You can’t skip chapters, that’s not how life works.
You have to read every line, meet every character.
You won’t enjoy all of it.
Hell, some chapters will make you cry for weeks.
You will read things you don’t want to read.
You will have moments when you don’t want the pages to end.
But you have to keep going.
Stories keep the world revolving.
Live yours, don’t miss out.
Tap..✌️
Nobody’s perfect.
We make mistakes.
We say wrong things.
We do wrong things.
We fall.
We get up.
We learn.
We grow.
We move on.
We live.
Read last one once again.
Live.
Live your life fully.
Tap..✌️
Nobody’s perfect.
We make mistakes.
We say wrong things.
We do wrong things.
We fall.

We live!
You get what you expect, have you noticed that?
You expect to survive, and so you do.
You expect to have a roof over your head, and so you do.
You expect to live alright, and so you do.
But you don’t expect extraordinary things, so they don’t come.
You don’t expect magnificent money to flow into your experience and so it cannot get in.
The only thing that comes to you is what you are expecting to come to you.
Tap OUT..✌️
Wherever you are,
be there totally.
LIVE IN THE NOW.
In the end, only three things matter:
how much you loved,
how gently you lived,
and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.
– Buddha.
How to get rid of your adult problems;
– Wake up early.
– Work out regularly.
– Eat good, real food.
– Live below your means.
– Hangout with true friends who share similar goals & vision.
– Focus on building more than one source of income.
– Do what you love for work.
– Don’t get into meaningless relationships.
– Never hit the snooze button.
– Create a routine.
– Write down your plans & journal your life’s journey with it’s success.

I am slowly learning how to just be in this moment.
How to survive.
How to exist.
How to live.
How to thrive.
How to understand that I cannot control life.
How to understand that I can only experience life in both it’s light and it’s dark stages.
I am slowly learning how to laugh and cry and feel through it all.
I am learning how to welcome the confusion and the joy that come with loving and living and breaking.
I am slowly learning how to accept where I am.
I am slowly learning how to simply believe in what I am becoming.
I am becoming a better version of myself, and that journey is just AMAZING.
Tap OUT..✌️
You have to accept that some chapters in our lives have to close without closure.
There’s no point in losing yourself by trying to fix what’s meant to stay broken.
True self-care is not salt baths and chocolate cake.
It is making the choice to build a life you don’t need to regularly escape from.
And that often takes doing the thing you least want to do.
It often means looking at your failures and disappointments square in the eye and re-strategizing.
It is not satiating your immediate desires.
It is letting go.
It is choosing new.
It is disappointing some people.
It is making sacrifices for others.
It is living a way that other people won’t, so maybe you can live in a way that other people can’t.
Tap OUT..✌️
When your priorities are based on your habits, you’ll live a regretful life.
When your habits are based on your priorities, you’ll live a meaningful life!
EIGHT SENTENCES I WISH I’D READ SOONER;
• These hard times, this pain, these lessons; one day they’ll be your strength, your awareness, your blessings.
• Stop expecting honesty from people who lie to themselves.
• You’ll never look good trying to make someone look bad.
• Save your explanations for those that are determined to understand you.
• Give your silence to those that are determined to misunderstand you.
• Your life is too short to be unhappy. 5 days a week in exchange for 2 days of freedom; that’s not how you are supposed to live your life. Live & experience life everyday.
• Don’t be upset from people you don’t respect.
• Life is not tiring. Wanting life to be a certain way but not having the confidence to make it that way, is tiring.
Tap OUT..✌️
Be honest with yourself about:
What you want,
Who you want to be,
And the life you want to live.
Make your life about joy.
Celebrate your big and little wins.
Grow everyday.
Enjoy the first sip of your morning coffee, and the second and third and fourth.
Find something to smile about on your commute.
Give hugs often.
Compliment others whenever you can.
Get inspired.
Nourish yourself.
Go outside and spend time in nature.
Take chances.
Make the art.
Watch the sunrise.
Climb the mountain.
Because LIFE is just too short and fragile to not live a life of chasing joy.
Tap OUT..✌️
It never ceases to amaze me how time moves so quickly through our lives.
The older I get, I find that it just goes faster and faster.
When you are a kid, each day seems like it could last forever.
It makes me realize that we have to savor each moment, however big or small, and every person that comes into our lives.
Don’t let the day pass you by-do something meaningful for yourself or someone else.
The past is a ghost, the future is a dream and all we have is now.
Tap OUT..✌️
Somethings may don’t get better, but we do.
We get stronger.
We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are.
We fix what we can.
We adapt to what we can’t.
Some of us may never be fully okay, but at least we’re here.
We’re still trying.
We’re doing the best we can.
That’s worth celebrating too.
If you’re reading this, you made it to today, CONGRATULATIONS.
Life is fun, let it be.
Tap OUT..✌️
Life is precious, and it’s what you do with it that keeps you alive on the inside.
It’s not enough just to live and take that gift for granted.
Each one of us has fears, but the more we work to overcome them, the more we are able to enjoy our lives.
Fear varies by perspective or experience.
The thing is, if you’re living your life in fear, then you’re just not living.
I believe that life is a prize.
But to live doesn’t mean you’re alive.
Try to face one of your fears today.
Tap OUT..✌️
You can’t skip chapters, that’s not how life works.

