Focus on yourself!

You get what you focus on so focus on what you want.

Focus on yourself and what you truly want. From our childhood, we were always told what we would be when we grew up. When we grow up, we start to realise the meaning of life, ourselves and what we truly want. Everything changes. When we realise that there is a voice in us that is totally different from others, we need to understand it. When we reach a certain age, we come to realise ourselves, and we also face insecurities that others love to point out. In the beginning, we will hate our insecurities, we will try to hide them; however, with time, as we grow, we understand that no one matters but us. We start to love ourselves, we start to embrace our insecurities, and in the end, no one matters but us. I feel like it’s such an underrated and rare feeling about starting to love ourselves, choose ourselves and just be the bird flying with the biggest wings ever. Focus on yourself, this is your life, and you have every right to live it the way you want. When you choose yourself, many things will be left behind, and that’s okay because you are doing it for yourself. We live in a world where we will have thousands of people who have an opinion on us, but what we need to do is just let go. Focus on yourself, your mental health, your wellbeing, you being healthy is most important. Life becomes peaceful when we choose ourselves, do what we really love and let our inner self be at ease. So just do what really makes you happy, don’t let others ruin your happiness because you choose yourself. The world will always say something, so why not just focus on yourself and do what you really love, because what matters is your happiness and nothing else. True happiness and relief come from doing things that our heart desires, so just focus on yourself!

Focus on yourself don’t get lost in other people.

Is life this serious?

Don’t think too much.

The question that changes in the situation of lives. I love to watch interview videos of old people and the advice they give. Among all the videos, the most common one was to live life to the fullest, because we will regret not living in the moment. When I think about life, I see it as a process that continues. There will be sadness, but also, after that, happiness is going to wait for us. If we take life too seriously, then when are we going to live? We can’t be waiting for life to give us the chance, but we have to make it in the moment. What I feel is that life is not that serious; it’s how we make it that matters the most. At this point in my life, I have seen many situations and overthought a lot, but in the end, everything went well. But overthinking takes a heavy toll on my health, which is hard to recover from. So whenever I come across a situation, I try not to overthink it but trust my abilities. The thing that I don’t like is regret that someday in my life ahead I will have the regret that I didn’t live my life the way I wanted to, just because I overthink a lot or take my life too seriously. We can’t bring time back, so we take life too seriously, just thinking about problems, and not enjoying living in the moment, which kind of destroys the whole purpose of life. It’s all on you, how you analyse the situation, and don’t let your heart be closed to the world. Open yourselves up to the world; there is so much to enjoy, it’s our mind that is stopping us from letting us live, but create that mindset, and everything will be fine.

Don’t worry about what you can’t control.

The burden of…everything

Not everything that weighs you down is yours to carry.

Why does every responsibility need to be a burden? As we learn to take responsibility, why does it keep increasing slowly, and why does every person need to make us aware of how little we are doing? Why can’t anyone see how hard we are trying every single day, every single minute? The burden becomes so much that we don’t even realise when we stop laughing, zoning out in the crowd and stop doing what we really love. Then I ask myself the question, who is going to save me? And the instant answer that I get is myself. My courage and my abilities to know my capabilities. As an adult, I know that I should keep myself as the biggest priority, and I should take care of myself. The day we start thinking for ourselves and saying no, which is necessary, everything will change, but for ourselves, everything will get better. What we like, what we love to do, what we want to be in the future, all of these questions are answered by ourselves only. There is no one to share the burden, and I don’t think we need anyone. It’s life, it is going to be full of responsibilities; however, when it starts to suffocate you, it’s time to take action and think for yourself. Keeping boundaries while choosing yourself is very important and healthy. I feel like the world doesn’t allow a person to live their life but to care for others, but that’s not right. Aren’t we supposed to live the life that is given to us? So just focus on yourself and don’t let the responsibilities of others ruin your life. Speak up for yourself and do it because you want it, not because others expect from you. Others will go; they will live their life while putting responsibility on you. But you have to speak up for yourself, don’t allow others to control your life. You live once, so live it to the fullest.

Lay your burden down.

Bravery

She was powerful, not because she wasn’t scared but because she went on so strongly, despite the fear.

