Power Of Voice.....

Can u imagine life without a voice? Can u imagine living with only actions and no words? With a permanent translator or someone who understands your actions. We take our voice for granted u knows. We speak anything. We hurt so many people with our rude and cruel words. We don’t value our voice. We don’t value the gift of voice.
What would we do without our voice I wonder? How would we express ourselves for everyone to understand? How would one say what they feel without saying it?
It’s a shame how we don’t value our gift. We should be more careful with what we say. Cause once it is out u cannot retract your statements no matter how it might hurt someone else. But yet we don’t understand the value of our voice. Why is it so that we know we should think twice before we speak and yet we don’t? Why is it so difficult for us to be nice and polite to others?
I sometimes feel we let emotions take over us rather than us controlling them they control us. I know it’s difficult to be cool, calm and collected at all times but seriously how many of us have consciously tried to do so.
Life ain't about how much u say and don’t say, its about how much u say and how much of an impact its had on the other person. And I am talking about the good impact. Everything we do and say has an impact on other human beings. God wont ask u how much money u made or what all did u buy he will ask u what did u do for others. How many people did u hurt? How many people are happy cause of you? And how many people are not happy with u.
One word can hurt someone or can make someone smile. Can u believe the power of words? Ask someone who doesn’t have it. Don’t misuse this power cause u are blessed with it. Make someone smile make someone happy all it takes is a voice. A nice kind polite voice. How difficult is it to do that? Next time u hurl an abuse at someone think about it and tell yourself would I like to be abused? Remember one must always put themselves in the other person’s shoes to see how it feels and then act upon it.
Lets work on it together. Lets appreciate people everyday. Lets make people smile everyday. Lets make sure life is as good as u can make it for everyone around u and yourself. I will guarantee you this. Every time you do this and you will feel and will be happier. You will appreciate the power of voice. Remember everyone doesn’t have it so the ones who do please do use it wisely and for a good cause.

Finger Pointing

Life is easier when u can point fingers at others. Don’t u think so. It means u don’t have to take the fall even though it might be your mistake altogether. All u have to do is pass the buck and let the other person take the fall. Pretty easy aint it.
What makes us do that? what makes us shy away from taking up the responsibility? Is it that we never like admitting our mistakes? Is it that our ego is too huge to let it down? Or is it that we just don’t want to look bad in front of people? Can upbringing play an important part in this attitude of ours? Do our teachers play an important part as well? Our friends, relatives everyone play a part in this.
When we were young and we used to fall off our cycles while learning people used to ridicule us, our friends laugh at us and sometimes our parent discourage us by saying you cant do anything right.
Also at home when family gets in a quarrel u will see finger pointing blame being put on each other etc. that too develops our thinking our mental state. If people who influence u cannot accept mistakes what makes them think u will. Right from an early age if u are not taught to take responsibility for your actions and acceptance of your mistakes it will lead make u point fingers having excuses for everything and so on.
Everything starts at the beginning. One has got to learn to be fearless to be able to accept their mistakes without the fear of being ridiculed. Its important cause once u grow older u will see how this affects your life, your relationships and your business. Everything and everyone around us influences us. So when u start doing things right u are influencing everything and everyone around you as well. U got the power to make someone think everyone does remember that.
Someone once told me responsibility is power. And so it is. Don’t ridicule someone cause he/she made a mistake. Rather applaud to the fact that the person admitted to the mistake which shows a strong character in itself.
Lead by example and people will follow. Take responsibility for all that u do. Cause in the end its about doing the right thing. Encourage honesty and it shall help u a great deal. According to me finger pointing is cowardly. Be honest to yourself.

A Bad Day....

