- 1. Listen to yourself:
The
biggest mistake we do nowadays is that we rarely listen to ourselves and listen
to others very carefully that what they think of us and what is their judgment.
That is wrong my friends. This is YOUR life. It's totally fine to discuss or
seek the advice of those who are more experienced or your loved ones but don’t
stop your mind think and listen to what your heart says. Don’t ignore yourself
at all.
- 2. It’s okay not to be okay:
A person cannot be happy all the time. The one
who says this is a liar. They can be satisfied with the life, but sadness is a
natural phenomenon which can occur to anyone of us at any time. So it's okay.
There is no need to pretend always and that I am very happy. Sulk and whine and
cry if you want. Don’t push yourself to get up and get back to the normal, let
your emotions flow, but do remember that others can make you smile, but only
you get to decide when to take a step and be the reason of your own smile and
happiness.
- 3. Have your own identity :
You whether as a male or female living with
family having your very big friends' circle should have your own identity. It's
not necessary that you will win a Nobel prize and only then you can achieve
your own identity. No!! Have faith in yourself and identify your own skills.
Stop being dependent on others.
- 4. Use “ NO” like a pro:
People nowadays DO make unreasonable requests and
arguments and every time you don’t have the energy to explain everything. So
have some courage to say NO to unreasonable requests and have your inner peace.
This unnecessary YES caused a lot of damage to peace of mind. Practicing saying
no will not only ease your mental pain, but also physical pain too, because
when we do something against our will our body gets tensed and it causes
physical pain.
- 5. Make your list:
Define a set of people or things to whom you never want to ignore, because this is how YOU want it to be. It may seem
difficult to start because we actually don’t know who actually deserve this
because we are so involved in making EVERYONE happy. But trust me that’s not
possible. Only a few people will be actually happy and sad because of your
success or any difficulty facing in your life. So yeah please make a list of
people who give you comfort and sanity.
- 6. Try to ensure that outside influence don’t affect you:
Make yourself strong enough that outside
influence or specifically “LOG” (PEOPLE)
don’t affect you. I have seen many people around me who risk their whole
life because of this stupid fear of society. Guys, this is YOUR LIFE. YOU have
to live it with your own rules and follow them to make YOURSELF HAPPY. As long
you are not hurting someone live your life and be confident whatever you do and
just seek ALLAH’S help to guide you towards the right path. Listen to your
heart rather listening to those unnecessary people.
- 7. Don’t aspire to b that girl/boy:
Allah has made
each and every one of us unique in our own ways. Instead of wanting to be like
someone else trying to find that uniqueness in yourself. I know it's difficult,
I still don’t know my uniqueness :P but at least what we can do is stop
comparing our lives together it only make us miserable. If you want anything,
instead of mourning on it ask ALLAH for it.
- 8. Self-care:
Take out time
from your busy routine just for your own self. Do whatever makes you happy
whether it's going out or staying in bed all day. It also includes mental
refreshing and physical care. Put some mask on and listen to your favorite
music, watch a favorite movie or sleep all day. But make sure it's your time
with your own self. Talk to yourself and listen to your heart and never ignore
what it wants :P
Lastly, I had
read somewhere:
you are born and then you die, but in between, you can do anything you want, it’s society that creates rules for us, but you can break out of that.
Zindagi aik baar
milti hai jee lein dusroun ki nahi apni marzi se, dusroun ki fikar chor dein
unk pas apni zindagi hai aap apni ko behtar banayen :P