I always used to think that bravery means not crying, being strong and never overthinking. However, I understood that this is the perception of humans’ means of being brave, and according to me, it’s totally absurd. Being able to not show your emotions is totally inevitable as we are humans, and it’s meant to be there. Emotions are some of the most powerful things to exist in humans that are meant to come out; what we need to understand is how to handle them. At every step, we are afraid because nobody can predict the future, so it’s totally normal to be afraid. However, we begin the journey and move forward with it because of our bravery to just do it. Bravery means being able to do it irrespective of thousands of fears. Bravery means having a breakdown and then showing up just because that’s what you really are. Bravery means being afraid of new things and then taking on the challenges to accomplish them. Bravery doesn’t come from being strong but from being able to handle emotions, create a mindset, trusting your capabilities, challenging your fears and knowing that you will handle everything. Crying was always seen as a sign of weakness, but it’s not absolutely wrong to cry and let our emotions flow. When we accept everything about ourselves and understand it, only then can we love ourselves. Freedom always comes when we face the fear, be brave, just do it. Nobody knows how to do everything at first; we all face the fear, be brave, and slowly learn to do it. The thing that I admire and want is my courage to do things. I was an introverted child with so much fear in myself, and now I have built myself in a way that I do so many things even with fear. I complain, I get afraid, I could feel my hands shaking, and my heart beating fast, and still I do it because I know if I don’t do it now, if I don’t feel the fear, then I won’t be doing it ever. And this scares me the most, that just because I was afraid, I stepped down. So be brave, face the fear and just do it.

Let it be hard.. Let it be scary. And then do it anyway.

The Silence after realising… (Poem)

The silence after realising

That no matter how I try, nothing changes

With so many expectations

Waving on my mind

Aren’t we supposed to live this life?

The silence after realising

That the world is a race

I am always stuck in a maze.

Is it bad to be different from others

Or maybe the world doesn’t appreciate wisdom.

The silence after realising

That life is full of thorns

And I am trying to bloom within like a rose

Red, imperfectly perfect and beautiful within.

The silence after realising

No one is there for you except yourself,

So pick yourself up and be the light that shines through.

The silence after realising

That whatever the world says,

You always follow what your heart whispers!

-wordsbyher

Another day, another poem. I don’t know how I feel about this one. I think I can do better. But anyway, sometimes being flawed is way better and a way of life.

I hope you like it. If you want, you can share your thoughts!

Life happens…

Life will test you, twist you, and tire you, but it’s the breaking that teaches you how to rebuild.

Yes, most of the time we are sitting and thinking about how much life happens and brings us to a point where we just don’t know what to do or process. What I have seen is that nobody has anything figured out. As we move on, we figure things out, and eventually it leads to the endpoint. However, the time spent figuring out what to do is some of the strangest to exist. Most of our lives, we spend thinking about what to do with various situations that come in front of us, and sometimes we are just circling around, not knowing what to do. The confusing stage of what to do next and how everything will happen puts us in denial that maybe we are not too strong for anything. What I have learned is that situations are what make us strong, not strong as the building, but strong as the tree that still moves around in the high wind but is still rooted to the ground. Every single event in our lives tests how strong we are as humans. When I say strong, that doesn’t mean that crying and having a breakdown make you weak. Strong means being able to know that once we handle ourselves, we can figure it out like always. Life happens most of the time, and I know it’s unfair that we are thrown into this world to deal with things that shouldn’t even exist. However, what we can do other than making ourselves strong is understand our worth and make our will so strong that not even we can break it. Sometimes, we need to sit down and just allow ourselves to feel everything. It’s important to give ourselves time to let everything flow smoothly and to let life happen.

Maybe you should stop overthinking and just trust the way life happens.

Life is a circle.

Sometimes the end and the beginning are the same place.