You will have moments when you don’t want the pages to end.
But you have to keep going.
Stories keep the world revolving.
Live yours, don’t miss out.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. Time to clap for Liz Truss, the shortest serving prime minister in UK’s history. 6 weeks all it took to fuck the country’s economy & stock market, made it fall 310+ billion dollars. We also saw the lowest ever pound sterling to USD since 1985.)

If we want to see success in our lives, we must intentionally work towards what we’re purposed to do.
We cannot get distracted by anything outside of our purpose or compromise our creativity, vision, or convictions because we believe that we’ll obtain more success or get more recognition or praise through our change in direction.
It doesn’t work like that.
Because, success is connected to purpose, not trends of popularity.
One of the definitions of success is “the accomplishment of one’s goals”.
We have to keep OUR GOALS in front of us, not someone else’s.
So, stay on track.
Believe in yourself and your purpose.
Trust that as you stay faithful to what you know you ought to be doing, you will experience astronomical success that will leave you with a sense of fulfillment and will impact the world around you.
Tap OUT..✌️
You have one life.
Don’t spend it scrolling through everyone else’s life.
Don’t spend it wishing you had someone else’s life.
Don’t spend it comparing it to someone else’s life.
Don’t spend it competing with someone else’s life.
Don’t spend it talking about someone else’s life.
Don’t spend it recounting your mistakes.
Don’t spend it rehearsing your failures.
Don’t spend it focusing on your limitations.
Don’t spend it living in regret.
Don’t spend it paralyzed by fear.
Don’t spend it listening to the naysayers.
Don’t spend it living purposelessly.
You have one life. Live it.
Tap OUT..✌️
We have to realize that our lives could be gone in a moment.
There are no guarantees that we will be here at this time next year.
Learn to live each day to the fullest.
Don’t complain.
Don’t focus on what’s wrong.
Don’t retaliate to negative people.
Don’t react to negativity in general.
Be grateful for the opportunity to experience each day.
Be an authentic version of yourself shamelessly.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. Watch the economic story of UK, which is gonna get even more worse with time. Thanks to conservative dummies.

