In a Day, A Year Older :)

Hello Everyone!

On the eve of my Birthday, as I look back on the last decade of my life, I was over-whelmed by the memories and experiences I had accumulated. The mindset and the growth I have achieved is HUGE.
10 years back, when I was a wrapped in a cocoon , without much idea of  responsibilities and realities of the REAL Life, I was still nagging about small things. But then radical changes took place when I left my parents house to set my career in a new city all alone. From a pampered single child to a working mother of two, life has changed a lot and sure for better. There were highs-lows, health-sickness, supportive people-critical people, good and as well as bad memories; in-short I had an eventful phase of life. Now, when I sit back and think about it, I can see the bigger picture that everything happens for a reason, & I believe for something good.

Just wanted to share some of the Life Lessons Learnt from my twenties-

1. Earn your own bread and support your family. Time to get financially independent and start your savings early and spend wisely.

2. Learn to cook your own meal and drive your vehicle. Be self-sufficient in every aspect.

3. Be a Child by heart but don't be childish. Take responsibility for your actions but also be happy, hopeful and carefree in life.

4. Everyday comes with a new opportunity, grab it. Grow everyday, learn something new. Growth is contentment.

5. Take your important decisions independently and be responsible for them. Of course, you  can consult with your near ones but the final call must be yours. And never ever regret for what you decided.

6. Life won't be easy or fair but you will surely find someway to deal with it positively. Focus on good things and hold in there.

7. Trust yourself and others, even if you get screwed, you will learn something. But if you forget to trust, then you will forget to live.

8.  Learn to give and not expect anything in return. Now, this is really difficult thing as not to expect. But still take charge of your own life,dreams and happiness and help out yourself. SELF Help is the Best.

9. Set boundaries for your physical and emotional well-being. Learn to say NO without explanation.

10 . Give 100 percent in your relationship and expect less. Find happiness in the smallest gestures and little joys of life.

11. Take a trip alone or with your friends and have lots of fun. Travelling  not only refreshes your mind but it makes you grow. You learn to adapt to new things, places and culture and thus become more humble and amicable.

12.  People may come or go, people may stay or may not. But everyone helps us to grow, be thankful anyways. If things didn't work out the way you expected, believe there are much better things waiting for you. Don't look for pretty faces that surround you, instead look for similar passions, noble thoughts, good vibes and honest intentions.

13. Never quit. Take a pause or break but never ever quit.

14. Don't react to adverse situations but respond to them.

15. Your happiness is your responsibility, don't expect it from others. Be happy.



Until next time, stay happy and spread happiness.