Life is a circle, and the moment I understood it, my life changed forever. What goes around comes around; we have heard it a lot. But what does it mean in terms of life? According to me, when in life we do certain things for the first time, we might lack something, or it doesn’t work out, but as we move forward towards other things somewhere, we also get to deal with what never worked out in the first place. It seems strange to think like that, but we have seen the practicality of it. Life is a circle, and we know a circle is a loop that never ends. It has no ending point, heck, not even a point, so as we move forward with life, at some point we will come back to the beginning; however, this time everything will be different. Your view towards life, your thoughts, your strength, and your choices. Maybe sometimes we need to go back and start from the beginning to learn more about ourselves and what exactly we want from life. We are in a constant loop as we finish something, the next chapter is there to begin. As we move forward, we learn through experience, and our minds understand more about life, more about ourselves, and what our hearts desire. What you do always comes back to you, which also means that today, when we are doing so much hard work to create a future, the circle of life is waiting to reward us with what we always wanted. Maybe that’s why circles don’t have lines: so we don’t have to worry about the future. A clear line shows how far away we are, but a circle will never let you know.

Life is a circle. What you do comes back to you. Always!

Inevitable Courage

Courage is simply the willingness to be afraid and act anyway.

What’s the one thing that we learn over time is to have courage, the inevitable courage. I am surrounded by people who are dealing with a lot of things, but the amount of courage they have is truly commendable. The first thing we do is always make ourselves understand that we are going to do it, so what’s this? It’ss the courage to move forward and just do it. Many things in our lives are inevitable, and we want to remove them, and you know what we need to replace them with: inevitable courage. Having courage is huge because in life we face a lot, and to overcome them, we need the courage to face them. Everything begins with courage; just thinking about starting, we need courage for it. The inevitable courage to deal with every situation, every circumstance, and just keep going. And this takes time, we need to understand ourselves first, know our capabilities and learn how much we know. And then only the courage comes because we know how much we can handle. Courage also comes with a lot of firsts, both of which won’t exist without each other. If there is courage, then there is also fear and vice versa. Inevitable courage doesn’t mean you will not be afraid; you will feel everything, your heart will tremble, your knees will be shaking; however, you are still holding up because you know yourself and how strong you are mentally. The true courage is that which won’t let your fear hold you back; it will lift you up and push you forward, fear or no. So it’s all about courage to move forward, to do anything in your life. Fear will always be there, but learn to believe in yourself and just do it, with inevitable courage.

“Everything start with one brave decision.”

Afraid…

you’re afraid to let yourself be happy because you know that it never lasts

I have grown up watching so many dramas where the leads are happy for some time, and then something major will happen, ruining their life. In almost all dramas, there is a fear that happiness is short-lived. And this also kind of resonates with real life. We are always in constant distress that happiness will not last long. Maybe celebrating too much will lead to bad things and so much more. Actually, we take a lot of tension to be happy, which is such an irony. Nowadays, happiness is short-lived because we are in constant tension of the next step and the challenges it’s going to bring. We never really sit down and thoroughly enjoy the happiness; we are just rushing to the next thing. Well, what can we do with the constant demand of the world to do better and more? I read somewhere that we spend so much of our lives worrying about something going bad that we never thoroughly enjoy what’s in front of us. It’s a routine that we are always afraid to choose happiness because we feel like it can be lost anytime now. However, this is life, with phases at every moment, but that doesn’t mean we don’t deserve happiness. I think we need to let go and just go with the flow. I know it’s tough to stop thinking about the future and worrying about it, but when living in the present is more sensible than worrying about the future. Don’t be afraid to celebrate every little win of your life; it’s your moment, and you deserve to appreciate yourself. Who is going to celebrate you winning if not you? Ignore the voice that constantly makes you worry, but start listening to your heart and appreciate yourself for everything. Feeling afraid is inevitable; however, we can’t live like this, learn to enjoy every single win of your life by leaving behind the stress of the future.

be afraid and do it anyway

I rise again and again (Poem)

Being Average sucks,

I guess everything depends on luck.

People say you are born with talent,

So what should I spend my time lamenting?

No, I will rise again and again,

Show the world the new life I begin.

Giving up was never a solution

As I have made a resolution

Of rising again and again

Making myself whole again.

-M A

I saw the phrase ‘I rise again and again’ and instantly thought of writing a poem. And I wrote it in probably five minutes. I am so proud because I used to think I wouldn’t be able to write poems, but I am getting better at it.

I hope you like it.
