Day

Today one of my relative has written few lines:

No matter how your day was

But at the end of the day when you close your eyes to sleep

If you feel contended and happy then cheers!

Your life is good.

Truly I agree with above lines. When we close our eyes to sleep and get immediate sleep means that we are content and happy. Our life is good. Have you ever felt this? Close your eyes and feel. If you feel then you are truly a happiest and luckiest person on this earth. Because I have seen many persons, they go for sleeping but they think and think and not able to sleep. Somewhere some tensions are going in mind.

That’s a reason we must try to make our day beautiful. We must start our day with positive vibes.

There are many tiny habits which we can follow to make our day beautiful.

1. Start a day by remembering God
2. Yoga/Exercise for at least 20 min.
3. Breakfast
4. Prayer
5. Work

If we follow these habits, our day will be meaningful. We would be able to achieve targets in life. Because these habits will give peace, happiness and joy in life.

Did You Feel anytime Unbelievable Moment in Life?

On May 22, 2018, I was watching IPL Match. This match was a playoff and it was going to be played between CSK(My Favourite-Chennai Super Kings) and SRH(Sun riser’s Hyderabad). 

This match was very important for both teams. Both teams were trying hard to win. But there is a thumb rule of the game, one has to lose in games. 

The Match started at 7:00 PM. CSK was bowling and SRH decided to do batting.

The match had begun. SRH was batting nicely but they were looking bit nervous. They were trying to score high. 

Three players got out at the early stage of the match. CSK Bowling was good. Mr Dhoni, who is one of my favourite player, was fielding just at the back of batsman. As I remember, he caught bowls and two players got out very fast. 

Likewise, SRH was batting and trying to make a high score. All supporters of SRH were cheering to them and expecting a high score. They were able to score 139 runs. Spectators were looking depressed. As they were having high expectations from them.

After 20 min break, CSK started to bat. They were looking nervous because this match was a playoff. They had to win at any cost. If they win then they could get a direct ticket for finals. I was very curious and excited. 

Two players were ready to play. Shane Watson, who is a nice batman, was got out by scoring just 1 run. After that, another player came. Rayudu, Raina also got out very fast. Viewers were looking sad. Now Dhoni, who is the captain of CSK, started to play. He was also looking Dull. Spectators were thinking Dhoni will play good and make a good score. But it was bad luck so he also got out. The score of the team was just 39 with 3 wickets. It was very tough to reach the score of 140 runs. Everyone was looking very down. They were praying that somehow they should win.

Now Bravo came to play. He is also an excellent player. The team was hoping that he will definitely make good scores. But unfortunately, he also got out. I don’t remember the score at that time. It was low only.

SRH was hoping that they will win. Every player of SRH was looking confident. They were building hopes that they would win surely.

In the last, the game was changed completely. Before to D Chahar, who is a bowler, Ravindra Jadeja and Harbhajan Singh got out. The score was low. Now D Chahar came to play. There was one more good batsman named FAF du Plessis. He was batting from the starting of the match. With the collaboration of du Plessis and D Chahar, the score was nice. I think it was 100 above. People were not hoping that team could score high. After some time, D Chahar also got out. Now Thakur came to play. Both players scored nice. Now team score was 134 runs. They were needing only 6 runs to win. Du Plessis shot one six. They scored 140. 

Everyone was looking damn happy. They won the match. SRH lost the match. It was an unbelievable moment for the CSK and the supporters of CSK Team. 

In the end, the game changed entirely. 

Life is also like that. Sometimes we are completely losing. But with the grace of god or blessings of loved ones, task get to accomplish. We say it was unbelievable for me. 

So just do work incessantly. Keep the faith and have blessings. You will achieve whatever you want to get.  

Did you ever feel unbelievable moment in life? Just think.

Keep enjoying. :)

You are the Reason for Your Happiness

Do you think others can please you? Are you searching your happiness in others? If yes, then you are wrong.

Others can’t please you. They are not here for pleasing you.

You are responsible for your happiness.

