People are just as wonderful as sunsets if you let them be.
When I look at a sunset, I don't find myself saying "Soften the orange a bit on the right hand corner."
I don't try to control a sunset.
I watch with awe as it unfolds.

No matter what happens in life, be good to people.
Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself, or from holding certain views which others find inadmissible.

Don't chase people. Be yourself, do your own thing and work hard. The right people - the ones who really belong in your life - will come to you. And stay.

He who has peace of mind disturbs neither himself nor another.

Mohamed Safwat on Training: Train For Yourself

Can I tell you something beautiful a guy in a mosque once told me?I was complaining to him about people being bad. I was saying: “I don’t understand: Why are people bad? How do people sleep at night? Why do they do this, why do they do that? I’ve been screwed over by people all the time and I’m the good person.”And he said: “No, no, no. Why do you look at things like that? Think of it in this way: We are all vessels. If people took the love from you, if they took the time from you, let them keep it; they needed it. You were part of their prayer: God answered their prayer through you.”

And that resonated so much in me, that every time someone does me wrong now, yes, I’m human, I get hurt, but the pain is not what it used to be, because I’m like: “You know what? I’m sure God answered their prayer through me.”And then I look up at God and I say: “God, you have such an amazing sense of humour!”

“We are all vessels. If people took the love from you, if they took the time from you, let them keep it; they needed it. You were part of their prayer: God answered their prayer through you.”

Good has an amazing sense of humour. #SaraAlMadani #relationshipproblems #lifeadvice #feelingdown

Storytelling is the art of narrating an incident with flair, catering to the audience's taste for engagement, entertainment, and allure. It's the newfound niece of open-mic enthusiasts

What Is Storytelling

1. Transformation 2. Conviction 3. Connection4. Punctuations

Essential Ingredients Of Storytelling

A compelling story showcases the evolution of its characters, be it the protagonist or others. Whether it's a shift in mood or a grand transformation, it must be rational, believable, and authentic.

Transformation

Fiction or not, a story needs conviction. Weave instances and characters in a way that even if it's a tall tale, the audience nods along in belief. Stir emotions and articulate actions to establish a genuine connection.

Conviction

A successful storytelling forges a connection between the storyteller, the audience, and the story itself. Craft instances that resonate universally. Your narrative may be unique, but the emotions it carries should be universally relatable.

Connection

Punctuate your storytelling with pauses. These moments of silence are as crucial as the narrative itself. Whether building suspense, sparking curiosity, or evoking sorrow, strategic pauses enhance the storytelling experience. Master the art of timing for an unforgettable tale.

Punctuations

Remember, in the grand coffeehouse of narratives, mastering the art of storytelling adds sugar and spice to the brew, making it a concoction worth savoring.

Conclusion

Storytelling is no more an art. It's a skill everybody should possess.

The Best Ab Exercises for Aerialists

Today I will be sharing with you all, at surface level what seems to be a very minute and easily dismissible idea, but one, that when truly understood has potential beyond imaginations. It is something that truly guided me towards the right path, and helped me find the missing piece in me that I thought would be never be found.

An idea that changed my life, for real!

I am someone who has sunk their teeth in self-help, motivational videos and books and other stuff to find inner peace. To grow as a human being and to find true happiness. But, if you've any idea about the reality, it's really really difficult to read a book or watch a video and find something that would actually be life changing. For me, I found that idea form of a Youtuber. HealthyGamerGG!

Origin of the Idea

The idea is very simple. But, you have to be open-minded to understand the idea, and shed some ego to actually implement it. Because, the idea would sound so simple that you would actually think of just brushing it off as another fad and move on. However, I would seriously recommend trying it out before shredding it. So, here it goes. Anytime, anywhere, whenever you have a negative emotion come to you in a situation. When you get angry, sad or defensive. Just ask a simple question to yourself. "Buddy, what happened, why did you feel this way?"

The idea: A simple Questions, "WHY"

Once you ask yourself this simple "why did you feel this way" question. You would be awestruck by the answer that might come from you. You didn't feel anger because someone said something bad about you, you felt angered because You have an insecurity about the thing that made you angry. And you're letting it out on the person who just pointed it out.

The Dialogue

Once, you understand that you felt that way because you think there is something wrong with you. That is the moment when you truly have to understand your brain. Dig deep and ask yourself, that whatever insecurity you have, is it really true?

Finding the Truth

When you ask the question, is it really true, what you will realize is that your brain has been lying to you. Your brain after some traumatic experience has protected itself inside a coating where it weaves stories and facts that aren't real. To understand that you exist outside of your brain. To realize that your brain does lie to you, and might be delusional, is where the real magic happens.

Viola! 

<ol><li>Asking why do you feel that way! followed by</li><li>Is it the truth</li></ol>That is the path to true emotional liberation. Don't let your mind be in control of a deluded brain. You can't always trust your brain, but you can always figure it out how it works. This has been something truly revolutionary for me. I hope it helps you all.

The Truth Sets you Free

I have been liberated, set free of my fragmented vision of myself, and now I feel obligated to guide others on the same path. I would love for anyone who feel anxiety or feel depressed in their day to day lives, reach out to a doctor first, but if you can't for some reason, reach out to me, and we can have a blast. A really awesome conversation.My IG: /notgingerbutadiemail: adisingh7@live.com

Reach out to me...

I have found a tool that has set me free. I would love for everyone to know and understand how to do it, and thus I feel obligated to share it with everyone!

Understand yourself and those around you.

Strategies for Effective Communication and Decision-Making from Ancient Wisdom

To truly understand one's intentions, it is crucial to delve into their desires and interests. Desires can serve as a window into an individual's aspirations and willpower.For instance, someone with a strong desire for innovation and creativity may have intentions to drive positive change in their field. Recognising these desires allows us to "seek their benefits", align our objectives, and work collaboratively towards a common goal.

Understanding Intentions Through Desires

Revealing your true thoughts to establish common sentiments and building trust. Conversely, concealing thoughts may be necessary when evaluating sincerity.For example, in the negotiation between Zhulong and Queen Zhao, he revealed that he loved his youngest son the most. While the trust between the Queen and Zhulong was built, he successfully persuaded the Queen to send her son to the allied state as a hostage, skillfully demonstrating the revealing strategy to build trust with others.

Reveal and Conceal Strategies

Assessing the feasibility of a plan can help one to Understand the motivations behind their actions, allowing us to understand the situation, find the right direction, and adopt a flexible and adaptable way of handling things.Imagine a business negotiation where one party carefully analyses the feasibility of a proposed partnership. By understanding the other party's motivations and objectives, they can identify potential areas of synergy and collaboration. This analysis can be the difference between a successful partnership and a missed opportunity.

Analysing Feasibility

In our daily speech, we should not make sweeping generalisations to everybody, just like there are no two identical leaves on a tree. To prevent such mistakes, we should adapt to the individual and understand his motive comprehensively and deeply.For example, engaging in a healthy debate in the workplace can reap more benefits than conforming to a dominant perspective. Challenging different viewpoints and seeking deeper understanding can foster an environment of innovation and creativity. This approach not only results in better decision-making but also strengthens teamwork.

Adapting Communication Strategies

When engaging in a debate with someone, you can begin by mildly challenging their viewpoints, prompting them to elaborate further before offering counterarguments. This approach helps you grasp their actual situation and their intentions and goals.After challenging their viewpoints, you can either choose to reveal or conceal your thoughts based on the situation you deem appropriate.Lastly, To know if it's feasible or not, you must gain a clear understanding of the other person's strategies through commonalities and differences in the conversation.
