It has been 27 trips around the sun in this incarnation and I’ve managed to learn a few things – some the easy way and some the really hard way. Nevertheless it was all worth it and I’m looking forward to the next however many trips I have left. Sharing my 2 cents, rather 27cents with you – would love to hear yours in the comments below!

1. You can never make everyone happy. If everyone is happy then it means you’re miserable.
2. Put your oxygen mask on before assisting a fellow passenger. The best gift you can give to anyone is to take care of you.
3. Making mistakes is OKAY! Even necessary. 
4. Learning the knowledge of Spirituality is the best gift you can ever give yourself.
5. No one knows you better than you. So when making a decision, ask others but make sure that you get the final call. 
6. Life will never be perfect – you have to choose happiness and make it work. Yes it’s a choice.
7. Everything always works out in the end. Everything. And I mean everything.
8. Never ever do wrong by anyone. Always do the right thing. What you give out comes back to you many many times. You never know who you meet in life when and how the dynamics will change between you two – your classmate that you’re bullying today may turn out to be your boss a few decades later.
9. Somethings in life – you’ve gotta fake it till you make it and that way you actually end up making it – things like, confidence.
10. Positivity is a matter of practise. There’s no talisman or amulet or guru that can make you positive. You need to wake up one day and make the decision to be relentlessly positive no matter what happens. It will take a few days or maybe months to rewrite your pattern but once you do – you become indestructible.
11. When stuck between a rock and a hard place always choose honesty – it will be painful in the short run but it’s going to save you a lot of time and effort.
12. You will never know how to date other people until you know how to date yourself. You’re the only person who’s going to be there till the end of the line.
13. A happy relationship is a result of two happy people, nothing less nothing more.
14. Your worst days will be your best teachers
15. Nothing you’ve ever learnt goes to waste in life. Life always comes full circle.
16. Trust the vibes you get – energy never lies.
17. There’s a reason for everything – it may not make any sense at the moment but it will.
18. Your world view determines the life you will live. How you see the world is what shapes your experiences. If you think the world is filled with cheats and schemers then you will spend the rest of your life dealing with being cheated and schemed.
19. You can never force a connection – if it’s meant to be, it will be. Stop trying so hard! If they wanted to stay they would.
20. No one can be there for you the way you can be there for you. There will times when no one’s cheering for you, be your own cheerleader.
21. Everything in life is a phase – nothing is permanent. Enjoy it while you can. Learn from it while you can.
22. There is a lot in the world that you have no clue about – always be in learner mode.
23. Reading consistently is a high payback habit.
24. When you’ve achieved something, before you move on to the next thing, don’t forget to celebrate it, no matter how small.
25. Self care and self love should not be saved for occasions or when you’ve done something good. It supposed to be part of your daily routine so that you keep doing good things all the time. You don’t want to look in the mirror and realise you’re no longer eligible for that adventure you waited all these years to take.
26. There’s a child that you left behind when you grew up – that child still lives inside you and still acts out when you face daily situations. Love and nurture that kid.
27. Daily workout and meditation practise is a non-negotiable if you have dreams and plan on living a long and big life.

Happy Birthday Me!🫶🏼
