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.

It’s okay.

Hey, its okay.

These two words are so powerful that they make everything better for me. It’s okay for everything basically, every mistake, every emotion, every small thing. It’s okay if a mistake is made; you don’t need to put pressure on yourself. It’s very common to fear that everything will now be over after making a mistake. But that’s not like it; nobody is perfect, however experienced one is, mistakes are inevitable. Reassurance is so important, and nobody does it; it’s you who has to do it for yourself. It’s okay to make mistakes and learn from them. Everything in the end works out perfectly because a mistake doesn’t mean everything is lost or finished. I tell myself this sentence so many times, and it definitely gives me the courage to handle it smoothly without compromising my mental health. Nothing is ever bigger than my mental health, and I need to protect it. Mistakes are inevitable, but how we handle them is crucial. It comes with time, where we get used to knowing how to correct it. It’s okay for literally everything; we as humans are meant to live a life that we enjoy. Putting pressure on mental health will do nothing good except that it will make everything worse. Take time, look at how the mistake can be fixed and just go with the flow. It’s going to be alright, every situation passes away, and we know we can handle it. Just don’t make a huge deal out of it, understand it and then smoothly work through it. Tell yourself it’s okay, everything is going to be fine. Life is like that; moments pass away, and we learn how to live through them. So whatever is happening in your life, I hope it’s all good, but if you are unable to express yourself. I am here telling you that it’s okay, everything happens for a reason, just be brave, have courage, and everything will be okay.

You’re not always fine, and that’s okay.

Somethings are worth waiting for!

There is a seat waiting for you at tables you haven’t even seen.

When we get something after doing hard work, we actually feel satisfied and take it very seriously. I do believe that satisfaction after achieving something in life comes with a lot of patience. Sometimes life tests our patience and makes us work hard for it, but after getting it, we do feel satisfied. When I talk about myself, I was a very introverted child with no passion or interest. But now I look at myself, I am doing so well and all by myself. I definitely worked really hard to get here, and it was worth waiting for. It is so important in life to be grateful for things that we already have or for the things we are achieving. I always wanted to do things that bring me happiness from inside, and I think it is taking time. Obviously, because it is something I have been manifesting for a long time. It is also said that beautiful things take time, as it makes us feel that the efforts we have put in are worth every minute. For every single thing, there is a wait in life. Nothing comes without waiting. And I try to be grateful for the same, that at least I have the opportunity to at least try something, and maybe it will work out. While writing this post, an image is made in my mind of how it feels when we achieve something that we have been desiring for a long time. And after achieving it, everything around us gets blurred, and we get numbed. I feel like this feeling is rare, and it comes after waiting for something really worthy. I would always say that Universal has a better plan than we do; we just need to have patience and believe. The more I have grown, the more I believe in the plan and time of the universe. If it’s right, it’s going to happen no matter what, and I think this has helped me be strong mentally. So don’t worry, everything is going to be worth a while.

Every wait, has a worth.

Not starting is scarier…

Sometimes we have to stop being scared and just go for it. Either it’ll work or it won’t. That is life.

I used to think that taking the opportunity would be scarier, and entering into a new world would be impossible because I didn’t know anything. This was my mindset. However, as I grew up or was growing up, I realised that no matter how much I read theoretically, the most I will learn through the practicality of my life. Now, as an adult, if I let an opportunity go by, be it big or small, it hurts me so much because I don’t know what that opportunity would bring me in the form of a blessing. I have read about many people, and all of them talk about how they were looking for something else, and suddenly, one opportunity came, and just like that, they took it, and now they are where they were supposed to be. Now, as the realisation hit me that if I let go of the opportunity due to my fear of not getting selected, it would harm me more than being rejected after giving it a shot. Not starting is scary, which is my mindset whenever I am about to try something new. I made up my mind that I should give it a try. I don’t know how much I know, and I will not know until I try. Rather than doubting myself before even starting, I focus on what I am about to learn. Rejection teaches us a lot. I am writing it with my experience, it makes us think that at least we tried, at least we overcame our fear and went through it. It’s life, there will be many rejections, but that doesn’t make you a failure, but the strongest soldier who took the first step. Start just start, no matter how scary it looks, trust me, when you look back, you will be so proud of yourself. For you to look back and be proud, you need to start, no matter how scary it looks, it will make such a difference in your life.