Sometimes we expect from others. When our expectation doesn’t get fulfilled, we get hurt. Why hurt us because of others.

You make a path for yourself so that you can feel your happiness.

There are so many options for pleasing yourself by your own deeds.

1. Praying- It is a perfect way. Praying God will give you inner peace, confidence and relaxation. Your brain will be calm. On the other side, you will feel god is with you.
2. Planting- When you plant flower, trees and feed water to them. It will give ultimate happiness.
3. Watching Games- Playing games is an excellent way to enrich your health. But sometimes watching games also give you pleasure. You can learn multiple things. How to win? How to balance pressure when you must win? How to be calm in the tough situation. I am watching IPL Cricket matches these days. I am feeling good and learning multiple tricks also.
4. Drawing - Drawing can express your feelings. When you express your feelings to loved ones by drawing, you feel pleasure.
5. Stroll- You can travel to places but sometimes a stroll can relax you.
6. Cooking- Cooking can relax your mind. I have seen many persons. They do cooking with their interest. They feel good.

When you start working for your happiness, you will be too much happy. You will not expect from others. I think it’s an excellent learning in the life. Enjoy the rest of life. :)

Ways for Expressing Feelings

Just close your eyes and think. By how many ways you can express your feelings? Are you thinking you can express feelings by just giving gifts to loved ones? It’s not. 

There are many ways for expressing feelings

1. Eyes

2. Singing

3. Drawing

4. Speaking

5. Working

6. Dancing

Yesterday I thought to draw something. I drew images. I thought to draw about Love. I drew 2 images, and I sent to my husband. When he saw images, he felt good. It has expressed my feelings. My message reached to him without speaking anything.

Have you ever analyzed? Our eyes can express our feelings in a better way. We are happy or angry; it can be easily identified by eyes.

Dancing or singing is a good way to express emotions. Many dancers dance. They express feelings by their dance. Singers also sing a song with emotions. They feel a song and express in the same way.

The way of working shows your feelings. When you are very serious and dedicated towards work, then it shows that you are interested in doing. 

If you are not interested then it will be easily identifiable in your way of working.

The way of speaking is a nice way to show your feelings. If we want to pay gratitude to someone, then our words will be very helpful. Our way of speaking will express everything whatever we feel for him in the heart.

Keep Running in the Race of Life

It’s a true fact that you have to consistently run in the life. Seriously don’t sit for a moment. Just do work and engage yourself where you feel to do.

Set every task as a milestone. Give your 100% energy to accomplish that milestone. Once you achieve one milestone, set another. Keep continuing to set milestones and achieve to them.

In this Life, everywhere you have to be active, smart, and energetic. Please don’t feel down if you are not able to achieve a milestone. Get a lesson and ready to yourself for running in the race of life.

There are many examples by which you can learn to be active.

In Cricket matches, many players are there. If you see them, you will come to know that they have to be very active in every match. They have to come with a mindset that they should win. Just imagine, if they are inactive and less energetic, then it would be very difficult to play a match. Other team members will not support them. Every player has to set his goal. Anyhow, Win and Loss of game depends on fate.

If you join the group of saints then you have to be active and competent there also. Otherwise, you will be alone.

Let say you are alone. Still, you have to be active and smart. Otherwise, you will die simply in this world.

If a politician does not do good work or he doesn’t work in the support of the public, it may possible that their political career goes down.

Lord Mahaveer left the house and did tapasaya alone in jungle day and night. Somewhere he set a goal that is a reason we are praying him today. We are following him today.

Conclusion, Keep continues to run in life. Don't do one task with 100% energy and another task with 50% energy. Every milestone should be started and ended with maximum energy. Did you hear one story of Tortoise and Rabbit? Initially, rabbit slept and it was running fast at the end but tortoise was running consistently. It didn’t sleep. So be like a tortoise. Keep consistency in life. Try to achieve milestones. If fail, don’t feel down. Start with new energy and accomplish a task.

Getting Food is Happiness

There are many parameters for evaluating happiness. 

