Even past has something good to offer. When it comes to attaining happiness, the usual suggestion is to live in the present and forget the past. But, sometimes past has the most beautiful experiences to forward for your current as well as future. If something is there in the old times and years that can make you feel energised and inspired then it is not bad to look behind. In fact, sometimes when you feel dull and destroyed, it is a past achievement or moment that revives you to stand again. The best way to do this can be a flashback of your old pictures, which helps you recall the happy days. Keep going back in old days as they may give a better idea to improve your today and tomorrow.

But don’t you think that here we need to change the approach. Why to wait desperately fo...

  Main apni favourite hoon. “Oo, she has those awful blackheads.” “Ah, such a skinny one” “Tooo.. curvy n pansy” “Ugly and black, Oreo toned” 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ This gradually leads to... The inner voice: “I have a pimple. I don’t wanna go out” “Shit, the facial hair! How I’m I gonna show up?” “Maybe I should lose some pounds” “I’ve this ugly scars which everyone would notice  😩 ” The origins of the voice of the inner judge is simple to trace: it is an internalisation of the voice of people who were once outside us.  Sometimes, a voice is positive and benign, encouraging us. But more often, the inner voice is not very nice at all. It is defeatist and punitive, panic-ridden and humiliating. An inner voice was always once an outer voice that we have imperceptibly made our own. In a world where we’ve been raised to put others first, self-love can often feel selfish. Setting aside time for self-love causes feelings of guilt, and we struggle to maintain a dedicated self-love prac...

  kuch na kuch chooth jaayega bunny:) FOMO - fear of missing out, in millennials  The stream of Facebook updates, the texts so you know what you’re missing in the moment, the Instagrams that let you see it and weep.  That brunch/lunch/party you skipped?
