To attract better, you have to become better.
You can’t do the same things and expect change.
Transform your mindset.
Upgrade your habits.
Think positive.
It all starts with you and how you feel about yourself.
That’s the only way forward; CONSISTENCY.
Be hopeful and consistent with your evolution.

We must understand how important it is to be consistent.
Everything that has value in life is a product of consistency.
Success, health, fitness, wealth, friendships, relationships, and all other aspirations are all about consistency.

It’s during the toughest times of your life that you’ll get to see the true colors of the people who say they care about you.
Notice who sticks around and who doesn’t.
And be grateful to those who leave you,
because they have given you the room to grow in the space they abandoned.
And appreciate the people who loved you when you didn’t feel lovable.

Bottom line is to be OK with giving the gift of your absence to those who do not appreciate and respect your presence.
Meanwhile, never forget to love & behold those closer to your heart who showed up for you.

YOUR DIET is not only what you eat,
it’s what you watch,
what you listen to,
what you read,
& the people you hang around.

Be mindful of the things you are putting into your body emotionally, physically and spiritually.

Six important guidelines in life:

1. When you are alone, mind your thoughts.
2. When you are with friends, mind your tongue.
3. When you are angry, mind your temper.
4. When you are with a group, mind your behavior.
5. When you are in trouble, mind your emotions.
6. When God starts blessing you, mind your ego.

True friends are not allies, they are lifelong companions.
I think as you grow older, you look for very different things in people.
Honesty.
Loyalty.
Integrity.
Consistency.

But most of all, you look for those who will stand right by your side in the time of tough, rough or rumble.
Those who are right there, and in that moment, you know they’ve got you & you got them.

If you feel like you’re torn between who the world is telling you to be and who your heart is telling you to be, go with your heart.
Always go with your heart.
The world may be telling you to go one way with your relationships, your career, your friendships, your home.
The world may be telling you to act a certain way,
be less emotional,
be more emotional,
be louder,
be softer,
to be something else.
Don’t listen.

Quiet down the outside world however you can meditate, take a trip, shut off your phone, open your journal and listen to what your heart is telling you deep inside.
Listen to how it feels about your career, your relationships.
Listen to how it feels about your life.
At the end of the day, you will never go wrong when you follow your heart because, that’s the AUTHENTIC version of you. (Not my words.)

The quality of a friendship should be measured on the strength of your bond and the abundance of love between you, not the number of times you catch up over coffee or go out drinking.
We all have different needs, schedules and responsibilities.
What’s important is you are there when it matters.

7 IMPORTANT LIFE LESSONS TO REMIND OURSELVES EVERY DAY:

1. Personality is not set in stone.
You are able to take control or change it the way you like.

2. Never leave your parents.
They are the reason you are here.

3. Never get confused to select between love and friendship.
Both have their respective parts to play.

4. When in anger, isolate yourself.
Give yourself some time.
Finally think about the situation again with a calm mind.

5. People say “Follow your heart”.
Not in every situation.
Instead “Listen to your heart. Act With Your Brain”.

6. Time heals almost everything.
Give some time and experience the change.

7. Thoughts control your Feelings.
Feelings control your Actions.
Actions control your Results.

I’ve had to learn the hard way who my real friends are, but the best way for me to tell is if they want to lift me up or bring me down.
I only want to be with people who support me and in turn make me feel stronger because of their love and belief in me and because of my love and belief in them.
You can’t have a friendship that’s one sided, you have to get as much as you give.

It might be worth letting a toxic person in your life know how you feel.
If they aren’t willing to change the way they treat you, consider not spending so much time with them.

Keep away from people who belittle your ambitions.

Don’t waste time with people who don’t appreciate and value you for everything you have to offer.
I see people keep chasing someone thinking they can change them or friends who don’t have their best interests at heart, but it doesn’t work that way.
One of the keys to lasting relationships and friendships is MUTUAL RESPECT.

Don’t squander your time chasing anyone who has told you they don’t want you around.
Evaluate all your relationships and weed out the negative ones.
Go where you are wanted and stray from where you aren’t.
Surround yourself with positive people and environments.

We can’t be positive and optimistic every day of the year, it’s natural.
Sometimes our light is as bright as the sun, and sometimes it can be a little faint.
It’s important to surround yourself with friends who love unconditionally.
These are the people we look to when we feel that all hope is lost.
True friends light up our lives and rekindle the light within us when our hope is weakened.

Good friends help you find the important things you’ve lost;
Your smile,
Your hope,
Your courage.

If you’re having a bad day, surround yourself with friends who will let their light shine over you.
At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.

Relationships between family, friends, significant others, and colleagues are complicated and full of learning experiences.
Nobody comes into this world knowing everything.
We all go through different experiences, make mistakes, have successes, and then make more mistakes that we can learn from.
The ability to trust and listen to the people in your life is the foundation all healthy relationships are built on.

