“If We Only Wanted To Be Happy, It Would Be Easy.”

Here are my thoughts about journaling and the things which stimulated my daily journaling practice 😀

My 2 Years Of Journaling Experience 

I still remember before 2 years I read some random free ebook from Kindle and one book caught my attention to journaling with one sentence "Start creating a daily journaling practice ,one day who knows it may be your million dollar diary 💖" actually the author explained that following a diary can be very useful to you like it is worth a million dollar 💵💰 that's where my journey started

Where It All Started 

I love seeing different names and imagining things as person 😂, which is a weird habit, but that's why I created a name for my diary so that I can write like i am writing to a friend who is in a long distance relationship with me !! So i named an object with a human name 😅😅

Funny Thing Which I Did

My diary or my journal is my friend!!,i write everything i think 🤔,weird ideas, beautiful memories, success stories as well as failure stories,I have a big journal so that I no need to have a lots of small diaries, i preferred large sized one in small quantities to small sized notes in a large quantities, i maintained separate journals for my thought sharing,Goal trackers etc..

Journal As A Friend ❤️

I consistently write because I never want to miss a single moment of my feelings and thoughts!! This idea motivated not to skip journal writing!!!

My Consistency 🔥🔥🔥

<ol><li>Memories - it's like a life long story recorder which you can turn back and revisit your moments, seriously this is the most amazing thing about journaling</li><li>Stress buster- in some ways it reduces my stress and anxiety it's like sharing to someone else who won't judge anything</li><li>Knowing myself- i usually don't know about myself I mean I can't really say which I like or which I don't like I was used to be in a confused state, by reading my past journals,I can get to know myself better which is a great thing!!</li><li>Gratitude - I also follow gratitude practice,so it increases my positivity</li></ol>

Benefits Of My Journaling Habit 😍

These are the things I wanted to share, it's all about my personal opinion ,hope you find it useful!!!!And also don't forget to smile 😁

Thanks For Reading!!!!!

"Needs" and "wants" are two distinct categories that differentiate between essential requirements and discretionary desires.

Needs: Needs refer to the basic necessities or fundamental requirements for human survival, well-being, and functioning. These are the things that are essential for maintaining a decent standard of living.

Needs

a. Physiological needs: These are the most basic human needs required for survival, such as food, water, shelter, clothing, and sleep.b. Safety and security needs: Once the physiological needs are met, individuals require a sense of safety and security. This includes personal security, financial stability, access to healthcare, and a safe environment.c. Social needs: Humans are social beings, and they require social interaction, love, belongingness, and relationships to maintain their mental and emotional well-being.

Typical Examples Of Needs

d. Esteem needs: Esteem needs involve the desire for self-respect, recognition, achievement, and appreciation from others. These needs are related to self-esteem and self-worth.e. Self-actualisation needs: At the highest level of needs, individuals strive for personal growth, self-fulfilment, and reaching their full potential.

Continued

Wants: Wants are desires or preferences that are not necessary for survival but are sought after for personal satisfaction, pleasure, or convenience. These are things that individuals may aspire to have but can live without. Wants are subjective and can vary from person to person, influenced by personal preferences, cultural factors, and societal influences.

Wants

a. Luxury goods: Expensive cars, designer clothing, high-end electronics, and other luxury items are often considered wants rather than needs.b. Entertainment: Activities such as going to the movies, concerts, or amusement parks are wants that provide enjoyment and leisure.c. Travel: While travel can be fulfilling and enriching, it is generally considered a want unless it is necessary for work or other essential reasons.d. Hobbies and leisure activities: Pursuits like playing sports, collecting items, or engaging in artistic endeavours are wants that bring personal satisfaction and enjoyment.

Examples of wants include:

It is important to distinguish between needs and wants to make informed decisions about allocating resources and prioritising one's actions. Needs should be prioritised over wants to ensure the fulfilment of essential requirements before pursuing discretionary desires.

Priortise Yourself

Needs are essential for survival and well-being, whereas wants are discretionary desires that go beyond basic requirements. Understanding the distinction between needs and wants helps individuals prioritize their resources, make informed decisions, and ensure that essential needs are met before pursuing optional wants.

"Innovation is not about creating something new, but rather about solving problems in a better way."

