  • Reflections

    Not all athletes win an olympic gold. Not all scientists get the Nobel prize. Not all authors win a Booker prize. So why burden yourself with the pressure of outperforming?

    Not saying to not chase your dreams. Neither proposing giving up your passion or profession. Just a wild Wednesday reflection of why not revel in being you. Why always chase titles, awards, prizes and accolades. Why not enjoy the journey itself. Why look for assurances in achievements. Why not stay self contained. Why seek validation externally. Why not discover peace within.

    Cherish. Be grateful. Nourish. Ruminate. Preserve. Construct. Unlearn. Relearn. Think out of the box. Eureka moments don’t happen in chaos. They need a reflective state of mind to nurture.

    Not all of us would go on to accomplish larger than life goals. So better most of us start cherishing the moments as they pass and savour the memories built around them.
