Discouraging someone is a thief's way of gaining courage

Appreciation is a wonderful thing : it makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well !

Its always easy to say, so why not this time let's not just say but do something. Why not take a step towards something good, let's Appreciate. Writing my first blog just came out randomly with a thought, and the thought was - "to share the thoughts". And I was ready to welcome all the gestures from people around the world. But when a friend of mine was unhappy with it, rather she was skeptical about it, and there again a thought took birth, and fortunately I am here again to share it with you all . Its not always about what you do and why you do, but how you feel doing it. People out there struggle for things which they genuinely don't feel doing it. So when you have time, why not do just one thing which will make you happy. And if its really the thing which gives you inner satisfaction, it doesn't really matter what anyone has to say. Now, opinions really matter, but which guides you in your path and leads you to a further step, not the one which holds and drags you down.

From what I have known, little appreciation is always good. You never know how unknowingly you are helping someone to live his/her dream. Encouragement is the best form of success booster, and all you need are just a bunch of words. So, encourage whoever you know, to showcase their creativity or their hidden talent, if not for anything else but maybe just to boost their confidence. You will never know if these little pieces of creativity can reach to excellence, if you never try. Break off the shield which is holding you back and follow your passion, and - Do It Now ! There are too many reasons for not doing it, just find one to do and you yourself will make a difference. It is not the mountain we conquer but ourselves. 

COVID-19

Excitement of 1st post - it should be something special, something attractive, communicative, etc etc - numerous thoughts piling up since I decided to write. But, in a moment a thought popped up - write what you feel and in the present scenario what else would be better than writing about self-awareness.

COVID-19 - The CORONA pandemic, a major concern of today, is spreading all over the world. This virus outbreak is so fatal that it is severely affecting the masses, our Nation at large, and creating a havoc. Today, our Nation is seeing lock-down, in order to curb this virus spread. The only support each individual can contribute is to stay self-quarantined and to take preventive measures - stay at home, wash your hands frequently with soap for atleast 20 seconds, avoid touching of hands over the face, wear mask and use sanitizer if moving out (only if necessary to go out), eat healthy to strengthen your immunity.

Amidst all of this going on, looking into a smaller positive perspective i.e. instead on pondering over the lock-down, let us now give a thought on what fruitful we can do -

•  Spend quality time with family
•  Watch TV / play indoor games
•  Video conferencing with people you almost din't get time to catch up with
•  Learn something new / develop a new skill
•  Read books
•  Cook, bake, draw, paint, sketch, sing, dance, write, read, etc
•  Spend time with yourself and improve (meditate)
•  And Sleeepppp...

So, take 21 days challenge on self-improvement and develop a good habit or a new skill. At the end of this pandemic, we all will  be safe and a better version of ourselves !
