What advice would you give to yourself 5 years ago? What are we really doing in our life ? What is the meaning of life? Why we do what we do? Do we really knows all the answers. Probably not - The most compelling advice I got is.. Be urself  Be peaceful , Be in the moment, Don't take pressure,  Everything will be fine, Focus on one desire one time, Live a life as I expected to ,not what society expect me to do. And finally develop reading book habit. I learned more from reading book than going to collage, Naval said :- if you develop reading skill ,you can develop any skills in life. If you develop reading habit ,you will ponder into the knowledge sea and find out all the answers of your life questions. Just pick lot of books and start reading. Read till you fall in love for reading Society look for consensus,  And an individual look for truth. Don't take a word for anyone... Look for truth find your SOLUTIONS in reading.

Set the things right on the table. We are having enormous issues to be solved both professional and personal. Sometime things gets out of control and we kept stuff with ourself without sharing with others ,or being embarrass to ask help from others. We are either running away from our own problems or living delusion life. And things are getting repeat over and over same everytime. Because, we have not been taught these things from young age. There are many childrens ,students ,teengers and adults are not disclosing things with their parents or elders (responsible person in the family ) Where the actual scenario should communicate something like this :-

Compound interest. Have you ever wonder why we got into this present situation in the first place. Doesn't matter you maybe scuccesful or you will be. The only thing matter is "are we headed towards the direction which leads to our ultimate destination or not" May be you aspire to become Doctor ,engineer ,start a business or write a book. If we aspire to become successful person then we definitely need to understand the process. The journey what makes a person successful. We often hear this sentence " nobody get Success over 1 night " What does even mean ? If refers to small wins within the context of our lives , we need to win small battles before making a victory in a war. "Every action we take matters" "Every decision matters" "Every tiny moves matters" "Even our small thoughts matters " It will get into compound interest and add up to grow and grow over the long period of time. If we walk around the street judging peop...

Strive for understanding not memorization. Here is a thing we have been taught from school teachers to memorize about the solution. We all had that moment when we could able to understand the Maths class. And suddenly we are compliance to memorize the formulas and we lose both our focus and interest. I shouldn't say this but our education system gives ranks based on our memorization capacity. So, more the memorization higher the marks. Consider, the exams we wrote and became toppers. What if the same question ask now ? We all are long forgotten about all the lesson or chapters. What we really need is to strive for understanding. If we understand the concept then we can able to write in 10 different ways. As a student I find this understandings concept very compelling and effective. For instance:- there was a question on partnership and then its factors /nature/elements etc. So one must try to understand what is partnership means without jumping directly into memorizing about its na...

Your priority  What is the most single specific priority you are accountable throughout your day? Every Successful person has atleast 1 important task to complete, It could be reading ,exercising, writing , spend time with family or meditating. Note :- a priority should be accomplish for it's own sake without being pressure from anyone. Some of my  accountable daily tasks are blogging ,reading book and doing mediation for 30 mins everyday. Accountability is what keep us to move forward. Everybody have desire to achieve something in our life. Here are some steps to be follow:- 1)find out your desire. 2)find out the specific task that can help you to achieve your goal (read ,write ,or exercise) 3)make most single priority first thing in the morning.          4)atleast follow for 60 days regularly. If you are not taking charge for your life now ,it will be incharge throughout our life. Be accountable, and be achiever.  

  Friendship.... Everything changes rapidly beginning with technology, economic and even our life style. There was a time when phones were not available but we used to feel closer with our  relatives and friends. And now is a time where everybody does have a all resources and leverage and yet lack of deep relations. Based on the observation possessions(car,bike,or money ) attracts friendship. You should atleast have 1 friend to whom you could call anytime and share your vulnerability. I have a friend circle from my school era. Having established deep bonding and genuine understanding among us. We don't need to have fancy bikes or fancy lunch to meet. We are more reliable, more transparent and have mutual admiration and respect. Infact, We don't hangout much ,somehow we feel closer even talking on phones. We don't require any possessions to attract our friends. I firmly belive authenticity is what drives other towards us. So it's more important to be natural and authenti...

This wasn't suppose to be my Blog For a while ago ,I made a decision to move out and shift at the hostel faculty somewhere in the city. It seems rational decision to me , I kind a feel like I can Progress in my life radically by staying away from home. However, I'm still intend to move and then something remarkable happened. Just a mile away from my home ,I found a free libraray and Garden which provide incredible atmosphere to grow and be focus on my reading. All I want to do is focus reading and creative thinking. And ,today I happened to visit libraray and spent 2 hrs on meticulous reading. It was absolute worth going to library. Now ,I'm in the situation where I have 2 choices . A)Shift to hostel B)Stay at home and spend much time at library. And I firmly believe over time going to library will pays off. Do yourself a favour find library near by your location and enroll it. And let me know the precise option for me.

Resources are Abundant. We have a scarcity of desire to learn. The Technology is providing abundant resources free and yet we are not utilizing in terms of leverage. We are limiting ourself by using Social media and watching youtube videos. Almost , everything we can find on internet today. But we don't have desire to learn.

What I'm upto these days !   Although I'm having my final examination and I have been busy in preparation. These days I find very Difficult to get things done, Waking up early and going for walk due to rainy season. I'm not focused on reading books lack of motivation. I became very lazy person these days. But I found very Fascinating podcast . I'm not motivated enough to read ,write or do other productive things but I'm definitely investing my time on listening to podcast and watching Harvard University "Justice Class" which is highly effective as a result. I have been listening to Naval Ravikant. He is a versatile dynamic personality (big shot investor ) and he has enormous knowledge. One of his podcast has been game changing for me.   https://youtu.be/1-TZqOsVCNM This above podcast is worth reading 5 books alone. Naval said :- Instead of completing books after books ,he would rather read same book over and over until he fully grasped or observed it. One ...