Tap OUT..✌️
You’ve got to ask yourself what you’re living for, who you’re living for, and if none of those answers begin with you then you’re living your life wrong.
You’re living a lie.
Everything you do should revolve around you.
Every person, every place, ever moment should start and end with you.
This is your life and you shouldn’t spend it on dull things, in people who don’t understand the type of love you carry within your bones.
Because you only live once and it’s your job to make it count.
So let every day be yours, own it and never apologize for being who you are.
Tap OUT..✌️
Take chances.
Strive to be the person who does things differently, because beautiful things are disappearing each day, and you cannot live your life according to the rules of those who have created a dying world.
You have to rewrite the rules.
You have to strive for more.
Just work to differentiate between the person you truly are, and the person the world has told you to be.
Figure out how you want to live your life on your own terms.
Figure out how to take up space within your own definition of what it means to live fully, and wholly, and in pursuit of the things that truly move you, inspire you, and add a rich happiness to your life.
Stand up for a future that is your own.
This is how revolutions were started.
This is how change occurs.
Tap OUT..✌️
Wake up early.
Drink coffee.
Work hard.
Be ambitious.
Keep your priorities straight.
Keel your mind right and your head up.
Do well.
Live well.
Dress really well.
Do what you love, love what you do.
It is time to start living.
BE YOU.

Do what you love.
And fuck everything else.
Love who you want to love.
And fuck their opinions.
Fuck their criticisms.
You deserve to live your life the way you want to live it.
Chase who you want.
Be who you want.
Dress how you want.
Speak what’s in your heart.
Worship what you believe in.
And be kind to others.
And fuck everything else.
Fuck the drama.
Fuck the pain.
Fuck the hate.
Fuck the social media manipulation.
Fuck that.
Be an authentic version of yourself.
Life is too short to die wishing you had done a little more. (Not my words.)

Tomorrow is not promised.
Not a single second or minute is promised.
So, live for today.
Keep the promises you make to yourself.
Take action on the things you desire and want.
Remind those that matter to you that they are loved and you are grateful for them.
Never leave someone you care about on negative terms.
Give more than you take.
Make the calls you’ve been telling yourself you’ll do ‘tomorrow’.
Let the small shit go.
Never go to bed angry or upset.
We will all die one day, so learn to live each day with the promise to yourself that it’ll be better than yesterday.
Tap OUT..✌️
I saw a post today that said, “When you finally learn your place in peoples lives, your feelings won’t get hurt. And loyalty doesn’t mean accepting unlimited amounts of inconsistency & pain from others”.
Whether it’s friends, family or whoever. I swear that’s the truth and one of the most important life lessons you’ll learn.
Make choices that make people wonder if you’ve lost your mind.
Disappoint people if needed.
Fly off the handle.
Learn to be alone.
Learn to be with others too.
Smile when you’re sad, just to confuse those who are trying to bring you down.
Live a good life.
Be kind when you can and understanding when you can’t.
Be irreplaceable, undefeatable, incorrigible.
Do all of the small things with grace, laughter and an unshakeable belief in what’s to come.
Don’t you worry.
Be a fearless authentic version of yourself.
Life is fun, let it be.
Tap OUT..✌️
You need to ignore what everyone else is doing and achieving.
Your life is about breaking your own limits and outgrowing yourself to live your best life.
You are not in competition with anyone else.
Plan to outdo your past, not other people.
This is what you don’t do:
Don’t let this world make you bitter.
Don’t let the actions of other people turn you cold on the inside.
Certain things happen that hurt us, people come that leave us, and most of all there are moments when you’re bound to fall.
Don’t let those things make you unkind.
It’s okay to cry.
It’s okay to be sad.
But it’s never okay to do other people wrong just because you were done wrong.
We’re human.
We break.
We make mistakes.
But don’t let pain and sadness run your life.
Wake up in the morning and do what you think is right.
There are moments in your life where you feel like giving up and you can’t take it anymore.
It’s okay.
Breathe.
Inhale.
Exhale.
I know you’re weak.
But the things that show your weak side are also the same ones that make you stronger in the long run.
It’s all about taking whatever life throws at you and learning from it.
Tap OUT..✌️
This is life, and it is what it is.
Shit is gonna happen.
It’s gonna get complicated.
We’re gonna relapse.
We’re gonna need time-outs.
We’re gonna be weak.
We’re gonna be strong.
We’re gonna lose our shit and yell for people to get the fuck out of our lives.
We’re gonna break down and beg some people to stay in our lives.
Some days we’re gonna feel everything all at once.
Other days, we’re gonna feel nothing at all.
We’re gonna be in some bad spaces, we’re gonna be in some amazing ones.
We’re gonna get on our knees crying and hurting and begging for help.
We’re gonna get on our knees and pray just to say thank you.
We’re gonna have moments when we know exactly what we want, and we’re sure.
We’re gonna have moments when we legit have no fucking clue what we want, and we’re confused.
This life shit isn’t a movie, and I think sometimes, we forget that.