1. Material Happiness(House, car, jewellery)

2. A balance of Heart and Mind

3. Travelling

4. Money

5. Relationship

Definitely, above all happiness matters for everyone. Today I was having my lunch and got to know that getting food of your choice and on time is also a great level of happiness.

So if you are getting food of your choice and on time, mean that you are lucky in this world. Once you have food, you feel fulfilled to yourself. It gives satisfaction to your mind. You feel regenerated.

Just imagine, those persons who are not able to get food, it’s very difficult for them to live in this world.

Try to offer food to others (Humans or animals or Birds) as per your capabilities. After 30 years, came to know that food also matters in our life. 

What is Maturity

Maturity is when you accept people as they are.

Maturity is when you don’t change persons according to you.

Maturity is when you give solitude to your closed ones.

Maturity is when you accept your parents are having more experiences as compared to you.

Maturity is when you start living with yourself.

Maturity is when you stop expecting from others.

Maturity is when you work for your mental peace.

Maturity is when you see rather than speaking unwantedly.
Maturity is when you see things from the perspective of others.
Maturity is when you are silent in every situation.
Maturity is when you think more before reacting on the matters.

Serving Others give Happiness

Happiness is achieved when you serve others. When you earn money, you buy materials. This material happiness lasts for a short time period but when you serve others or help them, it will give lots of blessings. Your happiness will remain for a long time. You will feel the effects slowly.

When you are a reason for the smile of others and you look at them, you feel a different happiness. It gives satisfaction to you.

There are many ways to serve others.

1. You can do charity for poor children.

2. You can feed to birds and animals.

3. You can help someone who is in need of it.

I have heard when you help someone then it will be paid back to you in a different way.

So be generous and smart also. Don’t be an emotional fool. Be a helping hand for others. Give smile on their faces.

I personally felt this thing. When I feed to birds and help others as per my capabilities, feel happiness. It gives me the confidence to keep continue this. 

Don't be more Emotional

Yesterday I was reading one article. A great sentence was written there. The sentence is - “If you are too much emotional then it will hamper your life.”

I am a person who is more emotional for younger brothers and sisters. So Once I read this, I got energy and felt I should not be more emotional. If we are emotional that it will affect our life also.

We will get disturbed. So better let them do. Everyone knows how to drive their lives.

If you are also an emotional person and get disturbed by the problems of your younger ones or children then don’t get disturbed. Your children and younger ones also know what they want in their lives and how to achieve it. If they really need you, help them. Otherwise, let them handle. No need to jump in each and every matter of them.

It is really a great teaching for me. I am getting a lesson how to behave with them.

Never Procrastinate

If you find any work to do, just do it. Never postpone it for tomorrow, day after tomorrow or in some time. Don't Procrastinate to do work on time.

If you are habitual of doing work immediately, you feel great happiness.

Recently I also got this habit. If we have this habit then all tasks will be completed on time. If we postpone work, it would never be completed. Other tasks which are related to it, will get disturbed. If it got completed, it would surely take more time.

If we stick with this habit, it will become our good quality. Doing all tasks on time will lead us to the path of success.

Once we do a task on time in our daily routine life then it will gradually occur in our professional life also. We would be able to complete a task on time in office.

We will become successful in our personal and professional life both.

Someone has said the secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine. Once you are doing perfectly your daily routine activities, future will also be perfect. I agree with this.

If all tasks are getting completed on time then it will give positive effects to our health. Our mind will be fresh.

Whatever Happy Pals You are Getting now, Just Live

Generally, we don’t live our present. We think let us stretch a little bit to us and might be we will get more. We don’t live our present. We ruin our present for brightening our future.

But I would say just enjoy your present. You will feel extreme happiness. We don’t know what is going to be happening in future.We will get more or not. We would be able to see future or not. Nothing is decided. Your present is only in front of you. If you miss any happy moments, these won’t be back to you.

Previously I was also not living my present but now I don’t miss a single moment. If I get any happy moments, I cheer up immediately.

