights for herself alone. No one believes her, why? Because she raises a strong voice against any injustice or discrimination. No one believes her, why? Because she cannot be put into any labels. No one believes her, why? Because she is breaking all the shackles society and people are putting her into. No one believes her, why? Because she possesses better skills and knowledge and that can threaten 'some' people. No one believes her, why? Because she will still protect herself and rise above this hypocrisy. No one believes her, why? Because she aspires to be more than just labels. Hoping for the day when she will not have to prove her existence to anyone.

Appreciation. It's very important that you appreciate things, apprecuate people in your life and most importantly appreciate yourselves for being you. This kind gesture shouldn't be taken lightly or on your ego. Some of the appreciations we have started taking lightly. Apart from mother, father, family, cousins, friends, partner there are still some people who needs your appreciation. A person who cleans your house,  appreciate them to help you. A person working under you , appreciate them for their small achievement. A person who takes time to talk to you or hear you, appreciate them for being there. A person who brings food package or any delivery for you especially in this pandemic, appreciate their efforts and tell them how grateful you are. A person in office with whom you can share and learn, who is having your back in the hardest time, appreciate them for being so kind. A person who used to know are doing something different in their life or fulfilling their dreams and y...

It is okay . Breathe. Calm down. Drink a glass of water. You have to move on from your past things. You did things and things have happened to you. It doesn't mean that you have mood swings all the time. Dont feel that you are less worthy of anything. You are not. You are amazing. You are your dad's fav kid, you are fun person to hangout with and you are going to be happy and fun all the time.  You have to heal. Heal for the world. Heal for yourself. Heal for the people who love you.  You are never victim , you are survivor. Be a better version of yourself every day. Be more happier than last day. Be more compassionate to yourself. You are going to have great life. Just because something happened to you doesn't make you any less or you have to change yourself to someone even you cannot recognize. Accidents happen and people move on. That's how you have to move on. Just be yourself but better version and with better sensibility. Have that kind of confidence where nothing...

Precisely 84 days since I stepped out from my home. I came/shifted to my city right after lockdown started, little did I know that it would lead to such major pandemic and I will be the few lucky ones who  are going through all of this along with the family. So thanks to all the pampering and me being super lazy, i didnt want to step out at all. I was happy in my cocoon. Even stepping out gave me a mini heart stroke until very recently my maternal grandmother actually had a stroke and procrastinating for a week, I finally got hold of my courage and stepped out.  I thought it would be spooky ,empty roads and all that. But apparently people are stepping out. Just like people were carrying their helmet to avoid penalty, all thanks to the govt, now they are keeping their face covered with masks. I was surprised to see roads busy like old times.  Just a brief history, I haven't been in my hometown after Diwali last year and even when I came here this time, my only travel was f...

Dont think anything about what you are going to be in future or what you want Until and unless its in your hand right now, you have no right to think about that Else everything will happen just like the last few years which you have only end up thinking and wasting your precious time.  See what's your priority right now , think about it and then keep your future plans aside for later. Else you will be losing your today's precious time thinking about future and then regretting these same actions in future You have to accept that fact that you are not better than someone else in some particular field. There is no comparison and should not be any. Every human kind is different than one another. You can not or must not waste your life setting up a goal to be Iike someone else. Why you have this need to be known by someone  or do something just to be known or be popular then you are lacking serious motivation to do something good with your life  Stop proving yourself all the t...
