Be selfish..Do what you love anyway!


Sharing is important, but not at the expense of your requirements. Compromising is a great gesture, but not at the expense of your dreams. Helping people is critical, but not when they don't value it. 

"A little boy walked on the road eating his hard earned bread. A girl, he admired, asked for some. The boy finally realizes that she ate it all, and walked away thankless. "

While we all teach our loved ones on the importance of sharing, compromising for siblings and friends, and helping; Many of us fail to explain the end limit for this kind gesture. You may find my posts radical, but the fact remains, that after a certain age, we need to teach our children to "Be Selfish".

By nature, the female is more considerate while the male more practical. A lady compromises her ambitions, dreams, likes and dislikes, many a times for her parents, siblings, husband and kids. But, the world is changing. And the need of the hour is to 'Think about yourself first, then your immediate family and then the rest of the world." 


And why am I saying this? Simple - Never have a reason to blame others for things you couldn't achieve. "Only if my father allowed me to go abroad! Only if he let me choose my career path, Only if my mom allowed me to marry the one I loved! Only if my husband supported me! Only if I was free of any responsibility of my wife and kids! Only if my boss gave me that awesome project! Only if I had money to work on that idea and the list is endless..... "
Things could have changed if only - you would have got selfish , strong, determined to do what your heart said and not what the world!

The best teacher is Life. Experience It!

Whether it is riding on a cycle for the first time, or starting a business, your first and best teacher will be life — fall, stand up and do it again!
“I was leaving for office early morning, and noticed a 2 year old with her mother riding a cycle. Her mother supported her initially, but after a few minutes, she let the baby fall and stand up by herself...”
Yes! We experienced it when we were kids, and we experience it today. Our friends, family, teachers, investors, and everyone we know, support us initially, or should I say guide us. But, we still fall! A startup is no easy game!

When a little one struggles to walk, or when a new career path is unlocked,
When you are blessed with a new born, or when a new idea sees the dawn,
Failure, Happiness and Pleasure, every step unfolds,
Mistakes are natural, but the talent and confidence in you, seldom withhold.
Break free and Dance in the rain! Fall, Stand-up and Do it again!

Take One - Don't run behind time!

I am starting this blog with an idea to inculcate the feeling of positivity among my peers, kids and myself :) . 
There may be a lot of people feeling bored, depressed, and lonely at some point in life, but remember this phase shall end. We all need to speak to our near and dear ones. I am not feeling very good today, so I am taking up writing, my childhood passion.
"The idea is to speak to everyone in the world, when you don't find one good ear! You will feel a lot lighter!"

Now, Back to cheering up!

We all experience multiple things everyday in our life, Some good and some bad. But, what we always end up talking about is the bad experience. Its time we start jotting down one new learning everyday. Its time we start following our passion, do things that make us happy, write, speak, laugh and enjoy life! 
My one take from life today is that you will never have time ! So, lets just start making the most of it now !
