Happiness

Sharing a Social media forward…

At Techno Pacific University, a speaker asked a woman among the audience:

“Does your husband keep you happy?”

The husband, sitting nearby, straightened up confidently. The reason was, his wife had never complained about him. He was happy.

However, the wife clearly said, “No, my husband doesn’t keep me happy.”

The husband was shocked, but the wife continued:

“My husband hasn’t kept me happy. He hasn’t made me happy. But I am happy. My happiness doesn’t depend on him. It’s up to me. Whether I am happy is a matter concerning myself.”

“Being happy at every stage of life is my decision. If I depend on others for my happiness, or on certain things, or certain moments, it means I am in big trouble.”

“Everything around us keeps changing. People, wealth, my body, temperature, my boss, pleasures, friends, my physical and mental health, all of it. It’s a long list.”

“No matter what happens, being happy is my decision. Whether I have a lot or a little, my happiness doesn’t diminish. Whether I go out or stay at home, whether I am poor or rich, my happiness doesn’t diminish.”

“I was happy before marriage, and I remain happy after. I am happy about myself because I am happy with myself.”

“I love my life not because it is easier than others’ lives, but because I have decided to be personally happy. I am responsible for my happiness.”

“When I hold this as a decision in my mind, I remove the burden from others to make me happy. This makes everyone’s life easier. That is why my life has been happy for so many years.”

The applause didn’t stop.

Don’t assign the responsibility of keeping you happy to others.

Whether it’s sunny or rainy, you are unwell, poor, injured, or unloved, do not give up the happiness within your mind.

As long as you respect yourself wholeheartedly, you will find happiness within yourself.

Happiness is within.

It’s not outside!

Manifest Abundance

Belief is an act of invoking wisdom.
Trust in waiting is true acceptance.
Allowing is an act giving in faith
Receiving in humility balances the ego.


Trust and believe in the infinite abundance
Allow yourself to give and receive
Let your intentions be guided in goodwill and grace.
Abundance manifests!

6 Tips on Improving Emotional Health

Emotional Health & Intelligence

Your emotions are your friends. Sometimes you find them at war with each other. They need your understanding. They are your supportive vents of expression to take the pressure off and make you sense the pleasure of life.

Create a beautiful life by improving your emotional health. And develop your emotional intelligence. It helps you identify where your strengths are and where you need to work on.

Emotional intelligence gives you a headstart in managing not just your emotions but also an ability to understand and to even influence anothers emotions.

In leadership roles this gives you an edge in managing people and teams

So how can you begin to improve your Emotional Intelligence?

Start by cultivating empathy for life. See things from anothers perspective. It will increase your understanding and help build strong relationships.

Work on your communication skills by practice of listening actively and respectfully. It can positively impact the way you are perceived.

Practice self awareness to become more mindful of how you feel and how your own emotions affect your thoughts and actions.

Acknowledge stress and balance it well by being active by regularly walking or picking a sport, or even dancing.

Think positively about life by inculcating a positive attitude.

At the same time allow your self to seek feedback to understand where you are doing fine and how to improve further.

Emotions are part of being human. Working on your emotional health and developing your emotional intelligence can be a game changing skill in life.

Sustain yourself

How much of you do you give in any relationship?

Today I am sharing a thought Provoker. This came as a social media forward. But it was thought worthy and I do have a few questions as well.

Speaking of relationships, have you felt drained out beyond compare?

Instead of feeling energetic after an interaction or a conversation, have you felt like when will it end?

When was the last time you felt a little too empty?

Do you stop giving, if you feel it is an unequal relationship and you feel pulled from all directions or due to habit or situation you continue to give as you do?

If you are a giver by nature, can you actually stop yourself at all?

It’s truly important to acknowledge your emotions and feelings. It helps to know your energy shifts.

A Stringed Existence

There is a lot of inextricable strings of emotions linked to relationships but if you are constantly feeling drained out and exhausted when with certain people, perhaps you need to check if you have over invested yourself. Be it in career as a workaholic or in family where your sense of self is feeling lost.

