Goal setting: How to set an achievable goal

Hello Reader :) Thank you for being on my page. The topic is Goal-setting. It explains how to set an achievable goal/s. I hope that you will find an important element to add to your goal-planning. With or without our knowledge we set goals on a daily basis. I would say that any act that we do is somewhat a planned one rather than an impulsive one. We act impulsively when our emotions are at an extreme end. We set goals to get the desired outcome. However, most of our goals fail due to various external factors Setting a goal is a task. When we are setting our goals we need to be conscious of the values we follow and it needs to align with our ideas as well. Most often, failure of a goal is due to a lack of passion; without passion, no goal can be achieved. Your goal need not be a big task or a great achievement. Even setting simple and small goals and working towards them will give us a clear focus on what we are doing and will help us in achieving a bigger goal with much greater satisf

A Balanced Life!

  Hello Reader :) Happy New Year to All! This year is going to be a Happy 2022 for all of us in terms of both personal and career life. Said this, I welcome you all back to my blog. Thank you so much for being on my page and taking your time off in reading an article. This article is all about balance. We might have heard several times that our life needs to be balanced. But how? We have our own ways of dealing with it. However, let me share one of the other ways which even you may not have given thought of it ;) Something to ponder Reconciling in a relationship amazes me! What amazes you? A person full of misery is still normal to me but a person with mystery amazes me. What are his intentions? Why is he so different every time you come across him? I find such people dangerously unique. I say danger because you don’t know the impact that he is making on you. I say unique because such talents are rare. Let's begin! Our mental health is very important in order to keep going

TESTED POSITIVE!

  Hello Reader :) How are you doing? Hope things are getting better at your end be it personal, professional, physical, or psychological. Right now I am being compassionate about your well-being. Compassion is one of the greatest virtues one can have. The idea behind this is to remind ourselves that we live in a society and not in isolation therefore, show love in order to receive. This in turn takes care of our mental health. To begin with – It was lockdown days in 2020. The schools were closed and the government declared work from home. Many lost jobs, many got stuck in one place, many lost their loved ones to the COVID-19, some of them experienced domestic violence, and some got divorced while some got married. Yet life was moving as per nature’s decision. But what I saw was that COVID-19 kept many of us closer and built a deeper understanding of each other. The relationship became transparent which was good for some and worst for others. Whatever maybe the obstacle, we ra

ANXIETY!

Hello Reader:) Thank you so much for being on my page. I am glad that you have decided to read about anxiety. This article is all about what an anxious brain can do and a first step to overcome anxiety. Let me put it straight, though I am a psychologist, the article is not from a clinical perspective using a psychological brain rather it’s of a person’s personal experience with psychological intellect. If you would like to know the depth of anxiety go ahead and click on this following google link, and I hope that it helps you. https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/anxiety-disorders/index.shtml To begin with my anxiety: Someone created this blog for me a decade ago mocking on my writing skills. I was then not so good at expressing my thoughts and that’s what I thought. And my blog site remained untouched for 10 long years. I was always anxious about my language skills and I believed that I would never write in my life. But then one beautiful morning thoughts were just flowing i

DAWN!

  Hello Reader:) Thank you so much for being on my page. The topic is Dawn and the hidden meaning. We know that Dawn means morning. To be specific, the light that emerges before the sunrise. We can also say ‘The Beginning’. Dusk gives hope for tomorrow! Dusk gives hope for tomorrow. Dawn manifests the hope that we hold for the day. We are simply hoping for the normal life to resume amidst this pandemic. Yet when we wake up we move with our routine with that smile on our face. We resonate when we realise the purpose of this benign life. The question is how many of us really wake up for dawn? No, don't think about waking up early morning. It's different. As you read you will understand. What you see below is my certitude is written in the form of poem :)   I see the light, the ray of hope, My heart swings to achieve the goal, And I set a volition to achieve the goal, And never, looking back!   Resilience for strength, which is a challenge to move on. It’s hard. Grief is catas

Stress = COVID-19

Hello Reader :)  When you say that happiness is within, then you must be living a Mystic life. I believe that my readers are not soul seekers. We are like any other human beings, seeking for love, happiness, peace, acceptance and humanity. However, we are not sure whether we are only seekers or giving the same to others. We all have that moment of sadness, jealous, hopelessness, fear, disappointment, hatred or anger which causes Stress. Stress is inevitable and there is no cure for it, which means that we can only cope with it. There is no one on this earth living a stress-free life. Of course, there are many of us who are successfully coping with stress. Today I would like to share my views on how stress has brought changes amidst the global pandemic situation. The current COVID-19 has caused fear in every single being irrespective of age, gender, race or creed. It has got us into a lot of thinking like fear of death, fear of losing a job, fear of going hungry, fear of losing

Love!

Hello Reader :) Thank you so much for being on my page and choosing to read my article. Today I would like to give a few inputs about love, a word that mesmerizes the world around you. Yes, it is because I am not going to discuss Love in general. I am going to be very specific about the love relationship between a boy and a girl. I had this in my mind for a very long time to reach it to my reader. Below what you read in the image is an expression of love by an anonymous writer -  Love is in your thoughts I wonder is this how a feeling of a person in love. Isn’t this an obsession of a person? Isn’t this a craving for physical intimacy, a basic instinct of humans? Won’t this break his/her heart when the love doesn’t meet your demand? Or should I say that it’s a need? I also wonder are these feelings perpetual or just a moment of life? As a Counselling Psychologist, I have come across people who continue to cling on to a person who actually disrespects the so-called girlfriend/ boyf

Making Life!

Hello Reader :)  Thank you so much for being on my page. I am so grateful for your love and extended support. Life is not a bed of roses but there are thorns in it. I know it is clichéd but isn't it true? In other words, I would rather say that Life is like a rollercoaster. We all experience the game in a very different way. For some it is such a thrill journey, for some, it is such a real joy of a journey and for some, it is a dreadful journey. There are also some who doesn’t even want to step into it and running away from life. However, life keeps pulling you back and that is called an opportunity, to live and let live. Today I would like to share my thoughts about how one’s attitude could be towards life. Life is not a Bed of Roses! Our Perspective towards Life in general: We all have this attitude of blaming someone or something when things do not go the way we want. We just don’t want to take up the responsibility. However, we are in full accountable
