The incidents and the experiences impact our lives and build a perception & identity of our own.  Imperfection and impermanence is inherent to being human. Learn from them and take life less seriously. Fear makes us doubt our capabilities thus erode our self confidence and sense of self worth. Embrace your imperfections; no one is judging whether or not you are perfect. Life changes more than it stays the same and nothing lasts for long. Aspire and strive to be best but do not conduct yourself in line with someone else’s expectations. Human mind is deeply influenced by thoughts.  Control self talk that is self critical, remain optimistic and change your mind set towards a new perspective of life to win over the frustration & unhappiness.

 

Life is beautiful and simple. People slip away from our lives like sand. Conditioned by the surroundings a person acquires a behavior one finds awkward. We form an opinion and start nagging too much preaching life’s lessons repeatedly. An inner sense of rebellion at being compelled to change the behavior, you are passionate about, quietly builds up suppressed feelings leading to pent up anger and aggression to express defiance & annoyance when feel humiliated. Silence & suppression of thoughts lead to anxiety, sadness & depression. Control repetitive & compulsive reaction, learn to ignore minor irritants and listen quietly to what other person tells, who may be lonely inside and struggling all alone. Expression of one’s conviction without being disrespectful & abusive avoids interpersonal conflicts. Acceptance of one’s emotional state, limitations & remaining non-judgmental avoids withdrawal. Don’t counter the rude behavior in the same spirit instead leave and take time out. Realization afterwards works better.  

Finding self in a situation that gives birth to anxiety and worry sometimes an individual instinctively overreacts. This aspect of personality is damaging for relationship and invites unwarranted outcome which proves to be painful & traumatic. Turning down an unreasonable excessive demand/expectation with a polite clear refusal smilingly rather than bluntly, interpreted as emotional reaction, helps calm one’s agitated mind to deal with the racing thoughts that elicit immediate distraction. Any activity/hobby like cycling, game, reading, painting, walk etc which is carried out with concentration and focus for about a minimum of 60 minutes provides distraction from the emotional and physical stress and calms down mind & body.

 

Living and interacting with positive people enriches one’s life with understanding, love and growth infusing happiness and joy. The uncertainties, unpleasant emotional experiences, other’s prejudices, fear of rejections & stigmas affects an individual’s self esteem leading to isolation. The alienation causes stress and adversely affects mental health. The interpersonal interactions sharing concerns with loving & kind people are encouraging and empowering for a personal transformation. Infuse your life with greater joy by confiding in people who listen to you in a non biased manner with care & respect maintaining your privacy.

 

Holding on to the hurt caused by an action/activity, called resentment, erodes peace of mind and is an impediment in personal growth & Joy. Assigning blame relentlessly to someone or something responsible for the pain inflicted does not let one find an outlet to the anger which causes great turmoil in life. It is difficult to successfully divest self of resentful feelings but choosing to let it go voluntarily helps in easing the feeling of pain & suffering. Make an effort to shift your attention from those you resent back toward self to move on with lives.

 

The provocations and inner conflicts lead to anger. One imbibes hatred for others while witnessing violent behavior. One needs to understand that behavioral differences develop solely due to one’s life experiences and respecting others opinion helps one refrain from getting into arguments that destroy inner peace. Learn to rise above the differences, learn from mistakes in the past & focus on self growth, enhance tolerance levels and be kind to each other.

Feeling scared in the challenging & complicated times while questioning where current events are headed, how bad is it going to get & how it will affect you. You are caught up in nervousness thinking something bad will happen, which you perpetuate through your traumatic imagination. There is nothing wrong with being afraid as long as we do not let it stop us from doing the things that excite. Frame your thoughts a little differently to shift your mental state from one of resistance to one of openness effecting energy shift from fear, which paralyzes, to excitement. It shall empower you to direct all the energy towards moving forward, growing & learning. Refuse to struggle against it by putting on a false bravado & insisting you're not nervous at all. Instead move forward past the fear without paying any attention, as though it doesn't exist, to the negative state at all. Trust and assure self in your ability to handle challenges. Excitement, curiosity, passion rather than anxiety shall help and inspire you to be more comfortable with fear.

A person at war with own thoughts, mind says something but heart wants something different, is not satisfied, happy & at peace thus drifts away, feels disrespected, misused & hurt. The importance of self-esteem, life goal, family, values, peace of mind and unique identity for an individual defines his/her indulgence in self-love & self-care.

Relationships thrive on honesty, communication, mutual caring, and time spent together. Loosing relationship leaves behind an emptiness that is overwhelming and the feelings of pain, loss & separation are difficult to bear. Maintaining & holding on to relationship that doesn't feel right, languishing in feelings of anger or resentment, investing time & energy attempting to fix the problem believing it will eventually change is quite stressful and draining. Consider whether the other person truly considers your feelings or if they are willing to change their behavior. While every relationship has its ups and downs, when there are more downs than ups or the two of you are bringing out the worst in each other, it may be time to ask yourself what you really want from the relationship. Be honest with yourself & your answers, even if the truth is painful. One may be afraid of hurting the other person or feel insecure but when relationship, no matter how passionate, adversely affects well-being and health, sever the connection. Ending such toxic relationship gives a chance to rediscover own interests, explore new passions, meet different people and nurture new relationship in the future.