Truly, your present is more bright than future.

What are the Relations

What are the Relations

Relations are not just for namesake. Relations are live when emotions and feelings are live towards other persons. If relations are not live then there is no meaning. Relations without feelings, emotional attachments are like a human being without a soul.

If you are not able to feel the pain of a person and you are in a relationship for name sake, seriously there is no meaning. Better discard these types of relationships.

How relationship will be strong

When two persons share their personal matters with each other then only it will be strong. Otherwise, it will be just for name sake only.

For example, there is a strong relationship between two friends because they share each and every matter with each other.

Another example, we see many couples. They have a better understanding and strong relationship. Somewhere both of them share their matters with each other.

Sometimes you don’t share everything with other persons but you will say still we are having a firm relationship because we keep faith on each other.

So I would say, definitely these type of relationships are also strong. But bonding will reduce gradually. For making it strong, you have to talk at least once in a week with each other.

Sometimes your best friends become common friends because either you don’t have the time or you are unable to maintain a relationship. You are not sharing everything with each other.

I personally feel this thing. I felt positive and negative impact both.

I am having some relations with a strong relationship. On the other side, I am having some relations where I don’t feel tight relationship. Those relations are just for namesake. Sometimes I don’t feel good.

The reason is that somewhere exchange of thoughts is missing.

Conclusion

Just analyze yourself. If you are also having some relationships with closed ones for name sake only then try to make it strong. Give some time to them. 

When People will Listen to You

One day I was thinking and this question came to my mind. There are many reasons so that people will listen to you and pay attention to your words. You can’t bind them to listen to you.

Firstly, when you are holding a reputed position or having power. 

For example, we have to listen to our managers, leaders and seniors. They are having higher positions. It happens rarely when we can ignore them.

Another example, we have to follow rules. Sometimes decisions are not in favour of a layman. Some persons were supporting currency demonetization. Some persons were not ready to accept. It is decided by our government. Our Leader is in a high position. Everyone has to follow rules.

Secondly, when we win the confidence of others then people listen to us. In daily life, we see many examples.

I feel, one of my friends is a good example. I have seen many times. His near and dear ones, relatives, friends, managers listen to him. Because somewhere he has won the confidence of them.

When we win the confidence of family members then they listen to us.

You can win the confidence of others by your deeds and actions.

Thirdly, when you are having an emotional attachment with a person. 

For example, we listen to our parents and they listen to us. We are having an emotional attachment to each other. We understand and respect feelings.

Fourthly, when you have done some sacrifices for a person.

For example, Parents do sacrifices for their children. Children understand the sacrifices of them. They respect and listen to them. Sometimes they don’t agree with their statement that is due to generation gap. I personally feel sacrifices play important role in life. It can be anything whether sacrifices of things, sacrifice done by husband for his wife, sacrifice done by a wife for his husband, sacrifice towards the family. People value your sacrifices. By doing this, you can win their heart.

Conclusion, if you want to get people listen to you then you must be having great power, great position, emotional attachment or you have done some sacrifices.

But it doesn’t mean you are chasing it like anything. There is no need to prove anyone, just do work in a correct way. By the time, you will acquire. :)

What habits would you like to continue in future

We all know, Good habits bright up our future. After developing these habits, We feel happiness and desire to work with enthusiasm. I thought to build some good habits this year and maintain in the future.

Following are the habits which I would like to continue.

• Yoga- My brother does Yoga daily. He told me many times, but I was not much interested. From Oct 2017, I have started to do yoga daily. I am feeling positive effects in my life. Still, I am doing yoga. I hope it will persist in my life.

• Feeding Birds- One day I kept lentils in sunlight for drying and I saw that birds came there to peck lentil. From that day I have decided to feed birds. I am feeding wheat, lentil, maize to them. Whenever I see them, feel good. I wish I can continue this. 

• Cooking- I am getting interested in preparing various dishes. I always try to prepare delicious and tasty food. Daily I learn some new recipe and decide to prepare. Hopefully, I’ll be perfect and smart in cooking.