We all have our bad days. Wait when does your day go bad. I mean when is it that think your day is bad. When u miss your train, when things don’t go according to your wishes, when someone spills coffee on you or is it when someone screams at you.
Small things affect our day, our mood and affect us. Yesterday I thought I was having a bad day cause things were not going according to plan. Just when my mind wandered off into negativity I was like nah my day isn’t that bad u know. People have days, which are by far worse than mine. And I have seen that myself.
Don’t u think we let too many things get to us. Too many things to affect us and screw up our mood. Cant we take it all in our stride and just let it be.
Why is it so difficult for us to ignore the small things and look at the bigger picture?
I will tell u what is a bad day. Tell my friend what is a bad day. Her mom was laughing n joking around 2 days before she got diagnosed with pneumonia and expired a day later.
Tell my manager what is a bad day. His wife was discharged from the hospital and a healthy chit was given to her and that very night she vomited blood and expired. Explain the bad day to his 3 yr old daughter who kept asking her dad about her mom’s whereabouts.
Tell my bhabhi what is a bad day. She was out shopping with her sister in law the previous day and then found her dead the next morning.
Now that’s what I call things not going according to plan. That’s what a bad day is all about. And we get peeved off about missing a train and someone not listening to us or we not getting through someone’s phone etc.
Don’t ever feel like life is a burden. Remember it’s really short. Enjoy everyday. Smile everyday. No day is as bad as u make it. We make a good day look bad at times. And a bad day seem worse.
This is life..

Smile..Its Free Of Cost....

What is free of cost, easy to do, less work and very pleasing? It takes 2 muscles to do it as well. Just 2. It’s a smile. Why is it so difficult to smile? Why don’t we smile more often? I mean what are we so angry or sad about. It’s strange to see the ones who have everything are the ones who smile the least. Is it that we can never be satisfied or it is that we just cannot bring ourselves to smile? Sometimes we seem to worry too much into the future. We think that if we are happy today we must be cautious cause tomorrow we might not be happy for the very reasons we are. I don’t get the logic cause if we don’t enjoy the moment now thinking about the tomorrow that we know nothing about what makes us think that tomorrow we might not think about day after and so on. There is also another reason for this and it “greed”.
When we get one thing right we want another. For example when u buy yourself a bicycle u are happy but then wish to be happier with a car then a plane and so on. We never enjoy the moment cause we keep thinking of the next big achievement.
I even don’t get the logic of not smiling at someone on the road when u walking or in the train or on a bus. Why can’t we smile? What’s the harm? It’s not affecting us in any way? I mean why not. A smile can change so much. U know if a person is depressed or sad it just takes a smile to lighten up their day. That’s all it takes a smile. And we cant even do that. Life may have a lot of hardships it may not always be easy but a human being who can smile through all of that is the ultimate achievement.
We keep telling ourselves we are very strong emotionally n all but what is strength when u can’t smile during the hardest of times.
With life being the way it is today lets pledge to smile when we look at someone. Lets not shy away from smiling. Lets make this a better place by spreading smiles and laughter around. Lets learn to make people smile when they want to cry most.
Think about it. Make it a point to smile at 10 strangers every week and hopefully it will become a habit over a period of time. That’s life for u.

Looks Do Matter....

You often here one saying looks don’t matter to them and all. I think its all a load of crap. Looks do matter. Yes they may not be the ultimate criteria but yes they do matter. Anyone who tells that looks don’t matter they would be lying. Even names matter they really do. I know it sounds kind of stupid but they really do.
I will give u an example I am sorry if I am hurting anyone with this name or has an association with someone of this name. If one were to go online and not seen each other and were chatting imagine this. A guy would be chatting to 2 different girls. One is named Priyanka and the other Vijaylakshmi. Now the guy hasn’t seen either of them but yet he would be more inclined to talk to Priyanka than to Vijaylakshmi. No matter who is a better person but a visual image is made of they would be just from the names. I don’t know how many of your’ll have done this or seen someone doing this but I have done this myself I do feel horrible about it but it has happened to me. Now the question is why do we do this I mean why does it happen? What makes us do that? I have got no answers even though I have to an extent got myself to stop doing that ad start being a lot more open and non-judgemental of people around me with different names.
The same thing goes for looks. I mean 2 different people presenting the same project in front of a board of directors. It will easier for the handsome/hot looking guy/girl to get his/her proposal accepted than the other person. The packetting is always important. It’s not the substance inside that’s important. We always look at what attracts our eyes. I don’t know how many people would agree with me but it’s the fact of life. The packaging is a lot more important than what’s there on the inside. We always want to believe what we see is what really is. Always want everything on hand rather than searching for it. Its human nature. How many of us have made an effort to look beyond the way a person looks?
Sometimes when u tend to look at the person and are only concerned about the looks think about this would u want to be judged only on your looks?
Skin decays, u wont look the same after many many years. Being beautiful is to have a beautiful heart and soul and not just a beautiful face or body..
Think about it…
