Change ur life ...revisit

Probably no other complaint is voiced more often than not having enough time …. Same thing even I used to say “I don’t have time to pursue my dreams or to even know what my dreams are. I don’t have time for me, for my family and friends. I don't have time to post in my blog. Basically, I don’t have time to live my life.”
If someone ask me hey!!howz life going ? The moment they ask me that I used to start cribbing. Work is too hectic. I don’t have time for anything.


One day in morning, I was thinking about this and decided it’s upon me to how I manage my time and plan my work.

Passion is the ultimate time management tool for two reasons.
First, when I am doing what I love to do, who cares about time? When I am with someone special or listening to a great piece of music, or painting or volunteering, doesn’t time just fly by? Second, when you are doing what you love it often gets done faster. The way we spend our time is the way we spend our lives. Can you slow down enough to get “in synch” with life, nature, and most importantly, yourself? Tune in to your rhythm and natural pulse.

I decided to take off my watch and give myself a day off. Eat when I'm hungry and sleep when I'm tired so that I can discover who I am, what I need and what works best for me. Make a date with myself, every day if possible. Even if for only a half hour, carving out time for me is a great act of generosity.

Whether we like it or not, the clock keeps ticking so live fully, every single second of every single day. Learn the true joy of doing less and having more as you experience each day as priceless. Fill your life with as many precious moments and experiences of joy and passion as you humanly can. When you “catch yourself in the act” of doing something that doesn’t serve you, you can choose to change it and when it’s a repeating pattern, you can literally change your life.

'Live Life on your own terms" and enjoy every moment of it.

Independence day and my memories related ..

"Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we will redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. At the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, India will awake to life and freedom. A moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance.... We end today a period of ill fortune, and India discovers herself again."
- Jawaharlal Nehru (Speech on Indian Independence Day, 1947)


The Independence Day of any country is a moment of . On this special occasion, we pay our tributes are paid to the freedom fighters who sacrificed their lives and fought to free their motherland from the clutches - British.

We Indians will be cribing all the time about smething or other ... saying our India will never improve n vl remain same; but when its August n January time, vl all be become patriotic (saying this I didn't mean to say we are not patriotic what i meant was we vl become more patritioc...) Patriotic movies will be released this time of the year..All the channels will be playing patriotic songs..and movies.
I have a some wonderful memories of my Grandma and Grandpa's associated with Independence day. My grandpa is a freedom fighter. He had been to jail during the Quit India freedom movement.


Everyone says that he was a very disciplined man.. he was actually a doctor by profession..he used to go in bicycle and treat the ppl in the surrounding villages itseems. My grandppa had got wonderful photos of the Gandhi, Nehru, Tagore and many more snaps of freedom fighters. Sometime i vl plan to take the photo out of the old frame and scan it and upload here. On Independence day, my grandma used to do pooja to Gandhi and Nehru photo and used to make sweet and hoist a small flag in our garden . These are some wonderful memories of my life..I really admire him and we all miss him a lot..I wish my Grandppa was there to read this.. :(
Freedom means so much to all individuals. I am very thankful to all our freedom fighters who fought for our independence. We should be glad to be born in country like India. I wish all of you a happy Independence day!!Make use of your freedom to improve the country one way or the other.
