The Way You Make Me Feel

The way we make people feel – is a reflection of who we are. What a statement. How is that connection established? Let’s look at some examples :

1. When you are sad or gloomy, does it have an effect on people around it? Would you like it to? Bcoz maybe they had nothing to do with its cause. So why should they suffer??
2. When you are too happy or on the top of the world, are people forced to hide their true feelings so as to get along with you? Are those missed opportunities? Could it have led to an empathetic relationship getting formed??

So what do you do? Do you suppress your feelings when you meet others? Will that work? Is it the right thing to do? Are you making the right decision?

Let’s look at a different situation. What happens when you’re balanced while meeting others? Are you able to listen better? Are you able to focus on their feelings and thoughts? Are u able to give? Are you able to make deposits? IS THAT INTERACTION MORE ABOUT THEM THAN ABOUT YOU??

The trick is not to suppress, rather to handle maturely. Don’t we do it when the situation demands? Then why can’t we create a case to do it EVERY TIME SOMEONE COMES TO US.

The Process Of Success

When did you last learn about the ‘PROCESS OF SUCCESS’ ? 

Do we realise that there is something common with all the people who succeed in life? That they all go through some phases in their success journey.

When they start, it’s usually seen as something different from the normal or a different approach altogether. They don’t have too many supporters for sure. Rather, they have people laughing on them. This is called the HAHA PHASE.

Next is the SILENT PHASE. This occurs when they start getting some early success. Or, when they ignore people’s reactions and continue doing their thing with increased conviction.

Finally, they start seeing big success. Their efforts start bearing fruits. This is when people tell them – ‘We always knew you would do it’!! Either the people start emulating them or they eat a humble pie. And it leads to the SUCCESS PHASE.

Unless you garner the courage to get through the HAHA PHASE, you’ll never really succeed. Or you’ll quit because you can’t bear people’s awkward reactions. We are so conditioned for seeking public approval for almost everything we do, that we find it difficult to break through the mental conditioning and create a space for ourselves.

When someone reaches out to us to help us create that personal space and feel comfortable in the same, instead of giving in to fear, we should try and hold their hand and take their help. Thankfully, there are still well meaning people in this world who can help us to grow and realise our true potential.

ASSUME = ASS + U + ME

Isn’t it human nature to assume?


We all tend to draw conclusions with limited data. Specifically when our insecurities are high, when we allow fears and doubts to dominate our thinking. When we are not so sure of making logical deductions, we tend to make some emotional assumptions about what we observe. This can lead to lost relationships and weak self esteem about being able to keep friends and loved ones.

1. The first step is to identify that ‘we’ have an issue.
2. Second is to re establish the need for meaningful and fulfilling relationships in our lives. It is these that give us a purpose to shoot big for.
3. Third is to learn to replace blame with benefit of doubt. Easier said than done…
4. Next, we need to reach out to the other person to check on their intentions and hidden agendas, if any. Need to give them an impartial listening and space to speak their minds.
5. Finally, we need to choose to believe them. Unless we make this choice, we are automatically choosing to let the relationship go. We become as responsible for the mess as the other person.
