Things I would Like To Keep Reminding Myself
There are times in our lives, where we seek introspection from ourselves and folks around us — during this moment I always look for +ve thought process. Many a times I failed, but even if I succeed once — I know that day is worth living for. We all collectively fail at different phases of our lives, and most of us truly desire a companion with whom you can just be around. I had been very lucky and fortunate to have my folks around. But even then, sometimes I truly do not know what to say or listen — during that moment — I switch to reading.
In the age of striving to be “30 under 30,” we often make sacrifices that might hinder our ability to sustain ourselves in the long run. Sprinting can be exhilarating in the short term, but for those who seek enduring stability, a steady jog may be more beneficial. Amidst the frenzy of chasing our ambitions, it’s easy to neglect self-care, falling into the routine of single-minded pursuit. Life moves at a breakneck pace — take a moment to decelerate, lest it slips away before you. Enrich your life with diverse experiences, and you’ll find what you are seeking for.
Below are just random things which I would like to remind myself when I feel low or when I feel I do not want to listen to anyone. We do have our own quirks, but I hope these few random lines may help you to get through next few hours.
/ Learn to be loyal to your heart, and mind. They need you more than ever now.
/ Little Reminder — You can start your business, ideas, or anything at any point of the day on any given day. Do not let the idea of getting old ruin your head. Take a deep breathe and start over
/ This is one of my favourite of all times — You haven’t met all of the people who are going to love you. So stay calm, kiddo!
/ One bad chapter doesn’t mean your story is over. Or even if you say multiple bad chapter — turn the page, and look at life which you are dreaming of.
/ We all are collectively work in progress.
/ If your gut says no — it’s a no. You can wait for the justification later — but learn to listen to your body. It knows what are you seeking for.
/ Some stranger somewhere still remember you because you were kind to them when no one else was :) .
/ You are the reason for someone smile. Keep yourself intact and in place for them and yourself.
/ I’m in the process of embracing the aspects of myself that remain hidden, receiving little to no recognition from others
/ At 6 PM in the park, a child dared to dream that someday she would earn enough to buy her own flower. Wherever you are now, that child is proud of you. You’ve truly accomplished something remarkable, kiddo.
/ You don’t see it, but you are brave, magnificient, and beautiful.
/ Path is difficult because you dreams are bigger. Do not be scared of it. You are here in this path because you are meant to do bigger things. Put faith in yourself like you do for everyone around you. Be that person for yourself as well.
/ Your hardwork, and right intent will take you to place. Stay around to your effort, and your dreams. Keep them close.
/ Nothing brings peace to my heart or most of the heart is the sweet drizzle with the comfort food, chai or a book. It’s easier to feel at peace. Do not make it complicate in your heart my friend.
/ Taylor Swift Anecdote — “You know when somebody criticizes you, or says something behind your back. Those words that they said about you — is you feel like those words are written all over your face or all over you —and then those words start to become echoes in your own mind. An then, real risk those words become a part of yourself how see yourself . The moment you realise that you aren’t opinion of somebody who doesn’t know you or care about you — that moment when you realise that is like you are clean.”
/ Be a priority, and not an option
/ Ask your friends to postpone their task, and ask them to sit with you for sometime.
/ You do not always have to count every hour of the day to be productive. Hyper Productive is toxic.
/ Learned this one hard way — no one is really worth stressing for more than 5 mins. Life will keep moving ahead, enjoy it.
/ No matter what your people think about you, no matter even if they choose to be away from you — babe — understand the only way to move forward is to focus on self.
/ Your biggest flex in life is that you are you — no one — I swear no one even come close to it. Be authentic to yourself first, then people around you.
/ What are you scared of — go and jump! Believe you can, and you will do it without any doubt.
/ Do not let ever fame over rule your heart, and do not let your failure hurt you so much.
/ You do not have to take all of these things with you what I have just written — your heart is saying something to you — follow it regardless of anything.
/ This is your life , you get to write the story, and you also have the authority to change the course of life the way you want it.
/You will always be a villain in someone’s story!! Stop bothering!! Just focus and build and build!! (Stolen from Linkedin)
In the midst of the LinkedIn feed, we often stumble upon heartfelt reflections and lessons shared by individuals. Even I ignore those because it feels super heavy on me as well. But one resounding message prevails: believe in yourself and Just do it. In this journey, it’s common to find ourselves swayed by external voices, this could even choosing a birthday attir!!. We are rewired in such a way that we seek for constant validation. Whenever we get free from our tasks — our instinct is to reach for our phone — often unsure of how to truly unwind. Does this ring a bell? I think it does.
I do not know when your time will come to unlearn this and learn new ways to pursue your dreams. But what I do know is important: if you don’t listen to your heart, you might not be able to become the person you have the potential to be.