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of ATTITUDE on life.
Attitude, to me is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do.
It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill.
It will make or break a company, a church, a school, a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.
We cannot change our past.
We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable.
The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.
And so it is with you, we are in charge of our ATTITUDE.

If we believe there is no magic in life, then we’ll never experience it.
If we believe the miracles are not real, then we’ll never accept it when we see it.
If we believe that we’re limited in what we can do, accomplish and become, then we’ll always live within the confines of our imagination.
However, the opposite is also true.
If we believe in magic, we’ll experience it around every corner.
If we believe in the miracles, then we’ll train ourselves to see and be thankful for the little miracles that unfold each day.
If we believe that we are limitless, then we’ll see anything we imagine is possible.
The beliefs that we hold onto influence our lives significantly determining how our story unfolds.
WHAT WE BELIEVE IS WHAT WE WILL EXPERIENCE.
Tap OUT..💪
Everyone has a story to tell, a lesson to teach, and wisdom to share.
Life is a beautiful masterpiece bound together by your experiences.
Open up and share your story; become an inspiration to others.
You can make a difference because you matter.

Live your life with good intention, go out there and make a difference by being the difference.

What interests me the most, is a persons mind.
Their stories, their thoughts.
The memories.
The secrets that lay dormant in their head, waiting to be told.
I find all of it so interesting.
Cause I have been through a lot.
And I am just fascinated by other’s struggles.
Everyone has their own struggle.
I love learning about someone’s life.
How they came to be the person they are today,
why they act or talk the way they do.
It’s just very interesting.
You will live this life with that identity only once.
Remain CONSISTENT on your path.
Be the most authentic version of yourself, no matter what the world tells you to be.

Don’t beat yourself up for not baking banana bread.

Someone won back the love of their life.
Someone made their parents proud.
Someone survived.

You don’t just wake up someday and fall in love with yourself.
It takes time.
It takes patience but more than that it takes self compassion, empathy and kindness from yourself towards your own heart.
You have to be brave enough to forgive yourself for all the mistakes you have made and all the chances you didn’t take.
Like all the other forms of love, you will learn to love yourself by practicing SELF-LOVE.

the smell of rain after a thunderstorm,
the shades of pavements when it’s autumn,
the harvest season and the unspoken competition to pick the freshest tomatoes,
the mediocre midnights and the color of the sunsets,
the smell of bakeries early in the morning,
the frosty breeze of the fast-approaching winter,
the warmth of oven when baking christmas cookies,
the thickness of paper when flipping through magazine pages,
the smell of new books and new clothes and new things.

Enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes, because you’ll never get another one quite like it.
And if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over.
Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart, where your hope lives.
You’ll find your way again.

Get up.
Get a routine.
Get outside when you can.
Get moving.
Get focused on the day in front of you.
(Not the month or year.)
Don’t live inside hypothetical catastrophes.
Focus on what you can control, even if it is your breathing.
Don’t beat yourself up for not baking banana bread.
Nobody is going to finally give you permission to love your life, your body, your existence on this Earth.
You do that for you.
You don’t need permission to enjoy the sunshine on your face, the feel of warm water on your skin, the laugh you make when something catches you off guard.
Stop hoarding your joy.
You deserve it all.
Act accordingly.
-JAMIE VARON.
It’s normal for us to overanalyze and overcomplicate just about everything.
We often lead complex lives where the solutions can seem out of reach.
They say the simplest answer is usually correct, so when I get overwhelmed, I come back to this profound notion of simplicity.
When in doubt, simplify the clutter of your mind.
Imagine your problem is a messy knot and visualize yourself untying it.
Understand that just as it is complicated to make things simple, it is simple to make things complicated as well.

