Worry is a feeling of anxiousness that takes over when you think of the problems in your life, either the current ones, the ones from the past, or the probable ones. We all worry. Our degrees of worry may vary, but we all do. Will my alarm ring on time tomorrow morning? Will the maid bunk again? How will I …
Stash away that Self-doubt #MayTivation
Life is a glorious adventure. As we live through this adventure we experience varied phases which influence our emotions and reactions, shaping us through the process.

Use a Setback to set things right #MayTivation
Setback. Whether we like it or not, whether we work towards causing it or not, at some point in time we have all faced a setback in our lives. A setback could be professional or personal. A blow to the business or a blow on the personal front. A loss of money or a loss of a loved one. Whenever …
Things that don’t move forward should be left behind #MayTivation
While cleaning my bookshelf I chanced upon an old list nestled between the pages of one of my books. Though there was no date on the paper, it had yellowed considerably giving me an idea that the list was a decade old, if not more. On that paper, I listed out the things I wanted to do in the next …
On being nice #MayTivation
I am a people person. I like meeting people. I like getting to know people. I like people. When you meet people and get to know them you learn new things and widen your horizons.

Pray for People Who Wish you Ill #MayTivation
When I was growing up I had an Aunt who epitomized the word, ‘Nasty’. Acid-tongued, she ensured that every family gathering ended with at least one person, if not more, in tears.

The numbers on a price tag are almost always indicative of our response to the object. The higher the price tag the more awe, and at times want, …
Emotional Upgrade, anyone? #MayTivation
We live in a day and age where technology moves faster than we can catch up with it. Buy the latest gadget and before you even start using it fully an upgraded version of it hits the market. It’s the same with Apps, those saviors we can’t do without! Even your blog plugins and everything that we use is upgraded …
Of Expectations… #MayTivation
Expectations. We all have them from the people around us, just as they do. Family, friends, colleagues, and staff. Various kinds of expectations. There are material expectations and there are emotional ones. Moral ones, physical ones, justified ones, and unreal ones, the list is endless. I never believe people who say they have no expectations, as my experience with such …
