One meets people in life but those who inspire, guide & encourage without any expectations play a significant role and shape one’s life. Therefore surround yourself with people who add value, bring out the best in you and celebrate your success.  It is normal to disagree over some issue but important to handle disagreements in a way you do not alienate the trust worthy. Healthy criticism and honest appreciation must be welcome but be aware of the extremities of either or both of these factors.    

 

Life is not what happens to us but how we respond to things. There is an idiom “what cannot be cured must be endured”. It is not the external factors but the thoughts you create because of them that makes you unhappy. Believe in and back yourself, there is nothing more expensive than a missed opportunity.

 

Understanding & valuing partner, loyalty, truthfulness and finding strength in each other symbolizes true love.  Adjustment to each other’s lifestyle and sharing personal space is the key to build trust. Learn and adapt to each other’s mannerisms. Devote and spend quality time together.  Commitment and compatibility allows communication to be open, direct and well received without subjecting it to judgment.

 

Awareness is important. It is imperative to know distrust develops a deep sense of insecurity. It is prudent to recognize one’s strengths and weaknesses in order to channelize energy in right direction. Adverse past experiences make one’s subconscious mind carry limiting beliefs & negative emotions. Reflect, introspect and identify how current situation makes you feel to enable you change the way you think, behave and respond. Prioritizing one’s positive aspects of life helps to release the fears, pain, concerns and change one’s perception towards life. Rather than carrying Guilt & repentance due to mistakes committed one must forgive & be comfortable with self. Spend quality time while having face-to-face conversation with support group or a professional for self-discovery. Accept and love self. Stay put, instead of a reaction choose a response and go with the flow of life.

 

One needs to have a special bond with someone with whom one can talk about anything under the sun. The facing of challenges and prevailing negativity around one adversely impacts the relationships. Ensure mental & emotional connect while growing together duly spending quality time maintaining due respect and discipline in other’s company. Don’t take anything for granted, have open communication devoid of arrogance, inflated sense of importance and express your thoughts & feelings duly appreciating other’s opinion & seeing a disagreement as a disagreement.    

Mental health challenges (emotional & psychological) makes one struggle while dealing with them. Staying away from family and friends makes one loose connect & with time nothing remains common. Stress due to our uncontrolled thoughts & actions when lonely or suffering in silence results in anxiety or depression. Talking about personal issues, in face-to-face interaction with support group, always provides courage to deal with pressing matters. 

 

 

Going through lot of anxiety and worry is part of life. Hold on to love, trust, and faith. Don’t let your hope of overcoming fears go down. Engulfed in feelings of distress, sadness and utter helplessness, it means you have lot of self-doubts rather than self-love. If struggling with disliking certain aspects about self, work on them to stop before these turn you into a negative & unsure person. Thoughts about not being good enough & suppressed emotions leave you unhappy & dissatisfied. Become aware of your unhappiness, don’t set rigid judgment about self, reflect on good things in your day to day life and express your feelings without inhibition. A trained counselor helps you develop a deeper understanding about yourself.