• Exploring Places- I and my husband live in Chennai. We are exploring many places. Recently we have visited Balaji, Tiruchanoor, Forum Vijaya malls, Express Avenue, Spencer Plaza. I hope, we will explore many places in this world. 

• Stroll in evening- I regularly go for a stroll in the night at the terrace. I feel relax and calm. I hope to walk fast and keep it up.

• Reading Books- I am interested in reading books. It has many good effects in life. Our vocabulary gets strong and we see the world differently. My husband encouraged me. Now I am always reading books. I hope, this good habit will be persistent in my life.

• Blogging- My husband encouraged me to write blogs. I have started to write blogs and till now I have written 13 blogs. I am writing as per my knowledge and experience. Wishing to keep continue.

What habits would you like to build and continue in coming years? Just think, analyze and write about yourself. Surely, it will give happiness. :)

A Journey to Tirupathi Balaji

On Jan 26, 2018, I and my husband started to have darshan at Tirupathi Balaji in Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, India. The temple is dedicated to Lord Venkateswara Swamy, an incarnation of Vishnu, who is believed to have appeared here to save mankind from trials and troubles of Kali Yuga. Lord Venkateswara is known by many other names: Balaji, Govinda, and Srinivasa.

We started our journey from Chennai to Balaji by Tamilnadu Tourism bus. We reached at Tirupathi town within 3 hours. From Tirupathi, we again hired one more bus to reach Tirumala hill. This is the place where Lord Balaji temple is situated. The hill view was nice and serene.

We started at 11:30 AM for having darshan. We were having a booking for special darshan. It took less time to reach the temple. We reached the temple in nearly 1 and half hours. Many pilgrims came there. We had darshan. Sill I feel, Lord Balaji image is captured in my mind. We sat outside the temple for 5 min. We felt tranquility. We took prasadam “Tirupathi Ladoo” which is offered by the temple to every pilgrim. However, it was not crowded much on that day. We came back to our cottage by 2:30 PM.

We reached at Tirupathi town at 4 PM. After having lunch, we headed towards Tiruchanoor Town. It is 4 and a half kilometer from Tirupathi. Goddess Padmavathi temple is situated here. Sri Padmavathi is the heavenly consort of Lord Venkateswara Swamy. We took special tickets for darshan. We offered lotus flower to the goddess. The temple is an attraction for many Hindu pilgrims. We took prasadam. After darshan, we returned to Chennai and reached by 9:30 PM.

It was a pleasant journey. We were feeling good. It is a must visit place once in a life. We will visit again. 

Keep Quiet

Definition

Keep Quiet means remain silent. It is really a good ability of a person. Everyone doesn’t have this power but if they have, they will be admired.

There is one saying “the ability to speak several languages is impressive, but the ability to keep quiet is appreciated.” 

Why should we be quiet?

Whenever any argument is going on, be silent and listen. Whether you are wrong or correct, keep quiet. If you don’t want to prolong an argument, keep calm.

If you are wrong, definitely you will be quiet. But if you are correct, still you have to be calm. The other person will understand automatically and come back to you.

“Saying is easier than doing” so it’s very difficult to maintain. We will always try to prove ourselves that we are correct.

Generally, women are expected to be calm and quiet. If they react, it is taken in wrong way. One person has to be quiet otherwise argument will go long. We have to learn to be calm.

What to do for being quiet?

For remaining quiet, do meditation or prayer at that time.

From my personal experience, don’t be a part of any argument. Just leave a place, go to a calm place and engage yourself in some other work. You will forget issue for some time and another person will also come back to you. No need to prove ourselves every time. Everyone knows themselves whether they are wrong or right.

Benefits of calmness

If you are able to control yourself, you will feel relax. Your energy will be saved. It won’t become a big issue.

When to Speak?

After some time, discuss an issue. Another person will also understand the matter and you will be able to solve an issue without any argument. Sometimes “speak less” ability also helps you. Generally, fights or arguments happen with a person with whom we speak more. So speak less or whenever it is required.

