Are you doing what you like?

-
When you do something different people may not like it. A person, who read my book, asked me if I would conduct a motivational session using excerpt my first book 'Version One and a Half'? My ans was 'no'. My ans was followed by another question from her; So why write the book? My ans was: I don't write to preach, or to motivate someone, & i definitely don't write to please others. I write because I like it, I write because I feel like writing & I write because I love to share. I definitely don't intend to use my books to conduct motivational sessions. That put her off big time but here's my point. These days everybody seems to telling others what to do & how to be happy & successful. I don't intend to follow what other authors are doing, I intend to follow what I want to do. Is that bad? I don't think so. Doing something you love, & doing it the way you love is best you could do. I am doing it, are you?

So, what went wrong?  California Institute of Clinical Psychology Studied his case and found “what went wrong?”  They interviewed his friends and family and found that he had lost his job due to America’s economic crisis and was jobless for a long time.  He even reduced his previous salary amount but didn’t get any job.  He defaulted on his h

Don't struggle, just float

The best way to learn to swim is to not to struggle and let your body relax. The moment you relax & loosen up your body, it automatically starts floating. The more you struggle in the water, the more difficult it will be to stay afloat. In a sense, the continuous struggle increases the weight of your body, and your body will be pulled down. Staying calm helps one to control his/her body and stay afloat. Staying calm keeps the body weight down and your body above the surface of the water. :) Problems have the same effect on us. The more we struggle to solve a problem, the more frustration sets in. Struggle increases the adverse effects of a problem on our team and us or our family members tenfold. With frustration comes panic! If the situation is not contained on time, then the same effect will be transmitted to others & they will begin to panic as well. Imagine this happening in a family or an organisation or a team; it's scary... The best way to solve a prob