While talking to friends, make sure you are really listening to what they have to say and aren’t distracted by something else.
You owe that to them and you would want the same in return.
Trust is a bond between two people that is found only when they are able to listen and understand where the other person is coming from.
That to me is the only key to friendships and relationships.

I’ve reached a point in my life where people’s words or actions mean close to nothing.
If I don’t see a consistent behaviour, it ain’t true.

The end.

True me.. Tap-867..

How rare the trust is these days, how small the case looks like a strong bond based on openness and honesty, how small the chance seems to be a bit of loyalty and commitment?!?
Even smaller is the chance of a combination of the above, smaller and almost rare.

We all want it, in fact we all call it.
We claim to be loyal, to be open, to be honest,
but if we are all, how does distrust arise?
The disappointment?
The abuse of trust and the use of someone else?

Whether it’s love, friendship or family.
We all want the same thing.
We all want respect, trust, honesty, communication, openness and loyalty consistently.
Be aware of your choices, your actions and consequences before you harm a relationship, a relationship that is self-reliant today.
If you want them to be true to you, then stay true to yourself first. (Not my words).

In our lives we experience many different kinds of friendships.
On the rare occasion we encounter someone so special that we just know we met for a reason.
These are the kinds of friendships that last forever no matter what city you live in or how often you speak,
no matter how old you get or what phase of life you are in.
It’s the type friendship that has no judgement and sticks by you even when you fuck up.
It’s the kind of friendship that makes you understand unconditional love.
Maybe you met your most special friend when you were 4, or 14, or 35… or maybe you are yet to cross paths.
It happens at different stages for different people.
But when it does, there is no greater comfort than knowing that this person will be right there beside you to share the happiness, the sadness and everything in-between.
Never, ever take these friendships for granted.

This paragraph is for my close friends. Yes i have a secret Instagram account since a month, it’s more like my travel timeline diary. Hardly 8-9 close friends know about it. Ask each other, let’s see who spills the bean first. I post few pics when i go to a new place, flight window seat view, some islands, coffee, the best pizza in town, my sneakers, it’s a raw me with privacy in focus. I hardly have 20 followers & i get 20-30 likes in each post. Recent 30 posts have likes or comments from 1 or 2 blue tick verified accounts.
NOW THE TASK;
My only rule to achieve something is; I allow myself 2 years to get it done or I just leave it like it didn’t exist. I was planning something big in 2019 for 3-4 months. Corona happened, i had to take a pause. I am already 3-4 months short of those 2 years. Go to that secret Instagram account, figure out what’s that i was working in 2019? Those blue tick accounts have a pattern. Once you have an idea about the answer, text me the title of it. The first person who gets it right, your expenses for our weekend trip & next vacation is on me.

True me.. Tap-768..

If I’ve learned anything from life,
it’s that sometimes the darkest times can bring us to the brightest places.
I’ve learned that the most toxic people can teach us the most important lessons;
that our most painful struggles can grant us the most necessary growth,
and that the most heartbreaking losses of friendship and love can make room for the most wonderful people.
I’ve learned that what seems like a curse in the moment can actually be a blessing,
and what seems like the end of the road is actually just the discovery that we are meant to travel down a different path.
I’ve learned that no matter how difficult things seem, there is always hope.
And I’ve learned that no matter how powerless we feel or how horrible things seem, we can’t give up.
We have to keep going.

Even when it’s scary, even when all of our strength seems gone, we have to keep picking ourselves back up and moving forward, because whatever we’re battling in the moment, it will pass, and we will make it through.
We’ve made it this far.
We can make it through whatever comes next.

In life, you will realise there is a role for everyone you meet.
Some will test you,
some will use you,
some will love you,
and
some will teach you,
some will bring light,
some will bring darkness.
With time people show true colours.

The minute you realise your worth, you shift your energy to attract people who respect your worth.
It starts with you first.
But it’s also true, the ones who are truly important are the ones who bring out the best in you.
They are the rare, consistent and amazing people who remind you why it’s worth it.
Your VALUE doesn’t decrease based on someone’s inability to see your WORTH.

Suddenly social media has created so many experts who brag about their success stories.
Most of these only talk about their success.
Half of these dumbfucks have little to nothing success in their field, rest half are just scammers.

Genuine people who made it big will never sell their recipe to success.
Because it’s personal.
My journey with my relationships, friendships, religion, finance & career, all are personal to me.
I may give tips to my son one day, but why will i tell some random person to follow my steps & make it happen, if i already made it so far walking on my own!!?
Nobody helped me become what i wanted to be.
The journey wasn’t smooth sailing.
And i also know nobody will put similar effort to be where i am.

Ask Elon Musk how he got into Tesla without founding it & how it’s the world’s highest valued automobile manufacturing company in stock market while making only 0.13% of cars in this world!!?
Will he ever tell you in a while how that happened?
It’s consistent rigorous efforts of time & discipline, that’s paying off right now.

Stop selling success stories.
Now we live in a world where people first need to know what they shouldn’t do.
I want more people to talk about setbacks.
Failures & struggles are fun too.
I don’t know why people avoid that part!
If you can’t enjoy the struggle, you don’t deserve the SUCCESS.