Your life will be peaceful if you acquire this quality.

A walk at Terrace

I like the atmosphere of calmness. Last night I was walking on my terrace. After half an hour of a walk, I started to listen music on Gaana Application. I was listening songs like “Dil Diya Gallan” and “Tere Naam”. Both songs are picturized on “Salman Khan”. Dil Diya Gallan was sung by “Atif Aslam”. He is one of my favourite singer. His singing is lovely. Another song was sung by “Alka Yagnik”. She has sung this song very beautifully. I was amazed. Felt nice. After some time my Lovely Hubby joined me. We came back after one hour. :)

Beautiful Morning at Marina Beach, Chennai

It was not planned that we are going to the beach but my husband asked me to wake up and let us go to Beach.

We started at 5:30 AM. When we started, there was smoke. A festival, Pongal was falling on the next day so they were burning old met and broom as per their ritual. My husband was driving. The air was chilled, but we were enjoying. We reached there at 6:00 AM. It was dark. Felt extremely good.

We were sitting on the coast side. We were talking with each other. Nearly we sat there for one hour. Water was flowing. Waves were coming and going. The place was very calm. By that time, we were looking at the sky. We saw a group of birds was flying. I think I had seen a group of birds after a long time. In childhood, I had seen at my home but it’s difficult to find in Metro cities. I was amazed to see birds. I and my husband were observing that these birds are also having togetherness. One bird was leading and other birds were following. It was a nice to look at them. Likewise, nearly one hour got over. Then we moved to the roadside. We strolled for some time. Many vendors were there. They were selling many juices like Aloe Vera juice, gooseberry juice, soup, and fruits. I like Morning so much so I was feeling very nice. Whenever I go in the morning, I used to have gooseberry juice so I and my husband took gooseberry juice and soup. We liked too much. The taste was delicious. Even that vendor behaviour was positive.

Many Old age persons, young ones, kids all were there. Some of them were doing yoga. Beach is the nice place to do yoga. Some of them were jogging. Some of them were walking. We had seen trainers. They were providing training to kids in various areas like karate, jump, Meditation, and yoga. I and my husband were looking at kids and thinking these kids have started everything at the early age only. Anyhow, it is helpful for making strong their muscles so that they would be good at any sport.

We had seen one old man. He was feeding birds(pigeons). Lots of pigeons were there. I loved that moment. 

After some while, we were back to home. We arrived at the home at 8:00 AM.

We felt fresh and cool. It was a pleasant, delightful and memorable morning

Believe in giving your 100%

I used to say this statement and even I follow this principle so I decided to write on this.

We should try to give our 100 % every day means we should do our best. We should give our complete energy in any kind of work which we take in our hand. Giving energy means we want to finish and succeed in any task. We should commit our self to any task what we are doing. We do daily many tasks in personal and professional life both.

There is a saying "what we get out of each day that depends on what you put in. And that is up to you." If you are performing a task with energy, the output will be also very positive. If you are performing a task with less energy then there will be a chance of fail or output won't be as per your desire. It is natural, if you are giving bad input, you will get bad output. Sometimes it may possible, you are working with full energy, you get fail but you will not feel any regret. When you do your best, you achieve success.

Why we should give our 100%

It is true that we must give our efforts to finish a task. I felt that if you give your 100% for one year, you will get the benefit for at least next 2 year. So do work with full enthusiasm, the result will be good.

What are the examples

You are writing a blog, keep doing this work. If you give your 100% energy then you will be able to complete within one day with good quality otherwise it will prolong.

One more example, you are preparing for an examination, give your full energy for clearing it. It may possible you won’t get success but you will be happy since you have tried your best.

What prevents you from giving your 100%

Sometimes it may possible, you are working but if you are not getting outcomes then you will be little dull. You will stop doing work. But we should keep continuing without expecting anything. You will get outcomes. Even I am also getting lesson not to give up. Keep continue and do your best.

Togetherness, Loneliness and Solitude

Today I am writing about togetherness, Loneliness and Solitude. Well, all three words are very simple but have a great meaning.

