Don’t wait, just do it!

Don’t wait, just do it! That’s the motto I have been using for my adult life. From my experience, I am talking about how waiting brings nothing but anxiety because we don’t know how it will work out if we don’t try. I was always the one to be scared of doing anything, and still am, but I have adopted the mindset that I will know if I won’t try. Still today, I am scared, but the excitement to learn more about things and gain new experiences has outweighed my disbelief in myself. If I hadn’t started blogging almost five years ago, I don’t know what I would be doing now. Would I still be having this much confidence? Would I have the experience? And so many possibilities would not be coming true. Sometimes things work out in our favour, and sometimes we learn a lesson; there is no in between. There is nothing like bad, it’s all about experience that once we move forward, we understand how strong it made us to handle things. Waiting for things and time to be right and thinking that then you will start is an absolutely bizarre way of thinking to have. Because it’s you who will make the things and time right, but actually indulging in it.

So if you are waiting for the perfect time, it is now and right now! Time waits for no one, so thinking that you will do it later will make a huge difference in your life, and I am not writing in a good way. You need to develop your mindset on how strong and capable you are. And it doesn’t come easily; by facing challenges in your life, you learn about yourself and your strength. Remember, there is absolutely nothing you can’t do if you have set your mind on it.

the book of you

Real life starts with you and ends with you. I always believe in giving yourself priority first; do what you want to do because it’s your life, and you deserve to live the way you want. Recently, it occurred to me that in our childhood, we are a canvas that everyone can come and paint on; however, as we grow up, we learn to protect our canvas. We become a fresh canvas and only allow ourselves to paint however we want. This is the metaphor of life. As adults, we come to know how much we can do. In childhood, the world points out what we are good at and what we are not, and we believe it because we have yet to develop our ability to believe in ourselves. However, as adults, we understand that nothing matters more than our own opinions and thoughts. Whatever the world says, we believe in ourselves and do what we want without anyone’s approval.

The life you have is your book, and you are the pen; fill it however you want. Paint, sketch, scratch, leave it blank, those all represent different aspects of your life, and all are totally okay. The book should represent you, what you want to fill in, because in the end, you are going to sit and grow through your book, aka your life moments. The book of you is special as it indicates how far you have come. Sometimes you have to stop writing, and it’s okay during those times you are taking time to fill up the blank pages ahead with colours.

Remember, the book is yours; never let anyone else even scratch a page in it, and if they do, just tear the page and continue. We are always taught what we have to do with respect to the world; however, we are in this life not to live according to others but to make new pages and fill them with what best describes us. So the book is yours, and you may begin inking it the way you want.

Be Selfish!

Why is it bad to be selfish for ourselves? Why does everyone make us feel bad for choosing ourselves? In life, we can’t have all the things. If we want something, we need to sacrifice other things. However, why does everyone in the world want us to sacrifice what we truly want so that what they want can be achieved? I never understood the concept of living our lives not in our way but in the way others want. The world makes us feel so guilty for choosing ourselves, as if we are abandoning others, which is a serious crime. Why can’t a person live their life in the way they want? The people who are close to us feel that we don’t deserve happiness or freedom. Why does everything need to be done in the comfort of others? Why can’t we just do it without thinking about what others want? Why is being selfish seen as a crime? Why do we need to think about others before making a decision? Why can’t we just make the decision and live it? Why do we have to answer to others? Why is giving freedom seen as losing dominance over us by the world? Why does everything need to be explained when it comes to us living our lives?

There are so many whys when it comes to us making decisions about the life that we are meant to live. I feel like everyone wants us to be selfless in everything, but when it comes to us, nobody wants to be selfless for us. So in the end, we are the only ones who suffer the most. So why not ignore everyone? Maybe it will hurt them, but what about our pain, our hurt? Nobody sees it. So just do the heck you want, live the life, be selfish for yourself. Do what you want to do, don’t listen to others. In the end, the only thing that will be left is the regret of not fighting or the memories that made the life worth fighting for. So be selfish, it’s your life, and believe me, doing what you love is what life is all about.