Put down everything. Evey year seems busy ,every month seems busy, everyday hustling and every hour struggling. We are so wrapped up in busy bandwagon and the truth of the matter is "we are not that busy at all". We like to think we are busy or atleast we project ourself for others sake. And yes ,we are giving time to our family, job and friends. The important question is how much you are giving time to yourself. [Put down your phone ] [Put down you laptop] [Put down your book] [ put down your pen] [Put down everything] Just sit alone with eyes close and let your mind to be at rest(Meditation ). Our brain has a capacity of finite things to manage. And every minute our mind is having Infinite thoughts. This is practice done by world richest people. In order to have new idea ,our brain needs to be empty and fresh. And when we sit 30 mins per day for 60 days ,the brain inbox gets empty and it can allow new ideas and plans. I have been practicing it frequently and it really helpi...

Comparison makes you....... In the fast growing world ,we seems to compare and compete with each other rather than being ourself. Wheather in a business or personal ,we are more likely to buy things and adopt mutual behavior as our peers does. On a specifically, we compare our marriage functions with others. I have seen people borrow money just to organize better functions ,just to outdo their neighbors. Why do we seek comparison? Comparison either makes us worthless or egotistic. Comparison bring more stress ,increase anxiety and lead us to make irrational decisions. Nothing can be achieve for comparing yourself with others ,either it makes you egotistical or make you depressed. The major reason ,I quit Social media(Fb or Instagram) And now, I don't compare myself with anyone. I'm not bother about what other person buying or doing something. I'm more focused than before I take decisions for myself ,I make invest on books ,audible or skillshare to make a progress in my life...

 Intimadating Society.... We make most of our decisions based on society point of view. For instances:-  "if I quit my job ,what would people say therefore Stucked in same job for many years" "If I get divorced, what would people say or worse what will my friends and family think about me" Many things such as. If I go there  If I do this  Etc. Etc. Nobody really cares wheather you take step or not , We are the captain of our own ship. If you want to quit your job, just quit it. If you want to take some steps and if you are preoccupied about society view ,which is holding you back then you yourself stopping for your own bright future. We all have a right to freedom, If you are Suffering from something for a long time and holding yourself back and forth for society . It's time to take precisely step ,move forward and progress in your life regardless of considering about what people or Society think. Now, is the time to grow. You are the Captain of your own Ship......

Why is it sometime we forget others have life too. As David goggins says :-If you live a life with comfort,you are unlikely to get inspired to do something real in life. We live in a wonderful Country where we have home ,we have family, we have friends, we have incredible Society. More importantly we have "Clean water" Although we don't seems to realize that we have got more than enough in our life. And yet we whine all the time. Whenever I feel exhausted and disheartened about my life ,I think about people live in Africa. People in African Countries have real problems ,have real issues and lots of lots of difficulties though they hardly could able to satisfy basic needs. People in African countries struggle to achieve things:- 1.proper food 2.clean water 3.children education 4.proper shelter as well. Now, consider our problems and try to compare with them.

Why is it so Difficult to Share our feelings ? We have been taught not to disclose our feelings to anyone since childhood. People who share feelings and insecurities with others are known as weak. Why can't our Society allow us to to be vulnerable. Why is it so Difficult to share personal feeling to people or worse even with our Families and friends. Why vulnerable is consider as weakness. When someone opens up ,we suppress their feelings immediately and force them to fit in a culture. When was the last time we heard someone who says:- "I need help" "I feel insecure, I'm not comfortable with this environment " "I'm in trouble ,I'm having difficulty " "I want to share my tragic incident " "I want to try but I need help"   I'm a vulnerable person at least I try be . When you share your problems/insecurities/difficulties to genuine people. "You open yourself to a possibility to solve your problems" Vulnerabili...

  Instant Gratification? We are living in a instant Gratification world. Where you can able to get satisfy your needs in instantly. Technology has profoundly influenced the human being life. (either at the moment or within short period of time) Examples :- a)want to buy, order something online and next day you will get delivered. b)want to watch movie just stream netflix. c)Even with Marriage proposal . Everything became so fast and convenient, we require no patience to get something done. Now the problem occurs. when we are implying this instant Gratification into our Profession, marriage and other stuff. Getting job and getting married is great when we treat is as a journey rather Instant Gratification. The problem with our job is not the company ,not the boss rather we are seeking out for instant Gratification. Give time ,enjoy the process. And look to create value.

What makes Lecture so engaging? I have been watching harvard university "Justice" Classes on youtube. Which by the way is free. https://youtu.be/kBdfcR-8hEY The class was conducted by micheal Sandal, and had more than 300 students in a Justice class. What makes his class so engaging? He began his class with hypothetical stories and asked students perspectives on the story. Every student is eager to share his perspective and putting deep focus ,understanding the concrete reason while delivering a reply to professor. Meanwhile the professor Micheal remembers every students name and allowing himself to provide appreciation to every Students in the class. So, the class seems more interesting when teacher make student to participate in a topic and ask for perspectives, vulnerability and beliefs. How about Schools ,Collage and Universities conduct every classes in this manner.