Making a big life change is scary. But you know what’s scarier? Regret.

Mindset.

If you know you can do better, then do better.

It’s all the game of your mindset that leads you to win or lose…The moment I realised that I need to create a mindset for everything I do in my life is the moment everything changed in the way I look at things. It is not easy to always have a positive mindset towards things because it’s life, and it throws a lot at you. But what else can we do besides accepting it by creating a mindset? By that, it doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t let your emotions out, no, that’s not what I meant. What I am saying is that you need to create your mindset in a way that prepares you for the situations that will come your way. Mindset doesn’t always need to be positive, but also about how you let your emotions follow and then create your mindset to move ahead and make things right. The best advice I can give you is to do something when you want to, without worrying about the outcome. Instead, focus on creating a mindset that what you are doing is for your growth and to strengthen your mindset. When you deal with things with challenges in life, that’s how your mindset becomes strong, and you are ready for the future. Even if the result didn’t come the way you wanted, but you know in your mind that you gave your best, your mindset is ready for another challenge. It’s all about your mindset, how you handle things, how you look at things, and how you deal with them. And don’t worry about how you are going to learn how to make your mindset; it happens when you take risks, it happens when you blindly follow what you love, and the result helps you make your mindset grow. Take the risk, don’t worry about the result, because no matter what the result will be, one thing is for sure, that you are ready for the future because of your strong mindset.

A beautiful day starts with a beautiful mindset.

It’s okay to slow down.

You will find your way, even when it feels like you won’t.

I have been telling myself lately that it’s okay to slow down, and the only thing that is keeping me sane. You know when you reach a level where you are doing so much but are unable to see the result, yes, that’s where I am. I want to fly so high, but whenever I feel like I am about to touch the sky, it moves far away, and I start feeling that maybe flying high is not written in my destiny. I have been in a phase which makes me so proud to see how far I have come, but also in a phase where I am unable to be proud of myself; it feels like there is always something that pulls me back. I’m experiencing a range of emotions, but at the same time, I feel nothing; this is my standard status for so many years. And I let my emotions flow within me. If I am not feeling well mentally, then I won’t force myself to do anything, and that’s how I feel better. I always remind myself that my health is more important than anything, and if it makes me slow down, then it’s totally okay. Actually, everybody says to work hard and do it, but when it starts affecting your health, then slow down and let your emotions flow. Slowing down doesn’t mean you are behind; no, it’s all about your pace. I always remind myself to focus on my own journey and not compare it to others. It’s okay to slow down and reflect on how far you have come; it’s okay to dwell on how things didn’t go perfectly, allow all your emotions to flow; it doesn’t make you feel insane, but it will allow your mental health to be sane. Everything you are doing is perfect, even when you feel like it’s not, but at least you are trying. Life is all about making you feel all the emotions and nothing at once, so slow down if things feel too heavy, take a rest, look in the mirror and smile for how much you have held up, and if you want to cry, cry, it doesn’t make you weak but proud that you are allowing yourself to be okay.

It’s okay to grow slowly.

Rejection…

To all the doors that closed on me: I’m coming back to buy the building.

