How to Deal with Negativity and Rejection in Daily Life?

Let’s face it, we all feel low once in a while. But what really makes the difference is a way we deal with it. A lot of people have different coping mechanisms. Some people express their angst through a creative medium like writing or playing an instrument. Some people just let it build inside till it comes out one day and things get real messy and difficult. This can be overcome by having a balanced mind and a relaxed attitude towards life.

7 Troubling Habits of Unhappy People

The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.

- Benjamin Franklin

According to science, happiness is just a state of mind. But I believe that what we do in our daily lives, our daily habits, our perspectives have a way of influencing our happiness or sadness. I find that unhappiness, like smoking, or any contagious disease has a way to spread among the people you live with. For example, in a family, when a mother goes through a rough patch in her life, her sadness and gloominess don't really give out positive vibes to her husband and children.

Taking Too Many Selfies? You are probably suffering from 'Selfitis'

From the high and mighty to the common man, everyone is fond of clicking selfies- be it with their favorite stars, best friends, families, holidays, food parties, gyms and every other possible context which can be captured in a click. From the famous Oscar selfie to Pope to Obama to NaMo, it is the ‘new rage’, the ‘new cool quotient’.

Friendship Bond or Religion Beliefs: What Matters More?

Today I am here to talk about something which is considered a very sensitive topic. Not just the mainstream discussion, also the small aspects of are deliberately ignored. The topic is such that everytime a discussion is initiated, it turns into a heating argument​. But, today I will request the readers to treat this as any general topic and avoid mocking me for raising this subject.

We are living in a technologically driven world. Living a happy and stress-free life in today’s world is one of the most challenging things.

Why Beauty is the Greatest Deceiver in Rational Thought

When you see a person before you, what is the first thing that you notice? Well honestly, the first thing you will notice would be a person. Then the details come into the picture. You notice from his/ her features the gender. Then you notice whether the person is noticeably attractive, and if so, are there signs of him/ her being attracted to you. Your eyes will often also digress to notice the colour of his/ her skin, the tell-tale signs of his/her religion, the labels pronouncing his/her status and lot of other things that can be discerned just by appearance.

Why You Should Never Depend On Anyone But Yourself

It's obvious that we all have gone through major heartbreaks. I know, we all carry the pain in our hearts and bright smiles on our faces, just to avoid the void question "are you fine?"

OMG!! It's Monday Again?? Dear God, please make it Friday

I have to be alone very often. I'd be quite happy if I spent from Saturday night until Monday morning alone in my apartment. That's how I refuel.

– Audrey Hepburn

Ah! Monday blues. Well… the Sunday ends too soon. Monday starts, I literally snail to work. The time passes slowly on Mondays. It seems the day is about to end, but when I look up to see the clock; it is just 3 o’ clock in the afternoon! Yet 5 hours to go home! But, experience the sheer happiness when the day finally comes to an end. It is a feeling of accomplishment, ‘Yes! We survived Monday!’.

What Your Fear of Loneliness Is Really About

Like a coin has two sides, being lonely also has a flip side. Sometimes it is good to stay alone and spend some time with oneself rather than being always surrounded by friends. Has it never happened that when one is in a room full of people, he feels lonely?

One Habit We All Need To Change

Oh no! Wait, reader! Before you pick up the ball and run with it (and I am labeled as the ‘international habits hater’, I humbly beg you to give me a chance. I am not questioning the worth of habits. And I completely believe Jack Hodge when he says, “Habits are important. Up to 90 percent of our everyday behaviour is based on habit. Nearly all of what we do each day, every day, is simply habit. ” All I am (trying) to say is that just that it is essential to have certain life-making habits (in order to succeed), it is absolutely essential to kill some life-breaking habits (or they will trap us into a whirlpool of misery). So, let’s come to this point of habits that are holding us down.

3 Ways To Keep Yourself Sane

Oh yes. You read that right. In a world that claims that “everybody in the society is as deranged as you are”, I am choosing to write an article on how to keep yourself sane. And yes, I would not disagree with Susan Sontag’s words stating, “Sanity is a cozy lie.”

3 Childhood Habits That Shouldn’t Grow Out of You

Remember that time when (ages ago) we were going through a phase called childhood? No troubles (except how to eat the chocolate when mom isn’t looking), no tensions (except ‘Will I be able to wake up before Tom and Jerry starts?), no broken relationships (except that fight over who was taller) and only smiles? So, let’s go back to this time and see what precious things we had then that we don’t have (but need) now. Because, as Tom Stoppard says, “If you carry your childhood with you, you never become old.”

How to Connect With Our Inner Self

To love one’s own self is extremely important. And spending time with your Lone Self nurtures the bond between your mind, body, heart and soul. But it is not easy for everyone to go out and enjoy the moment with ourselves and with no one else. For many of us, it is a rather a hard thing to do, just this thing, especially this.

Study finds "Tech Addiction" is similar to Drug Cravings

‘Phones, iPads, everywhere, And all the relationships did sink,
Phones, iPads, everywhere, None can be seen anywhere’

Technology has changed our social behavior drastically. We are not concerned about connecting with people in person, but it has become a lot easier for us to connect virtually, where anyone can put on any identity of their choice. The amusing part is, we accept it as it is, without any Ifs and Buts! It is interesting to know how we have a lot to say to each other on text messages, but nothing when we meet the individual in person.

3 Things You Should Never Apologize For

Most of you must have read (or heard) the saying, “Apologizing doesn’t always mean you’re wrong and the other person is right. It means you value your relationship more than you.” There are some lines, however, that must not be crossed and some apologies that are better left unsaid. So, before you go down on your knees, with tears on your cheeks, cracks in your heart and apologies in your eyes, read these words.
