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.

One more Web Series







                GIRL BOSS - I have been seeing a lot of YouTube videos talking about Girl Boss and it always irked my curiosity. While I was browsing, I found a series on Girl Boss - Netflix. Then I researched to realize this is based on a book titled Girl Boss by Sophia. 

How this girl starts her e-bay business Nasty Gal is the story to begin with. From e-bay business to starting her own website in the same name. Her grit in galore is to be appreciated. 
Overall a nice watch, but I am still going to read the book without a miss.

Recommendation: Medium - High
Rating: 3.9/5

Ditch the Live-In Denial






Some of us like to live-in Denial. Try to change that perception, it bounces right back like a boomerang with even more vigor. But, if we really should get over being in Denial, here are the 3A's rule to keep in mind,

1. Accept
2. Acknowledge
3. Act

First step is to Accept that we lice in Denial. Once the acceptance sets in, begin to acknowledge the same. Final step is to act on it. 





Live-in with Denial is no fun. So don't even try to get into that space. Ditch the Denial!

How much love is enough to love?





               LOVE - The four letter word that creates swirls in lives. Love in any form, be it to your pets, family, friends or just about anything that one thinks they can love, is it enough or not?

But specifically, lets stick to love towards a spouse or a couple in a relationship. How do we ever know how much to love? Or how to love so that much is enough? Or is it ever enough to love? Or we shouldn't really quantify love. I am not sure. 

Love is a feeling that arises to that special person in life. I don't think we can pull the reins and decide that our love will remain in the middle of the spectrum or on either ends. It can neither be measured 
nor weighed. 

So how much love is enough to love - Is something that will always gallop in one's mind, but the heart will always know when to pull  or push the reins.

Supporting Spouse is the Greatest Armour





           Isn't it true that a supporting spouse is indeed a great armor. And, of course it works both ways - Husband or the Wife, when I say spouse. The amount of happiness, satisfaction, contentment and all the various other factors that we feel , is unexplainable. 

Various ways to be supportive,

1. Emotional
2. Mental
3. Physical
4. Financial
5. Spiritual
6. Ethical

Be it a career, home front, kids, nothing can work out to match the support extended by the spouse. So to all the spouses who are being nothing but supportive, a loud shout out to all of you. It's fabulous and the ride is going to be fantastic.
