Recently, I went somewhere- if you know, you know; and if you don’t, no worries, I’m going to tell my favorite things otherwise too.

  1. There are always some people who wish to live the life that you are currently slogging in. So be grateful for EACH and every day you live by. Before going there, I’m just overthinking about my life that I should have figured out everything by now. Relax guys, everything will be figured out eventually😎.
  2. Also, there is another set of people (very small) who you admire and want to be like them. It is rare to found that set of people who can check most of the things in your list which you want in life. In these days I have seen such people too🥸.
  3. There is something in there which makes me cry, laugh and the best I can. I have cried my heart out and laughed until my side ached, literally. These days make life more live-able🫶🏻.
  4. I have read human beings there instead of things. Some beings been twice my age but our conversations match like twins 👯.
  5. Seen some of knowledgeable human beings with sweet heart. Perfect combo, Isn’t it?🫂.
  6. Went with zero percent expectations and come with 100% satisfaction. This is the CORE of nucleus “Last 5 DAYS”🧚‍♀️.

Live-able Experience Experienced!!

Gist of complete blog (providing to save your time, but you can read explanation if you want to because why not!): Think and write the things/ events/ people you want at some stage of your life.

When we are at a stage in our life and our only motivation is to achieve a THING that can be good grades, our dream college, job or some other important event. After lot of hustle, we are able to achieve the thing and but don’t get fully satisfied with it because the importance or hype we given to it is – not of that worth.

Being in that thing, we realize that sometimes the outcomes/ scenarios we imagine are not the same as when we are dreaming of it. We get lost and have no idea, what to do next and it triggers the anxiety point. Most of the time, it’s not easy to find your next big thing or even side hustle while being caught up in that so called “Achieved Success” by people.

Scenario 1: Have you ever loved a show and watched all the seasons in just a few days and then get completely lost afterwards about life.?

Scenario 2: When we’re studying for an exam tomorrow and our mind filled up with a lot of fun activities and ideas we can do in that moment, but as soon as we are done with exam, nothing excites us.

To tackle such cases, have to write the ideas/ things/ anything that can be done in your life as soon as they come up in our mind. So, in advance think, plan and write the things you want in future maybe not the next thing but can be next to next thing or next to many next things. The things written at any stage, may be several years earlier can come to our mind at most unexpected time and space when it is the most required. SO it’s best to write it at that time.

It’s a tough exercise to figure out when we achieve something because we are completely consumed by it and can become anxious if we haven’t figured out the next thing. So, have things in place to move on to the next big thing in life.

Find Next BIG THING!!

Logs of emotions on reading:

  1. A good author can make you fall in love with reading. This year has been a journey for me to find that author.
  2. I’ve always loved carrying and reading books, but somewhere along the way, I became distracted and drifted away from them. However, the AUTHOR has brought me back to books once again in my life.
  3. Want to sleep on books, scribble in books, read while having breakfast and travelling.
  4. Take photos of pages/lines/drawing and keep them in my gallery and never return to them.
  5. Read the posters, signs, logos, stickers, tattoos and every possible readable thing.
  6. Desire to read the same book again and again.
  7. Dog ear >>> Bookmark (time, effort and money saving hack).
  8. Switch between books because I don’t feel like reading the one that I’m currently holding.
  9. LIST down the books which I’ve read throughout the year and update them in my site (so that I don’t get lost in my way to reading).

Reading Loading!!

I tried to log few thoughts on day of birth and here it goes..

Is the weather amazing just for me? Of course, it is!!

Feeling blessed!!

Birthdays on call are so much awesome rather than text!!

Am I too lucky today?!! When you least expect or when you don’t expect then things actually happen.

Is it coincidence to read this chapter on your BirthDay?! Photo of page

Never have I ever seen such a fast delivery from Amazon. I just ordered yesterday evening and got at 9:20am. Wow!!!

done some work stuff....

That lunch is just delicious!!

I completed the blog which is pending from several months and it is for my 13 year old version. I’m not able to finish the blog when I have plenty of time but when there is scarcity of time that is the best time when my mind just speed up

Feeling creative!!

I love you Mom and even more daddy and the mostest my dear brother

Desire To Do: I want to build myself a library

साथ-साथ चलते-चलते हाथ छूट जायेंगे ऐसी राहो में मिलो ना, बातें करते-करते रात बीत जाएगी ऐसी रातो में मिलो ना|

Excited to write in my new notebook

People>>>> Things : But when people are few then things which give you happiness or peace to soul. And it makes the most sense to me today. Grateful is the one word

Warm and relaxed vibes

I’m in AWE of myself.!!

Have quick dinner and then let’s create some crazy stuff.
