DID YOU FIND YOUR BLUE MOON?

"Once in a blue moon" - that's how I'd describe my journey in life so far. I'm no expert or psychologist, but I'll share what I've learned from my own experiences. My past self was quite the wild child, but life had a way of bringing me back down to earth. 

Here are a few tips that helped me evolve into a better person:

1. Keep your inner circle small. I used to be an extrovert with a large circle of friends, but life taught me the importance of quality over quantity. A single friend who treats you well is worth more than a hundred acquaintances.

2. Know when to hold your tongue. I used to have a short fuse and would always be ready to fight. But as I grew older and took on more responsibilities, I learned that sometimes it's better to step back from a heated situation and avoid a fight. Saying sorry is not a sign of weakness, it's a sign of maturity.




3. Keep your mind occupied. During the Covid pandemic, I had too much free time and my mind started to wander into negative territory. So I made a conscious effort to keep myself busy and avoid overthinking.

4. Find your own form of meditation. For me, it's writing or listening to music. But everyone is different, so find what brings you peace and stick with it.

5. Bad days are just part of life. Don't overhype them. Every day has its ups and downs, so just keep grinding and pushing through. Don't let failure or success get to your head.

So, my friends, don't let the packaging of life fool you. Always see the material inside; is it worth it? Is it qualitative? And most importantly, don't settle for a life scenario; make it settle for you. It may seem twisted, but trust me, it will lead you to a more fulfilling life. And if all else fails, just remember that laughter is the best medicine. So, find joy in the little things and keep that passion for life burning bright! I could go on and share more life lessons, but I'll spare you the lecture. These are just some of the lessons I have learned from my own blue moon experiences. I hope they inspire you to reflect on your own life and find your own path to personal growth.

MY SANDWICH STORY

  LIFE IS A PARTY, AND YOU ARE THE PINATA. - Adulthood  Man, it's been a while since I last wrote anything. Today's topic? Relatable, I bet. Life's on fast forward, and my friend seems to be lapping everyone in this race. Scrolling through Instagram, I see their snapshots. I'm happy for them, but also, it feels damn, they've come so far. It feels like I'm stuck at the starting line they left behind. Then it hits me – this is adulthood. Suddenly, I get why that damn Ross from Friends freaked out over a stolen sandwich. We all start at the same place, but the racecourse itself changes. My friend might've reached their goal, but they're probably envious of someone else's achievement too. We're all just trying to walk a mile in someone else's shoes, right? Even writing this feels like a release. Every word type feels like a weight off my chest. This whole "adulting" thing is unsettling, and finding my groove will take time. Remember tha...

I mean, sure, I have my bad days, but then I remember what a cute smile I have - Chandler Bing

 An average individual overthinks roughly 60,000-80,000 thoughts per day. Fascinating fact isn't it. Which are healthy according to some well-known researchers.  So now you all might be wondering what's my scratch here. Well well, you know every coin has two faces so does overthinking. One of the good is, if the person notes down in his journal it would be one of the greatest invaluable assets he can ever have, sadly most of the people don't and are missing the charisma of it. So if you are reading my blog then do start writing your good overthinking, you will thank me later for it. and now the other side - bad, which is like an onion; Once you start overthinking our mind starts peeling off the layer one after the other leading to inescapable possibility which just makes us sad, like terrifically low it can make a person ushering to some unintentional mindless conclusion.  Which I am sure no one wants to experience in life but sadly at some point one confronts it. I am pr...

BAD DAYS LEAD TO HAPPY ENDING!!

Does Rejection poke you and affect you mentally? Let me share an incident that might have occurred to you; sometimes by seeing the success of your friend you feel quite low which causes your day-to-day action more depressing, more tainted, or chafing. Like finger pinpoints on you WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR LIFE? DON'T YOU HAVE THE POTENTIAL? AM I A FAILURE/LOSER? Well, the reason I can spotlight this is. Recently I faced this situation, and the impact that happened was that it shattered my day-to-day activity. The un-well brainiac made me more lethargic than ever before and by the end of the day, I would feel guilty as well as stressed and simply condemn myself for wasting another ravishing day. Let me elaborate a little. My summer break started and I had little to do in activity. So I started peeking for an internship to keep myself occupied, but as a fresher, you don't get opportunities knocking on your door. You had to be patient, which I was not, which led to me over-thi...
