Hello dear reader, I hope September has been good for you so far. Today I want to share about a book I recently read- The 80/20 Principle. It's amazing how a simple concept like this can really help us change and simplify our lives. I believe everybody should know about this principle and apply it in their lives to live more simply and intentionally. If you’re feeling overwhelmed with work and your life is a mess, you don’t know how to manage your time, or you don’t know where to put your...

Hello Dear reader, Happy Monday! You are receiving this email as a part of my Weekly Mindful Monday Newsletter series. As the end of the year is approaching, I want us to end the year in a truly restful and relaxed manner. Living in the city and in this increasingly connected and fast paced world, we have forgotten the art of true rest. I say true rest because the rest that we normally do isn’t truly rest. It’s a distraction or simply just half-rest. And I know it’s funny how we have to learn...

Hello dear reader, Happy Monday! You are receiving this email as a part of my 'Mindful Monday Newsletter' Today I want to share about Talent Vs. Hardwork Vs. Audacity. This has been on my mind for quite some time and I wanted to share my thoughts about it. When it comes to talent, we think that this world is divided into two- talented and non-talented people. You are either talented or you’re not. And if you’re not, there’s nothing much you can do about it. So we go on with our lives. We grow...

Hello dear reader, You are receiving this email as a part of my 'Mindful Monday Newsletter' Today I just to start by saying, "Anything is possible because you are alive" I am telling myself the same, “Anything is possible because I am alive” But I know many of us have stopped feeling hopeful about life and how our life can be. Sometimes we miss the point of being alive, and we ask ourselves, “Is this all?” “Is this how my life has come up to?” “Is this how my life is going be?” We fail to be...

Hello dear reader, Happy Monday Today’s newsletter is on the magic of "I don’t know" So many of us have a negative relationship with this word. There are too many of us who fear starting something new because of this word called “I don’t know” Some of us even totally dismiss the idea of doing something we wish we could do, deep down, thinking that we don’t know how to do it. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard people tell me, “Even I want to start a blog, but I don’t know anything...

Hello dear reader, How have you been doing this June? Sorry for not showing up these past two weeks. Those who emailed me asking for my newsletter and asking me how I am doing, thank you.

It is to give you hope,...
