Have you ever noticed when some people walk into a room, the energy level of that room goes up a couple of notches? Sometimes a person’s sunny personality brightens even the gloomiest person’s mood. I know a few people like that. They bring their own sunshine, and have an irresistible zest for life. Moreover, I…

Yelling Less : The Journey Within – by Shailaja Vishwanath

Today, I am very happy to welcome a very dear friend, Shailaja, to my space. I came across her parenting blog a couple of month’s back, and the first thing that caught my attention was the Yelling Less counter on the sidebar. It read over 150+ yell free days at that point. 150+ days since…

Why It’s Important to Identify Your X-Factor For Success

X-Factor is essentially considered to be an unknown but vital quality for achieving success. Interviewers and judges often speak of an ‘X- Factor’ when they consider multiple candidates for a single open position, or when they are deciding the winner of a contest. In the above context, the term stands for a certain undefinable quality…

An Antidote for Our Worries

Let me start off this post by saying that I don’t intend to preach on the futility of worrying, as I have met very FEW people who worry MORE than me. I am not sure if I have always been this way but certainly have been a major worry-wart after I had my son. I…

How Much Power Do Our Thoughts Have?

Do you feel that your thoughts come in response to what is happening around you, and what you observe? I certainly used to feel so. But then I came across a book called The Secret. It introduced (to me) a concept called as Law of Attraction, which stated that we attract what we think. This…

Keeping it Simple

I once read somewhere that the best proof of someone’s intelligence is their ability to simplify the complex. The people who are confident in their knowledge do not hesitate to share it with others in a way that is easily understood. Whereas, people who attempt to talk over people’s heads through the use of overly…

All we need is a Reason to Succeed

Have you noticed that when we have a strong reason for doing something, we figure out how to get it done. The HOW’s can be figured out as long as the WHY is in place. But many a times we focus more on the HOW’s – How do I do this? How can I do…

Do Not Quit. You might be Three Feet from Gold.

It doesn’t matter what we do in our lives, there will be times when things don’t go according to our plan. We might feel like everything is going against us, and we simply cannot succeed against the odds. It is precisely at these times that we need to persist through the dark tunnel, until we…