Revolutionizing the way startups are built and businesses are launched. 🌟📚

Most startups fail. But many of those failures are preventable. The Lean Startup is a new approach being adopted across the globe, changing the way companies are built and new products are launched. Eric Ries defines a startup as an organization dedicated to creating something new under conditions of extreme uncertainty. This is just as true for one person in a garage or a group of seasoned professionals in a Fortune 500 boardroom. What they have in common is a mission to penetrate that fog of uncertainty to discover a successful path to a sustainable business. The Lean Startup approach fosters companies that are both more capital efficient and that leverage human creativity more effectively. Inspired by lessons from lean manufacturing, it relies on “validated learning,” rapid scientific experimentation, as well as a number of counter-intuitive practices that shorten product development cycles, measure actual progress without resorting to vanity metrics, and learn what customers really want. It enables a company to shift directions with agility, altering plans inch by inch, minute by minute. Rather than wasting time creating elaborate business plans, The Lean Startup offers entrepreneurs—in companies of all sizes—a way to test their vision continuously, to adapt and adjust before it’s too late. Ries provides a scientific approach to creating and managing successful startups in a age when companies need to innovate more than ever.

Unveiling the mysteries of rapid decision-making and intuitive judgment.

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking

Our unconscious mind processes vast amounts of information, enabling rapid decision-making. It draws on our experiences, cultural biases, and emotional cues to form intuitive judgments.

1. The Adaptive Unconscious

Through thin-slicing, our minds filter essential patterns from seemingly insignificant details. This ability allows us to make accurate snap judgments in a fraction of a second.

2. Thin-Slicing

Our thoughts and behaviors can be influenced by subtle environmental cues, shaping our responses without conscious awareness. Understanding and managing these priming effects can help us make more informed choices.

3. Priming

Unconscious biases—formed through our experiences and cultural influences—can impact our judgments and decision-making. Recognizing and addressing these biases can enhance objectivity and fairness.

4. Unconscious Bias

In high-pressure situations, our rapid cognition can sometimes lead to flawed judgments. It is crucial to cultivate self-awareness, gather diverse perspectives, and challenge initial intuitive responses.

5. High-Stakes Decisions

Experts in various domains develop intuition through years of experience and deliberate practice. Their finely tuned snap judgments are often accurate, making them valuable resources in decision-making.

"Truly successful decision-making relies on a balance between deliberate and instinctive thinking."

Unveiling the mysteries of rapid decision-making and intuitive judgment. 🌟📚

From the #1 bestselling author of The Bomber Mafia, the landmark book that has revolutionized the way we understand leadership and decision making. In his breakthrough bestseller The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell redefined how we understand the world around us. Now, in Blink, he revolutionizes the way we understand the world within. Blink is a book about how we think without thinking, about choices that seem to be made in an instant--in the blink of an eye--that actually aren't as simple as they seem. Why are some people brilliant decision makers, while others are consistently inept? Why do some people follow their instincts and win, while others end up stumbling into error? How do our brains really work--in the office, in the classroom, in the kitchen, and in the bedroom? And why are the best decisions often those that are impossible to explain to others? In Blink we meet the psychologist who has learned to predict whether a marriage will last, based on a few minutes of observing a couple; the tennis coach who knows when a player will double-fault before the racket even makes contact with the ball; the antiquities experts who recognize a fake at a glance. Here, too, are great failures of "blink": the election of Warren Harding; "New Coke"; and the shooting of Amadou Diallo by police. Blink reveals that great decision makers aren't those who process the most information or spend the most time deliberating, but those who have perfected the art of "thin-slicing"--filtering the very few factors that matter from an overwhelming number of variables.

A counterintuitive approach to living a good life by focusing on what truly matters.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck

Accept that life is inherently unpredictable, and find freedom in embracing the unkown rather than seeking absolute certainty.

1. Embrace Uncertainty

Identify your core values and prioritize what truly matters to you, aligning your actions and choices accordingly.

 2. Chose Your Values Wisely

Recognize that struggles and challenges are an inevitable part of life, and instead of avoiding them, learn to embrace them as opportunities for growth and resilience.

3.  Embrace the Struggle

Shift from a victim mentality to taking full responsibility for your life, acknowledging that you have the power to shape your circumstances and responses.

4.  Take Responsibility

Release the need for constant approval from others and find genuine fulfillment by focusing on internal validation and self-acceptance.

5. Let Go of External Validation

Recognize that failure is a natural part of the learning process, and by reframing it as a stepping stone to success, you can cultivate resilience and take bolder risks.

6. Embrace the Beauty of Failure

Prioritize living in alignment with your values and being true to yourself, even if it means going against societal norms or expectations.

7. Live with Integrity

A counterintuitive approach to living a good life by focusing on what truly matters. 🌟📚

#1 New York Times BestsellerOver 10 million copies soldIn this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be "positive" all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people.For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F**k positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected American society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—"not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault." Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek.There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People

Passion is a feeling that follows action. It tends to be created or discovered, not predicted or planned. You don't find your passion. It finds you as you get in the mix and try things.

Highly focused people do not leave their options open. They select their priorities and are comfortable ignoring the rest. If you commit to nothing, you’ll be distracted by everything.