You have one life & it is your life…

Pause and take a breather and set yourself back on course.

While there are many kinds of people you meet. And it is really OK to be extra helpful, and give the best you can. In fact it energizes abundance to manifest in life… For when you give from a spring well of kindness, nature sets in motion, a share of kindness back to you in its own time.

Yet like many are energy givers, there are many energy takers. Often unknown to themselves they behave in a way that saps anothers energy when they are around you.

Do remember who ever you are with… Giving more or less will not have value. For less is not fulfilling and more is just excess and will never be utilised. But will certainly tilt your balance for sure.

In your actions too, exercise this wisdom and you will find yourself in a good space.

And most of all…

Choose your tribe well. It makes all the difference.

Life

All of creation has a purpose to its being.

It charts its course towards it.

If we are able to understand the reason for life is to be…

As it is meant to be
We will be more tolerant and inclusive
We will think before we speak
We will choose to see the good and nurture the good.
What we choose to notice life presents itself in many ways
As the way we choose to see the world
The world mirrors itself to us.

See the world with wonder and awe
Choose to respect and be responsible
Cultivate a sense of respect gratitude.
For the infinite abundance called life!

Every bit matters

According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire. Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire!
Whatever happened, he wouldn’t stop. Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior.
“What are you doing, hummingbird?” he asked.
“I am going to the lake,” he answered, “I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it.” The jaguar laughed. ‘Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?’
‘No,’ said the hummingbird, ‘I know I can’t. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can’t put out the fire, but I must do my part.’
At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the bird and its devotion to the forest, miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire.
The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, “Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part.”
“You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.’”


If someone asks your help remember this story.

A lovely read I simply had to share. I am doing my bit…

Every bit matters!

Cultivate Happiness

If only happiness can be summed up…

How easy it would seem!

But happiness can be elusive

When summoned it is often fleeting

But being able to take stock of your being

Will keep you aware

Of how much happiness is an inside job…

Wisdom of the Way

Learn the form, but seek the formless. Hear the soundless. Learn it all, then forget it all.Learn The Way, then find your own way.

The silent monk from the Forbidden kingdom

I love this wisdom of The Way

In trying to control

You realize in time

You never can have it all

In fact the more you try to do

You realize how unbalanced you are.

To find balance

You meet stillness in the listening

For it vibrates it’s own music.

Hear in silence and you sense it.

You don’t need to try too hard

What is meant to be found appears.

You don’t need to overstretch

You simply need to ease in to connect deeply.

And you will begin
To unbecome

For your soul

On Creativity

Photo by cottonbro on Pexels.com

Creativity flourishes in the freedom
To do, to be, to voice, to express
Without fear or favour
And yet to create is a responsiblity.

To hold the pieces together.
To give meaning to expression
As it makes thoughts tangible
It holds answers to questions.

In hope for innovations in posterity
Of solutions in probability
In the knowing every facet of creativity
Is just as unique as its creator.

Sensing peace

Imagining peace
Soothing the spirit
Calming the senses
A river of joy flows through
In the sweet sounds of music
Memories of many melodious moments
Fleeting by in the harmony of the flow…

Coaching tips

As a life coach my experiences over the years with my clients comes with many learnings. As each life is unique and so are their circumstances. To get any further into coaching it’s important to understand where they are and for them to acknowledge it

Creating a safe space is a prerequisite.

There is a simple yet
empowering and activity that
can be used… Its called ‘What
makes my heart sing?
It is a powerful exploration
into what brings them joy and
fulfilment, it helps create safe
and supportive and active
listening space by building
trust
It’s quite simple to facilitate
Begin with introduction to
explain the activity. Ask them
to reflect on life moments, they
felt in a flow state or felt truly
alive_and iovful.


Then as a life coach you help
facilitate how these
experiences are interconnected
to their values and discuss
how they can begin to
incorporate more of this into
their lives
And finally also help them
create an action plan towards
the same.
