The secret MANTRA of HAPPINESS

I don’t know why, but today, not only for the sake of expressing my views... but with a keen wish to share something, I am writing this article.

Although a simple nine letter word, but the entire world revolves around it –HAPPINESS.

This word may different meanings for different person. A poor guy may consider richness as happiness, an aged man would see happiness in youthfulness, a single person would see happiness in commitment, a failure would consider success as happiness… and the list may go on and on…

And definitely, there is no single definition for this term. But why is HAPPINESS the most desired thing in life? I know it seems a quite stupid question ... but would say...that the answer to this question is equally thoughtless as well- “happiness is desired to be happy”.

But, will only the gain of gain of money will make the poor person happy…? Or only a commitment will bring happiness in the life of the single person…? Or only the achievement of a goal would make the failure happy..?

Surely not, one demand fulfilled will give rise to the creation of another demand and hence the reason to celebrate happiness will always get postponed. And if this stays as the trend, one would never achieve HAPPINESS in his/her life.

Therefore, it is very essential that along with finding happiness in every bit of life, one must also celebrate it to the fullest. Shout…dance…scream…eat…laugh…do whatever your heart says!

I know, everyone has ups and downs in life- might be on financial level, on emotional basis, or career oriented etc… there would be plenty of reasons to be tensed and upset. But, if tried with an honest effort by heart, the probability to find one such reason that would make one forget those plenty reasons is 100%. So, the need is just to try!

Also, I would like to share one secret mantra of happiness. When in your life, everyone appears hopeless and everything seems wrong...just go, stand in front of the mirror and smile …! And let your heart feel the beauty and the ultimate strength of your smile. Your face really shines with the sparkle of your smile!

That smile would definitely lead to the formation of a wave of optimism in your life; which would result in making your problems appears so small that you will solve or get the way to solve them in just a few seconds! Don’t believe me…? At least try… m very sure… it will work if you try it by heart. It’s said that you don’t achieve anything unless and until you try to get it… so to achieve this most desired thing of your life- HAPPINESS..  Just stand up right now…

The only need is…..           To smile….. !!!!!!!!

Super Seven Don'ts of Life

1. Don’t think much when it comes to expressing to your closed ones.

Although actions speak louder than words but at times, if you express your feelings with words to your closed ones, the feeling of happiness which they get is just beyond words. So, don’t wait for any occasion to express your feeling of love, care or affection for your loved ones. I agree, some bonds don’t need words but there is no harm even. Besides making you both happy, this thing will have remarkable positive affect on your relation.

                

2. Don’t ever miss an opportunity when you can make someone else happy.

Happiness: one common desire of all of us. Sources of happiness for one may vary from person to person but the best source is common for all of us – ‘making others happy.’

Make even a single person happy and witness your level of happiness reaching cloud nine.

3. Don’t take anyone as granted.

Undoubtedly, our bust schedule nowadays has led us to a position where we take many of our closed ones for granted intentionally or unintentionally. But, step into their shoes and then you would realize what blunder you are making in your life. So, go... get up! And correct it! And realize their importance before they go too far from you.

4. Don’t think much before apologizing even if you doubt that it was your mistake.

We all must have come across a quote – “You should apologize if you value your relation more than your ego.”

Honestly, I respect the word ‘sorry’ a lot! So, I believe, you should use it only when you mean it. But, yes, even if you think “maybe, it was my mistake…” you should apologize! As it won’t make you small but would bring an end to a big mess of your life.

5. Don’t even utter a word of disrespect for parents.

A lesson taught us since childhood – ‘Respect you elders.’

But, maybe some of us have forgotten it or never learnt it. No matter, how much we may get irritated by the generation gap between our parents and we, our respect for them should not get effected even a bit because we don’t even have an idea how much they do for us!

6. Don’t let your career get affected.

Life is full of ups and downs but don’t let anything affect your very important goal: career related goal of life. I agree that many times emotional imbalance doesn’t let you focus but don’t let that zone last for a long duration because any compromise with your career would make you enter a zone of regret from which it would be damn difficult to come out.

 7. Don’t find a reason to be happy.

Life – a precious gift must be lived in the best possible way. And therefore, you must not find a reason to be happy or to have a smile on your face. And one very important thing I would like to mention – don’t ever let your past miss happenings become the reason of your present sadness ; once things are gone, let their effects on you also go far from you as soon as possible.