There are many people who walk around with big egos feeling righteous and more entitled than others.
It doesn’t matter where you come from or who you think you are, we’re all human beings with beating hearts.
A lot of times people judge others and assume that they’re right, but you can’t just assume your point of view is right.
You have to be willing to see outside of yourself.
There are so many people in the world and if you’re only asking yourself for answers, then you’re living your life in a bubble.
Think twice before you feel like judging someone, put yourself in their shoes and remember they’re entitled to their own opinions and perspectives.
They see the world differently.
You don’t deserve a point of view if the only thing you see is you.

We humans do not understand compassion.
In each moment of our lives, we betray it.
We know of its worth, yet in knowing we then attach to it a value, we guard the giving of it, believing it must be earned.
Compassion is priceless in the truest sense of the world.
It must be given freely.
– Steven Erikson.
Being HUMBLE means recognizing that we are not on earth to see how IMPORTANT we can become,
but to see how much DIFFERENCE we can make in the lives of others.
-Gordon B. Hinckley.
Hate no one, no matter how much they’ve wronged you.
Live humbly, no matter how rich you become.
Think positively, no matter how hard life is.
Give much, even if you’ve been given little.
Forgive all, especially yourself.
And never stop praying & wishing the best for everyone.
There’s no bigger form of wealth compared to GOOD WISHES.

The body has limitations.
The mind has not.
We focus so much on what goes on from the neck down, that we forget it all starts from here in mind.

Most of our lives move at such an accelerated pace we don’t always have the time to stop and reflect on how far we’ve come.
We are usually too busy looking ahead.
But it’s so important to keep checking in with yourself.
We change all the time.
It’s easy to get caught up feeling dissatisfied with where you are when you don’t take the time to appreciate how far you’ve come.
You don’t have to be exactly where you want to be, but the fact that you are on your way is remarkable.
Good things and progress take time.
Make today all about celebrating how far you’ve come in your life since last year.
What is something you’ve changed in your life that you are proud of?
Remember how far you’ve come, not just how far you have to go.
You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be. (Not my words.)

If we want to see success in our lives, we must intentionally work towards what we’re purposed to do.
We cannot get distracted by anything outside of our purpose or compromise our creativity, vision, or convictions because we believe that we’ll obtain more success or get more recognition or praise through our change in direction.
It doesn’t work like that.
Because success is connected to purpose, not trends of popularity.
One of the definitions of success is “the accomplishment of one’s goals”.
We have to keep OUR GOALS in front of us, not someone else’s.
So, stay on track.
Believe in yourself and your purpose.
Trust that as you stay faithful to what you know you ought to be doing, you will experience astronomical success that will leave you with a sense of fulfillment and will impact the world around you. (Not my words.)

I’m a firm believer in leaving this world a better place for future generations.
Being an optimistic person has presented me with so many extraordinary opportunities to give back, to volunteer, and to touch so many lives along the way.
I’ve had the privilege of advocating for those dealing with bullying, eating disorders, and mental health issues.
Everyone has causes close to their hearts, so whatever you’re passionate about, do something to make a difference.
Do your part to make this world a better place.
I have been through enough ups & downs in my close to 30 life. I gave myself oppertunity to live/work/study in 4 cities/countries. I graduated engineering & MBA way back. The friends who entered my life those days are still intact, that’s my biggest flex. My address will change again next year. I will not say i enjoy travelling, everyone does. I will say, i relocate every 2-3 years. The more people i came in touch with the more i understood, we live in a world of WEAK MEN & GIRLS BUSY IN TIKTOK. Proper inconsistency at play. Still there’s hope to experience a world focused on growth, happiness & fulfillment.