Togetherness is a most important aspect of life. It means you are united with another person. You are working together with understanding. It gives us security, strength and much-needed support. It encourages us to love one another. If we are together then we get success.

One example, when a husband and wife having collaboration in their life then their level of confidence would be very high. They get success in every aspect of life.

One more example, we are definitely getting money for what work we are doing in projects. But if we are not having any good understanding, bonding, togetherness with other members then it would be very difficult to successfully launch a project. That’s a reason teamwork capability is expected from an employee which is a good virtue of a person. When team members work in collaboration then they get success in projects and professional life.

So togetherness is vital in personal and professional life both.

Loneliness is a painful and negative state of a person where he feels alone.

When you are surrounded by others but if you are not able to communicate then it is known as loneliness. You are not bonding with other person or that person is not able to understand you that condition also explains loneliness.

We see many examples in daily life where we can feel that they are together but they are alone in real because somewhere some bonding is missing among them.

Just imagine if they are having good or best collaboration, best togetherness, best understanding then they will be very confident in life. They can cheer in life. They can enjoy in life. It will bring lots of happiness and peace. That’s a reason togetherness plays a very important role in different aspects of life.

Loneliness is not good for a person because it kills you from inside. A person will feel like he is unnoticed or unwanted by others. He is rejected by them. It leads to depression and loss of self-esteem also. So to overcome this, don’t feel yourself lonely because in this world everyone feels lonely. Keep engage yourself in a work which you like the most. Talk freely with a person with whom you feel comfortable. Listen to music and smile. J

On the other side, Solitude is the positive state of mind. It is chosen by a human being. When he wants to live alone willingly for accomplishing a goal or relaxing mind then solitude is chosen by him. Sometimes people just sit alone at the calm place or they go in nature for getting solitude. It is a lovely feeling where he will feel quite fresh.

Live: What is a Dedication

Today I was looking at my landlord aunty and I was feeling, she is a too much-dedicated lady because she is so much dedicated towards her children and work.

I thought to write about Dedication.

Dedication means you are dedicating yourself towards any goal, task or work. It can be anything. When you are connecting intellectually or emotionally towards your task or you are binding yourself towards any work at a great level then this is known as dedication.

When you are dedicated then you won’t be just good at the task but you would be best. You will devote yourself completely without worrying anything.

Let us take one example, a mother is dedicated towards her children. She never thinks about herself. She does work endlessly. She just wants that her children be happy always. So Mother is a good example to show the meaning of dedication.

Another example, suppose you want to create a garden at your home then definitely time and energy are required for planting trees. But if you are focused and dedicated to planting trees then you would be able to do. You will not worry about time and energy.

One more example, we work at the office. We work there with dedication. We perform our duties honestly.

Another Meaning of dedication can be like you are honest towards performing duties at your work or goal.

Dedication is commitment also. When you are committed to any work then it shows your dedication only.

Dedication brings success in life. Definitely, if you are doing work with full energy then you will get success in your life. It may possible you get failure but you won’t leave but you will work till you don’t achieve your goal.

Living:- Habits of a successful person

Today I was reading some articles about success so I came to know that we should acquire some good habits in our life. Good habits give lots of happiness, success, smiles, prosperity in life.

Here are some habits of a successful person which we should follow.

1.       We should be Goal oriented. Every successful man has some certain goals and he accomplishes those goals in a defined time. We should decide in the night only what we have to do next day.

2.       We should be a good learner. Daily we should learn something or write something because we don’t know when this knowledge will help us.

3.       We should be health conscious. We should watch out for our diets, how much we are having. Do exercise, yoga and meditation also.

4.       We should do prayer also. Prayers give us a different level of confidence. Problems will come in life but solutions would be also possible for them.

5.       We should wake up early in morning. If we wake up early in morning then our tasks will also get completed soon and we feel fresh.

6.       If Failures come to life then don’t get depressed but try to get lessons and not to repeat those mistakes again in future.
