Take Ten - #1

         Starting today, I am going to posting 10 musings for 10 days. 

Here's today's,

1. The most important relationship in life is the one you have with yourself.
2. When you are at the top, the only you can go is the bottom. When you are at the bottom, the only place you can go is at the top.
3. I wish someone had told me Graduation is the last day of Freedom.
4. Make us just another memory that keeps us up every night.
5. Choices that you make out of inability are not life solutions.
6. Gain your Self - respect, lose your Ego.
7. If someone does not value you, leave. Go where you are celebrated, not tolerated.
8. Finish what you start, especially if it's hard.
9. Don't show more than you want to divulge.
10. I find my sin within her existence, I find my destruction within her persistence.

All these are not my lines. I have just collected them since I found them meaningful. Stay tuned for more!

My March Reading Wall - 3rd Month Done

  

               I posted my February Month Reading Wall. Here is my March Month Reading Wall,


1. The Secret Garden --> By Frances Hodgson Burnett
2. Those Were The Days --> By Jenny Bravo
3. Becoming --> By Michelle Obama
4. Sri Raghavendra Teertharu 
5. Option B --> Sheryl Sandberg


Undoubtedly, my most favorite book was Becoming. I absolutely loved the book beyond words. But my surprise book was the book on Sri Raghavendra Swamy that I picked up at the temple in Mantralaya. So much to know about this saint, that my Bhakti towards this saint has even further increased in leaps and bounds. 

The Last Day of Another Month - Bye Bye March 2019

March 31st - 2019, it's the last day of the month. At the end of every month, I will review how my month has gone by and here is the synopsis for this month,


1. Read 5 Books
2. Worked out 6 days a week, sometimes 7 days
3. Meditated 5 mins every single day
4. Have posted a blog every single day
5. Recited Hanuman Chalisa every single day


Yes, this month I did try a new thing on the religious front of trying to chant. There was a time I couldn't read Hanuman Chalisa. But this challenged me to start leaning and here I am today capable of reciting it fast and clear. It feels bliss. 

I hope to learn something new for April and continue doing what I have done. 

Tomorrow I am going to post a blog about all the books I have read for this month. Stay along!

Go Online

                Doing an online course stemmed of utmost boredom sitting at home. While I was browsing, I stumbled upon a website - Udemy and I got on this site to check courses. All courses are paid on this site and they have tonnes of them to choose from. I sat for a while and found a few courses of interest,


1. Fundamentals of BA
2. Introduction to PM
3. A course on Interior Designing


None of the courses are interconnected, but these were subjects I have interest to explore these new skills. So I paid up for these courses, got online and started one at a time. Trust me, I enjoyed doing online courses. I have finished the first one and have two more to finish, but I do it at my own pace. 

So for you folks who are skeptical to get online to explore new areas of learning, shed the skepticism and get online. It's fun!

This Thing Called LOVE

               Sometime back my mum shoved a supplementary paper of Deccan Herald - Living under my nose. She pointed to an article and asked me to read it. So last night, I finally pulled that paper and sat down to read it.

So here  is the summary of what the article said, 


1. Let harmony be a priority.
2. Learn to pause and listen to other person's POV.
3. When there is tension, think of what you can do to nurture the relationship.
4. Be kind to one another even when you have had a bad day.
5. Be humble and open - hearted.
6. Cultivate the way you speak so that your voice flows like nectar, in a soothing way without harshness or sharp rise and fall in your tone.
7. Be patient.
8. Let go of resentments.
9. At bedtime, take a min to close your eyes and feel sorry for anything you have done to hurt others. 
10. Accept the other person just as they are without trying to change them.
11. A sense of humor goes a long way.


There are a few points that I do not agree to, but overall the article did make sense. But I wonder how much does put into practice in real life. It sure won't be easy, but I am sure it won't be very hard either, if one actually decided to give it a shot at a relationship.

Keep the MOJO on

                 I think we all have a charm inside us and tat is often called - A MOJO. This mojo keeps us going through a lot that goes on in our lives. Sometimes, we do lose this mojo,

1. Personal life crisis
2. Professional life problems
3. Physical issues
4. Mental states
5. Mind games

But in life we should always have our mojo,

1. Keep us happy
2. Charming
3. Smiling
4. Soul satisfying
5. Mind enriching

Mojo helps us have that jump in our step at every stage in our lives. We are alive because we feel alive. 

Keep the MOJO on always!

Captain Marvel- Movie Review

               Who isn't a fan of Marvel Comics? Well, if there are some, then I have nothing to say to them. 
Yesterday I watched the movie - Captain Marvel and I must say what a fine movie it turned out to be. 

Captain Marvel - Kree Warrior, finds herself in between an intergalactic battle between her people and Skrulls. 

The cat - Goose is absolutely adorable. 

All Marvel fans, go watch this amazing movie.

Recommendation: High
Rating: 5/5