Life is majorly about two things;

2. The love that you get & give.

Nobody is perfect.
Equally important is knowing how to forgive yourself.
Do not obsess over your past mistakes.
The more you obsess and hold on to it, the more energy and power you give it.
So let it go, learn from it, and move on.
Forgive yourself for a mistake you made or something you’ve done that you now regret.
Allow yourself to let it go.
Leave all your inconsistent behaviour behind.
Learn to be in sync with life.
It can be your career, hobbies, relationship or your health, learn to be CONSISTENT if you want success in any field of your life.
Live with no regrets.
Life is fun, let it be.

Nobody knows how long we are on earth for; you don’t want to waste your time here stressing about the next day.
You should just appreciate the moment and try to cherish it as often as you can.
Realise that time is limited and challenge yourself to live each day to the fullest.
What is a way you can live your life to the fullest today?
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
But TODAY is a gift, make the best of it & make the most of it.

We have to realize that our lives could be gone in a moment.
There are no guarantees that we will be here at this time next year.
Learn to live each day to the fullest.
Don’t complain.
Don’t focus on what’s right or wrong.
Be grateful for the opportunity to experience each day.
It’s been 5 years & i am always in a different city/country at this time of the year. I met some amazing people & lost touch with few. Most of them helped me shape & build what i am today. I can’t change everything & i accept what’s coming wholeheartedly. At the end i must agree, life is beautiful & i am grateful.

When you wake up each morning, take a moment to think about the kind of life you want to have.
Consistently consciously choose to have a happy life: one that is filled with love, laughter, good health and success.
Then begin your day focused on the things you can do to make this your reality.
A happy life is a CHOICE, choose it wisely.
(This video got nothing to do with the post above. Watch it & please understand the importance of general knowledge & basic day to day information. Just checking your Google feeds may help you escape embarassing situations. I mean, look at these fools.)
Keep looking.
Not for a person, but for your passion, your love, your courage, your goals, your dreams, your happiness, yourself.
Keep looking.
Explore your life before you explore another.
Know your worth, know yourself.
Only then, you will know what you need over what you want.
You need yourself to become your own.
Key to your future happy life is in your hands.

It is important to know who you are, what you stand for and how you want to see yourself.
You have your whole life for you, and you determine what you do with it and how you will experience your journey.
There is no one who can tell you who you are, because you decide for yourself.
You make your own choices, you choose your own direction and you determine your own steps.
Think about who you are, think about how you position yourself against others.
Think of your qualities and your intentions.
See yourself as the person you want to be, without thinking about your status, your score, your ability or the people around you.
Nothing or nobody should affect who you are as a person, who you are in terms of thinking, who you are in your actions.
The life you have for you is your chance to follow your dreams, to discover, to develop and to enjoy yourself.
Imagine a life in which you are completely yourself, in which you fulfill your dreams.

You can’t skip chapters, that’s not how life works.
You have to read every line, meet every character.
You won’t enjoy all of it.
Hell, some chapters will make you cry for weeks.
You will read things you don’t want to read, you will have moments when you don’t want the pages to end.
But you have to keep going.
Stories keep the world revolving.

Now this paragraph is for my close friends.
The question is; “Was i angry on Frank?”
Answer is: No, i laughed at his tiny mind in November-2019.
I was applying for PhD research scholar positions in Berlin. New city for me, Frank took me & few friends to an EXOTIC CAR MEET-UP, that too in a Dacia Duster. Not judging the car, any Dacia or VW is a good daily driver. But, I was laughing at the idea of going to an EXOTIC CAR MEET-UP in a DACIA DUSTER.😂

