Self-Love & all that.

One more blog that starts with being grateful to readers who remind me to write. I can never thank you all enough. You guys are amazing. 😀😉

The time I initially took to blogging, it used to make me wonder why bloggers don’t write frequently.!?

But as they say, “You won’t know the real deal unless you deal with it in real.”

That is what I understand now, when people remind me that I haven’t written for a while. Because when you get caught up in the grind, You simply get caught into it. There hardly remains any way out.

There are times, when you feel good about (ACTUALLY) falling sick and staying at home for a while. (I genuinely feel we need to fall sick once in a while to atleast let our bodies rest. Not encouraging unhealthy habits here, but just for the sake of calming our minds and resting our bodies)

All the self- love articles and quotes that I have been reading for years, have finally started making sense to me now. There is no worthy gift that you can give yourself than taking care of your ownself, your minds and your well-being. The more you start focusing on yourself , the more things start falling in place.

Our minds remain constantly distracted with one or the other thing. Be it the glam outfit some influencer wore or the fancy restaurant someone dined at or thousands of thoughts to lead you to chaos. Leaving too less or almost no time to look at yourself and your own happiness.

Jotting down few things that you can start practicing and implementing into your lives, If at all you ever feel getting caught up in the grind.

1) Cut of toxic people and habits-

   First and foremost thing to do on the list. Probably the most  difficult one too. But once this is done, it clears off major negative space in your lives. Mark people who never encourage you on doing good, the ones who never compliment how muchever you excel, the ones who will only remember you when they need something, the ones who pretend to be your friends but take undue advantage of your goodness, the ones who never really check up on you unless you are going to be of help to them.

Think, Analyse, Slowly & steadily distance yourself from them.

2) Be shameless-

Letting go of certain things, people and habits needs you to be a bit shameless. Old things might have been close to your heart but remember they weren’t as good for your mind. And that is why you choose to let them go, in the first place. So do not worry about what others will say.

3) Talk to yourself –

Talking to yourself is considered as a definite sign of Intelligence.

Simply DO more of what makes you Intelligent!

4) Find what you love-

In the constant rush of working lives, waiting for weekends and dreading Mondays, find something that you love to do. Something that brings you joy and inner peace. It could be anything such as a forgotten hobby, things you used to love before you took up your job, something you have always dreamt of doing but could not; start doing it now. Remember, there’s always time to START off.

5) Get off social networks-

One damn thing that surely EATS up our time and we don’t even realise how. Not only that, but also makes us crib about how bad and boring our lives are when all we do is compare them with people on the screen of our phones. What we often forget is, nobody updates their bad days and low phase on social networks. So lets not get drown into the whirlwind that these social sites choose to show us.

You could do yourself a favour and switch off from social networks for atleast few days. Trust me, you will not only be left with more time at your disposal but would also find yourself at peace.

No wonder, I am still in the trial phase of these. But I have always been a person who tries to keep improving my ownself. 

Afterall, you have be the first person whom you fall in love with every single day.

Make sure it’s the best version of YOU.