Quietness!

As I grew older, I realised that there is noise even in quietness. The more I grew up, the more I started liking being alone. In my childhood, I used to believe that being alone was not good at all; however, now I like to spend my time with myself the most. No matter how much social battery I have, I will always need time for myself. It’s actually a privilege to be able to love and understand yourself, and that only happens when we spend time with our thoughts. There is always a voice in quietness, the voice of our inner self that guides us on what and how to do. You can only love others if you start with yourself, and for that, you need to understand what happens in the quietness. I am always someone who will zone out in the loudest crowd. I don’t know why the voice in me is so loud that it never allows the outside voice to reach inside. We can see it as a metaphor too. It’s all in us; if we want to achieve something, we need to trust ourselves and just do it. Don’t let the outside voice take away your inner voice. You can be as loud to yourselves about things that you want in your life. You need to understand that there is a voice in your heart that knows you better than anyone, that stands with you when the world points at you, and that voice is trust and belief. There is so much you can find in quietness, even yourself. It’s mandatory to look after yourself, to be selfish for yourself, to find the voice that describes just you. In quietness, you find yourself, and you start seeing yourself the way you want rather than from the world’s point of view. So being in peace, in quietness, is a way to listen to the inner voice that best describes you.

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.

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!

Random Thoughts…

It’s the little things, always.

I am someone who would sit for hours just looking outside and thinking about my life. And this has been happening a lot lately. A thought ran through my mind about how much my life has changed, and for the better. In childhood, I literally wouldn’t have imagined myself being where I am right now. Honestly, I am too grateful to be here and to be able to do things that I imagined myself not being able to. When I think about how fast my life has changed, I still can’t believe it. Doing something that once was impossible feels so great, especially for someone like me who thought that I was not good at anything. When I even read my old blog posts, I can see how much I have grown. Once what I talked about happened, and now what I am talking about, I will come back to read and feel nostalgic about my past. So many random thoughts keep coming into my mind all the time, especially about myself and my growth. I love to think about my life every now and then, and to be honest, it brings me joy thinking about how much I have grown. Definitely, there are many things that I wouldn’t like to have in my life; however, I am grateful for every small thing. It’s always the small things that make me fully happy and grateful. I don’t know why, but I have been noticing small things bring me more joy, maybe because it’s always the same small things that make a huge difference. I always try to do better and better so that my confidence and my courage keep me at ease. These kinds of thoughts come to my mind when I am deeply lost in my thoughts, and I need to jot them down so that I know my feelings. This post is one of them, and I know many more are to come.

for your own peace, let things be.

Live.

It’s the little things, always.

Just live! That’s the best advice I got, actually, I understood it by myself. Life is meant to have times when everything is going fantastically, and at some point, I will reach my lowest, and perhaps for the longest time. And amidst that, I need to learn to live. I need to understand that life is like that, and I need to learn how to live with it. There is so much happening in my life, it’s all chaotic; however, whenever I feel like it’s getting too much, I just move back and take my time by doing nothing, by detaching myself, and just being ignorant of everything. Taking tension about small things will make my life unlivable, which I won’t even want for my worst enemy.  I want to enjoy my life, and that will happen when I make it possible. Life outside will be peaceful if it is within me. And I want that, I am sure everyone wants that. So, for that, we need to understand that life is a cycle of happiness and sadness, and it goes on. But we shouldn’t doubt whether we can handle it or not. We can do it, just take time and a few lessons to learn. Also, we shouldn’t allow small things to ruin the moments that make us breathe and make us feel that life is worth living for. Living is so important, we are born to live, and I know till now we all are surviving and trying to find the moments where we can live. We often think that after surviving, we will finally live, but that’s not the way. Actually, we need to live in small moments, find happiness in moments and just live life. Life definitely humbles you; it teaches you to stop chasing big things and find happiness in small things. Don’t try to find moments to live; actually, try to make the moments livable for you.

More life. More love. More memories.
