one more step toward happiness and confidence

Everyone is bound to play one character, knowing nothing about what's going on and going with the flow, completely drowned in it. That's the encapsulation of human life, or should I say modern human life.

Believe me, that's not your purpose. You are not here for 25 years of study, 25 years of life, and another 25 years to upbring your offspring so they can live the same repetitive cycle of life. There is much more to it. A single pixel won’t make an image, but every single pixel is unique and has a purpose. The same goes for every life. I can't tell you what it is because everyone is unique and special. You have to find out for yourself.

When you reach out to the world, tangible or intangible, you watch people crying over their problems. Buddy, you gotta relax. Crying over it won’t fix it. If it's fixable, you have to fix it first, and if it's not, crying won’t make any difference. What I’ve learned from life is that it goes on, and you deserve to feel its beauty.

Here are some tips to feel it:

Stop blaming yourself; it won’t make things better.
Stop blaming people for problems; it makes things much worse.
Stop taking everything to your ego; it won’t help you think clearly.

Now, if you are still reading this, you might be thinking, "That's what all the religious stuff says," but how do you do that? For starters, try to start small and extend your limits as far as you want.

Here, it should be noted that being cool about this stuff does not mean being a coward. Speak and act when required. When you don’t get angry or frustrated, you will be able to act and speak more effectively and clearly.

I almost sound like a hippie, but who cares?

Cockroach Theory- A beautiful speech by Sundar Pichai

Lots of problems in our lives are comparatively smaller than we think, but our reaction towards them makes them much bigger and worse. I have written about it before, but today I'm going to share a story by Sundar Pichai; it may change your perspective on a few things in your life. At a restaurant, a cockroach suddenly flew from somewhere and sat on a lady. She started screaming out of fear. With a panic-stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group also got panicky. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach away, but it landed on another lady in the group. Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself, and observed the behavior of the cockroach on his shirt. When he wa...

Keeping Up With The Change

The world is in constant and rapid change, and you are the outcome of the experience of these changes. We have a tendency to resist changes that we don't want around us. Understanding what fuels this tendency is very important, as the outcome of our resistance brings actions that can forever change the course of our efforts. So, how and what drives our emotions that create the tendency to resist change? The most significant of all is the feeling of being redundant to society, the insecurity of not being able to participate in the new adaptation of generations. There are different changes that come from various aspects and perspectives of society's functions, some being progressive and some being degenerative, which is subject to debate and not discussed here. There are some questions that need to be answered, such as "Can there be any solution that can make the transition of change smoother?" and "How are changes made acceptable to the resisting m...

Not Going With The Flow

A few days ago, I read the quote, "Only dead fish go with the flow." My whole life, I tried to go against the flow. As a born rebel, I never learned to go with the flow, and I always tried to get things done my way (at least I tried and failed sometimes and succeeded many times). More or less, I was satisfied with how things were going (a sound-minded person doesn't need more than that) . Then, things happened, and you fell into the trap of society, thinking you need to change some things in your life to make it work . You start believing one side of the story as reality; you try to go with the flow, and you stop fighting as hard as you used to . You become so resilient that your instinct to fight back dies, and all you get is a metaphorical dead fish and the flow of society's opinion. Resilience against this simply doesn't work; it's not an option. It's a sissy move just to maintain the status quo (my failed experiment). What you really need is ...