Woman: a good housewife or a good entrepreneur

         “The role of a person in a society should not be based on caste or gender.”

Human beings are a beautiful creation of the Almighty God. The abilities which they possess can make the world progress and prosper. Each and every person has his own special talent which makes them stand out unique in this competitive world. Usually, people excel in the field in which they have interest and work hard to give their best.

Women – the part of society that actually makes the world go on…and reach the zenith of power.

According to me, women are multitalented. It’s just the talent or quality in them which they develop the more, it prospers more and accordingly they get a suitable and the perfect role in the society which becomes their courier.

We know that nowadays women have different roles: as housewives, as doctors, as engineers, and the list goes on and on…. And when it comes to the question

Women: good housewife or a good Entrepreneur…. Then the perfect answer to this can be – “it’s her wish!”

It is a well-known or it would be better to say that a well experienced fact that the proper well balanced life of each and every person is due to the women in the family. The role of a housewife is of crucial importance. She knows how to carry out all responsibilities in a perfect manner. This enables all the members of the family to achieve success in their lives. A commonly heard statement I would like to quote…when a boy attains the age of marriage… it is often said “iski to shaadi kra do…life set ho jaegi”… yes…so true…that a woman makes the life of a man “perfect” in every manner.

I don’t think that there is any need to give examples of successful housewives as you already know them… your wife, your mother, your grandmother….

Entrepreneurship is the process of starting a business or other organization. The entrepreneur chooses or develops a business model, acquires the human and other required resources and is fully responsible for its success or failure. Gone are the days when the field of entrepreneurship was only for the male section of the society. Now, women have stood out and proved that along with all the other roles, they can even become successful entrepreneurs. With the proper time management skills, capability to use all the resources appropriately and the talent to carry a task in the most accurate manner enables a woman to win laurels by becoming entrepreneur as well. The popular examples of this fact include Indra Nooyi (CFO,Pepsico) ,Naina Lal Kidwai (country head of HSBC, India) , Chanda Kochar (MD & CEO, ICICI Bank), Simone Tata (Lakme Chairpesron) and many more.

Thus to conclude, the sum and substance would be – a woman has enough potential to be a good housewife and also enough wisdom to become a good Entrepreneur. It is rightly said –

                   “Give a girl her right shoes and she can conquer the world.”

Magical combination of words – I LOVE YOU

The Wikipedia website defines love as – “Love is a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes that ranges from interpersonal affection ("I love my mother") to pleasure ("I loved that meal"). It can refer to an emotion of a strong attraction and personal attachment.” But, in my personal opinion this word has such a deep meaning that mere words don’t have the ability to define or describe it as it can just be felt!

Trust, sacrifice, care and concern… all such emotions can be felt and not defined. And these things, as per my views, are those which come from inside you when you genuinely love a person with all your soul from the bottom of your heart.

This great feeling of love, in most of the cases is taken in just one way. For a small child, love is what his parents feel for him and as that child grows older and turns to a handsome guy, he considers his girlfriend/wife as his love… and the day he becomes a parent, his children become his love and so the trend continues… But I consider that our Almighty God has given all of us such a big heart that it is not necessary for us to have feelings for love only for one person at a particular time. I mean, one can have immense love for his parents, friends, relatives, pets and everything or everyone that surrounds him. And not to forget – to have feeling for our own self is of utmost importance!

Coming to the magical combination, this two and a half letter word would have different levels of importance for different people. And yeah… these words have the ultimate strength to make even a sad person get energized with the feeling of happiness and pleasure. I know I need not mention much about the importance of this word as that pretty smile with which your face glowed on reading the topic of this article would have already proved it.

I genuinely respect these words a lot and have a strong belief that these words should be used with care. There is a dialogue in a famous Bollywood movie “Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani” –

“I love you” is just the starting… and what happens next is that… the two people involved are unable to handle it... “

I am not saying that don’t confess your feelings, it’s just be very sure when you these words as the feeling of love brings along with it a great deal of expectations. And if not fulfilled, those expectations tend to hurt people. So, definitely this magical combination of words has a tag of “Handle with Care” attached with it.

Although with the requirement of some efforts to be put in, the feeling of love leads to happiness all around. So, keep spreading the unconditional, immense, limitless and unbounded love of your big heart everywhere…! and feel the magic of happiness that will then surround you…
