Calm down and don't worry.

We've all been there at some point in our lives where the world seems to be going upside down. Those 24 hours seem to pass in no time but the never ending work does nothing but builds up your temper and tests your patience.

So here I am, to share some tips, which have helped me survive such long hectic days like a pro :

1) Take A Deep Breath :

Surely you are not expected to be a regular meditator when you have piles and piles of work to finish. But surely, sitting silently, taking deep breaths and liberating yourself of all the anxiety for at least 10 minutes once in a while will help you in exerting yourself for the next few hours of constant working.
Life is ten percent what you experience and ninety percent how you respond to it.     ~ Dorothy M. Neddermeyer

2) Prepare A Checklist Or Mindmap :

Wait! Don't leave! Reading this clichè tip might be a major turnoff but trust me on this, writing a to-do list gives the same feeling of satisfaction as completing them does. Life suddenly feels more organized and not haywire anymore. Also, remember these tips are from a major procrastinator so you can rely on this article. 

3) Prepare yourself for the day the night before :

Make sure you have enough sleep and don't end up staying up late at night even if it means cancelling your plan to watch the last episode of your favourite web series.

4) Take help from loved ones when needed :

It could be the urge to be self-dependent or merely concern or apprehension about bothering somebody -- whatever the reason might be but it's true that sometimes some of us become a bit hesitant in taking help from our parents, siblings or friends. But you should know that they are always there to become a helping hand in your hour of need.

5) Know that it's your choice if you want to make the day daunting or delightful :

Jamming to some good music, or something as simple as taking a nap for 20-25 minutes are some effective ways through which you can turn a seemingly dreadful day to a much better and relaxing one.
Also, even if this seems to be the most impractical thing ever but do not use social media -- the major reason for this being that you have no time to like posts of cute pups or celebrities.

Smile, be confident, feel gratitude and life will be simple like never before

Stay tuned for the next article
And make sure you keep up with the blogs coming your way!
Until then,
See ya!

What I Learned from taking a break from Instagram

By

Having used the app for so long had made me immersed in this "virtual facade" for so long that I had forgotten to draw the difference between real life and social media and so getting out of the app for a while really helped me in gaining clarity. Recently, I reinstalled instagram since after a very long time I had the time to spend just scrolling by posts. But as I opened the app, I realized a lot of things about myself and the nature of social media in general. Firstly, the social media break made me lose interest in the lives of those people who didn't really matter to me in real life. Now this might seem absurd at first since that should not be happening anyway. Why would I have any interest in people whom I barely know? But Instagram makes you want to know more about them. All that everyone is doing is glamourising their lives in the best ways possible by putting the most aesthetic filters, the sassiest captions and the most inside jokes possible. Having used the ap...

How To Break the Cycle of Demotivation #Day9

Let's get real about this - nobody feels cheerful and motivated to work all the time. In fact, many a times we fall into the loop of putting off work until the last day ending up with a huge pile of things to finish and then getting demotivated by the amount of work we have. You will find hundreds of advices and search results on "How to Stay Organized at Work". In fact even I did a similar article a while ago on how to get through a hectic day. But nobody tells us how to get out of this vicious loop of procrastinating until the very last minute possible and then feeling hopeless. So here are a few tips to get yourself in schedule back again: (1) Create a time table for yourself THE RIGHT WAY : I can nearly assure that you must have been told this once in your life - to create a time table, a to-do list, maintaining a diary, etc etc. However, one thing I have definitely learnt the hard way is that you need to make sure that your time table must be created in such a wa...

The Power of a Conversation

While silence may be golden in certain situations, it is also very true that conversations hold great potential in bringing a change. Sadly, this potential is not being understood in recent times. Even though technology might be the cause for providing us with the greatest convenience in 21st century, it has also, unfortunately, been the cause for the undermining the value of a conversation in the eyes of everyone. Today, whenever we have time to spare, we like sticking to our phones or laptops and scrolling through our social media feeds (which ironically cannot be any less social). On top of that, with the pandemic forcing us to shut all public places and sit at home, it has further reduced the chances to strike up a conversation with someone. But then the question here is that why is it so important anyway? I can imagine you wondering that as long as your daily life tasks and goals are not being affected, how does it even matter? So here is why a conversation is much more power...