I think failure and rejection are never talked about enough; everybody tells us about success, but nobody talks about how to deal with failures and rejections. And I am here to share my thoughts on how to deal with it. I will start by going straight to the point: yes, rejection hurts the most, and it will pinch you every now and then. You may seem fine upfront, but the rejection will be eating you from the inside. So here’s what I have to say: you are allowed to fail, you are allowed to start again, and you are allowed to take a break. Never ever compare yourself to others, everyone has their own journey. Maybe you are meant to be mentally stronger to enter your phase of success. Even after becoming successful, you can experience failure because it’s a part of your life. Life is all about rocky roads, one day you will feel like you have achieved everything, while another day you will feel like you are back at the start again. Whenever I take up a new challenge, I always say to myself that I believe in myself, whatever the result will be, I will give my best, and whatever happens, happens for a reason. You need to build up your courage by trying again, by examining your failure, and rather than dwelling on what has already happened, why not focus on improving yourself and becoming stronger? This way, when you do it all over again, you can do it better, and you’ll actually feel the difference. Have the courage to believe in yourself, and failure is a part of your life. Remember, just a part of your life, it doesn’t define your life, but the courage to take that failure and lead the way towards success will define your life. And never ever listen to others and never give them the right to say anything about you or your life, it’s your life and you know how capable you are of everything. So rejection is nothing to be embarrassed about, but learn from it and make it your strength to do better.

Rejection is the most powerful motivation.

Lost a version of myself

Maybe losing is a disguise to slow down life and truly live in it. – M A

Nobody talks about that, as you become an adult, you also lose a past version of yourself, a version that you never wanted to lose. We always thought that as we grow older, things would get better, but nobody talks about the battle with life, how much we have to work hard to overcome our insecurities to see the lessons from our failures, and whether we are going to make life better or not. At this point in my life, when I look back, I’ve lost a version of myself, a version that never overthinked about life that was really optimistic in whatever she wanted to do, but after seeing and going through the struggles, every time in my mind it goes through that I have become a version where I’ve lost the spark, the spark that people feel when they accomplish big, the spark that people feel after getting into their dream college. Even though I’ve been through all of those pages, that spark is what is missing. I am at that place in my life where things are moving way too fast, and I’m getting overwhelmed. I feel like we are moving so fast in every step of our lives, before we even appreciate where we are right now, we need to move on to achieve greater things. Time is moving so fast, which has also contributed to losing the excitement, because we truly are not living in the moment, but running a race. We have become like robots. Maybe we expect so much from life that at a certain point, when we reach a step, we are so exhausted that we become so dull, so that it takes time to get our sparks back. And then that version doesn’t exist anymore. I feel like we really need to take time and reflect on what we have in our lives right now, and enjoy what truly makes us happy and brings a spark in our eyes, rather than see a lost version…

The girl and her lost version…

Stop waiting to feel ready!

Action cures fear. Move before you feel ready.

I have been in that stage of my life where I am ready to take up the biggest challenge of my life and go ahead with it like a job. And I am a person who is ready to do a job, but when the opportunity comes, I get so afraid and insecure that will I be able to do the job? And when I start, give it some time, I feel better. Adulthood is really hard because we are constantly upgrading ourselves, learning new things, and in that, we come across a lot of challenges. However, from my personal experiences, you will never feel ready. There will never be a moment where you will feel that from tomorrow I am going to do it, no, you need to show up and then only you are going to do it. Life is all about challenges; you have to take the first step, you have to show up. That’s the biggest thing I learned: there will be no realisation before I do anything, it will only happen after I do it. Because feeling ready is not a sudden emotion, it’s a practical aspect of life, and you need to be practical about it. Feeling ready is a decision you need to make. The first few moments will be uncomfortable; however, as you show up, things will get better, and you will feel like you were born ready. It’s all about your mindset, no matter what people say, if you are ready, make the decision to do things right in your life, it will happen, slowly, but you will feel the progress. Believe in yourself and your knowledge, it’s all going to be alright, and it’s all up to you. Don’t wait to feel ready; if you know you can do it, then take up the opportunity and go for it. That’s how you learn by trusting yourself and believing in your skills, so go for it and stop waiting to feel ready!

Stop waiting to feel ready. Ready is not a feeling. It’s a decision.