The average life span of a human is approximately 80 years. That’s equal to about 29,200 days. About 8030 of those are school days & university, leaving you with 21,170 days left. Let’s say you work for 40 years, that’s 14,600 days, leaving you with 6570 days. By the time you retire, you’ll be too weak to do as much as you could’ve. Almost 70% of your life is spent in school and work. So stop waiting until Friday, stop sleeping until 1:00 pm on weekends, stop telling yourself that the week will be over soon because that week might be your dream week. Spend every day like it’s your last & it’s your best. So go out with your friends, pull the all nighter, tell them how you feel, travel around the world, get your hair wet in pool, buy that expensive watch you desire, let go of toxic friendships, fix your GOALS and fetch them, do what your heart desires without hurting others. Don’t wait. Live a life you’d want to relive, or ur just cheating urself.

Liking someone is a choice. Choose those with whom you can vibe & grow. That’s an easy way to understand, appreciate, cherish & celebrate any equation. Life is fun, let it be.

True me.. Tap-585..

In case you want to grow into a bigger better person, your past mustn’t dictate your present or future. Most believe “past is 100% indicative of future”. Everyone screws up sometimes and we’ve all been hurt in some way, be taken advantage of or have been accepted less than we deserve, but you shouldn’t regret any of it as every negative situation is a chance to learn something and they help us make better choices.

The next time you’ll learn who you can trust, what you want in a friendship or relationship or a business partnership, how to read people and to detect insecurity, you figure out who you are and how to be yourself and most importantly to appreciate the good things in your life over own flaws. Life is fun, let it be.

Once in a while one friend or another asks me this question: “Tap, what you do when you are stressed!!?”.

OK. This one has two solutions for me;
1. Figure out who/what caused stress & kill that reason behind it silently.
2. Lift weights, do some 200 push-ups, look at my imperfect 5-pack abs in mirror, talk to my PhD research associates to figure out who is running ahead of me, login to my amazon seller portal to see how many boxes of whey protein we sold today, then have a pint of my favourite low calorie sugarfree ice cream in sea salt caramel flavour while watching Tom and Jerry.

Two easy ways actually. Most of the time i prefer the 2nd one because murder is still illegal. In case i get the opportunity to kill someone without getting punished, i would love to kill my bestie bitch by leaving her inside a huge bucket in any snowy swedish village during 2070 winter. If you are one of my close friends, you already know i am a simple stupid sober sassy person who is unaware of all emotional melodramas. Nobody is big enough to hurt me or give me stress. The worst things a human can do is; LIE. Every liar falls in line with every negative prediction. And i bet, after a while they seem fun & funny because of their repetitive pattern of lying. Fuck fake goodness. Tappie loves real people with clean intentions & bad will always work if it’s real.

I hangout with the same set of friends since past 500 years if i am right. Let me answer the reason why so!?? I already know who true friends are, so never really felt the need to have new ones. I am very cautious while living my life independently unless someone is this compatible, and by this I mean, they think the same, express the same ideas and they have the same values. Reason behind all is a flimsy world where people come to life with ulterior agendas. I have always said that i hate two kinds of people; 1-People who lie, 2-Inconsistent people.

And my observation says every inconsistent person is a low-key liar. And there is no big or small lies, every lie is a lie. Back to point 1 again, people who lie are nothing but boring. That’s the reason i have a small group of friends that i cherish like life. Liars never understand; BEING BAD IS ACCEPTABLE IF YOU ARE REAL.

Friendship is perhaps one of the deepest bonds in human life. It’s forged through mutual trust, unconditional support and selflessness. It doesn’t matter if you have a thousand friends on facebook twitter, instagram, snapchat or whatever. I mean, seriously how many of them do you actually talk to and hang out with!? In general, smart people have fewer friends. They realize the importance of having real friends and they value those deeply. Yes, the smarter you are, the fewer friends you have

Friendships work two ways. You must remain transparent no matter you are good or bad. My brain works on numbers, codes, data & business. I swear I love it when someone talks sense & cuts my point with logic. That’s how it should be. Most people don’t understand the difference between offending someone & proving someone wrong. You can prove someone wrong gently. People who talk sense don’t talk trash.

I have an amazing bond with few of my friends. The reason is simple; We dare to prove who’s/what’s wrong when it’s necessary, without offending each other. That’s the beauty of a real friendship. Appreciated.

Love those who love you. Your problems are yours & just yours. When you are feeling low, remember there are lot many people in this world who are in way worse situation compared to yours. Helping others is just another way to help yourself & feel fulfilled with life. And LOVE can’t hurt you so don’t mind exploring, those who hurt you aren’t your people. Few people will pretend to care, there are fake people with hidden agendas. Emotions are temporary & sometimes you just stop wanting such people. Being an adult is fun if you can enjoy life & have fun like kids.

Your life is in your control. Your destiny is in your control. Can’t say the same for your FATE.