In the end only three things matter;
how much you loved,
how gently you lived,
and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.
– Buddha.
Eleven meaningful truths/lessons on life:
1. Average human life is relatively short.
2. You will only ever live the life you create for yourself.
3. Being busy doesn’t mean being productive.
4. Some kind of failure always occurs before success. And both success & failure can be equally amazing.
5. Actions without intentions are like walking without using legs, doesn’t make sense.
6. You don’t have to wait for an apology to forgive other people. There’s a tendency of CHEAP, it keeps getting CHEAPER with time.
7. Some people are simply the wrong match for you. Keep checking who’s coming for good time & who’s coming with good energy!!
8. It’s not other people’s job to LOVE you; it’s yours.
9. What you own is not who YOU are, it’s about how you purpose what you have.
10. Everything changes for the better.
11. Forever takes forever to build & behold. (Not my words).
Never regret being a good person to the wrong people.
Your behavior says everything about you,
and their behavior says enough about them.

Nobody’s going to do your life for you.
You have to do it yourself,
whether you’re rich or poor,
out of money or raking it in,
the beneficiary of ridiculous fortune or terrible injustice.
And you have to do it no matter what is true.
No matter what is hard.
No matter what unjust, sad, sucky things have befallen you.
Self pity is a dead-end road.
You make the choice to drive down it.
It’s up to you to decide to stay parked there or to turn around and drive out.

Be happy on purpose.
Look for the rainbow when it’s raining.
Find the hope even when it’s bleak.
Choose forgiveness even when bitterness is easier.
Choose love even when it feels impossible.
Make it a habit to choose joy as much as you possibly can because life isn’t meant to be lived in disappointment or frustration.
It’s not meant to be lived in hatred.
It’s meant to be lived laughing so hard your stomach hurts.
It’s meant to be filled with soft moments of love.
It’s meant to be filled with tight hugs that last for minutes.
Life is meant to be lived happy.

IF SOMEONE asks,
“Has the best moment of your life arrived yet?”
We may say that it will come very soon.
But if we continue to live in the same way, it may never arrive.
We have to transform this moment into the most wonderful moment,
and we can do that by stoping,
stopping running to the future,
stopping worrying about the past,
stopping accumulating so much.
You are a free person; you are alive.
Open your eyes and enjoy the sunshine, the beautiful sky, ocean, nature, animals and the wonderful children around you.
Breathing in and out consciously helps you become your best, calm, fresh, solid, clear, and free, able to enjoy the present moment as the best moment of your life.
Every Moment is different.
No Moment stays forever.
That is not scary or sad.
That’s the beauty of it all. (Not my words).

Drink wine but don’t forget your green juice.
Eat chocolate when your heart wants it and kale salad when your body needs it.

You have to chase the things that ignite you.
You have to do the things that bring you joy.
You have to surround yourself with the people who bring you back home to yourself, with the people who respect you and embrace you in ways that make you feel like you are worthy and accepted and celebrated and loved.
You have do the work to heal yourself,
even when it hurts especially when it hurts,
so that you do not continue to approach your life within the boundary of what is heavy within you.
You have to put yourself out there,
and you cannot worry about what other people think,
you cannot rob yourself of experience or happiness or inspiration because you are scared of how you will be perceived.
You have to be unapologetic in the way that you exist here.
You have to believe that your ideas, and your hope, and your being, deserve to take up space.
You have to believe that you have purpose.
Because our existence is finite.
And as hard as that is to understand,
as hard as that can be to connect with,
from time to time remind yourself that in the most human way we are all living on borrowed time.
We live as if we are promised the experiences and the potential we are chasing,
we live as if we have control over what happens to us.
But we don’t, and that is liberating,

My bestfriend DEMI asked me yesterday “whether i will stop hanging out with her after i get a girlfriend/partner/wife or someone significant?”. I am answering this with few lines, so that she can bookmark & read it as many times she wants. I hide nothing from no one.
Here’s my answer:
My blood’s origin goes back to an eastern state of India called ODISHA. Since childhood i was taught few things which are embedded in my mind now:
1. Study, learn, get qualified & make lots of money with that knowledge. Because society is either judgemental or materialistic which respects power of MONEY & KNOWLEDGE.
2. Live for love, respect, family, and LOVE+RESPECT towards family. That’s why we have huge families.
3. MONEY you made mustn’t be used to flex in front of others. Use it to keep your family happy.
4. Invest in gold & land, this is the big kicker. That’s the reason most Indian men crave to buy more than one property & Indian women are obsessed with 24 carat pure gold jewelleries.😂 That’s all.
So one day when i enter a stable relationship, the sole purpose is to start my own family someday soon or sooner. I know whom & what to prioritise. But remember one thing dumb bitch, i feel like i know you since my past life. You are not just my bestfriend, i consider you family. You will always have 24/7 access to my house, my lap, a piggyback ride to beach & access to me no matter it’s pouring/sunny/snowing. Don’t get emotional DEMI, we are not discussing anything about this post during facetime.

Each of us leads unique lives with experiences that nobody else will ever completely understand.
Your story holds so many valuable lessons that can help inspire, teach, and motivate someone else.
Should you choose to share it!?!
In life, I have heard so many different stories.
Just by listening, I learned so many different things.
I’m so thankful I found the courage to share my story as well and talk about what I’ve been through.
Not only has it helped me, but it has helped give perspective and strength to so many other people, my people to be precise.
I encourage you to do the same.
Share your story with someone who is worth your time.

Life changes.
You lose love.
You lose friends.
You lose pieces of yourself that you never imagined would be gone.
And then, without you even realizing it, these pieces come back.
Love blooms inside you with lots of respect.
Better friends come along.
And a stronger, wiser you is staring back in the mirror.
No matter how bad it gets, better days are always waiting, hoping you’ll make it there to accept the smiles and joy that they’re offering.
Someone once told me to always live for the little things in life.
Live for 5am sunrises and 5pm sunsets where you’ll see colours in the sky that don’t usually belong.
Live for road trips and bike rides with music in your ears and the wind in your hair.
Live for days when you’re surrounded by your favourite people who make you realise that the world is not a cold, harsh place.
Live for the little things because they will make you realise that this is what life is about, this is what it means to be alive.

There are two types of men in this world.
1: Work 9 to 5. Get married in their late 30s. Make 2-3 kids. Return home tired after work. Expect wife to cook, clean, wash clothes & raise kids. Watch TV at night. Get 5 blowjobs in a month. Wait for weekend to go grocery shopping. Sleep like a 80 year old at 11pm. They get mad at their family or wife to relieve the stress of work. These people pretend being happy their whole life till they retire or till they end up being broke.
2: Who has a fire in them. Who have an eventful life. Who have more stories to tell their next generation. Who build legacies. Who dedicate quality time to family & passion. Work is a priority, because it’s their choice. Who dare to love because they love their life first & there’s no negotiation in writing a beautiful love story which can build memories. Who don’t wait for weekend & who value knowledge. Basically those who LIVE.
I can’t judge 1 or 2. Do what works for you. But the first lesson of life is to LOVE YOURSELF. Nobody is born perfect.
When you love yourself, you glow from the inside.
You attract people who love, respect, and appreciate your energy.
Everything starts with and how you feel about yourself.
Start feeling worthy, valuable and deserving of receiving the best that life has to offer.
PART OF BEING A MAN IS LEARNING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR SUCCESSES AND FOR YOUR FAILURES.

Two things always go hand in hand: SUCCESS & RESPECT. Be good at what you do. Everyone loves competent people, especially those who present their best work all the time. You may just be starting out in your profession, but that doesn’t mean you’re not deserving of success & respect.
It’s about starting small and building from there. It’s through improving and gaining experience that you establish yourself and earn the respect of others for your efforts. It’s not an overnight process, but eventually it will gain right people’s attention which may bring tons of prosperity your way.
