If You Are Sarcastic & You Don't Like It, Then Do This Instead

Some people love sarcasm. If you are one of them then so be it. As long as you are happy and at the same time not hurting others. Well, that's the hardest part of being sarcastic right. Personally I used to be one and I realized as my values begin to change, I changed as well. Sarcasm at times can be hurtful.

If you are not happy about it and want to change it then try this. Replace sarcasm with compliments. The first time I tried this it was like a shock to the person that I was talking to. Like it's coming from me and it's not normal but eventually it became a habit.

Sarcasm is basically the sign of a intelligent and rebellious mind questioning boldly on the norms and behavior of people. Let's put it this way. It's basically artful nagging and whining about the situation or people.

Compliments are beautiful. Instead of complaining, you are forcing your mind to find a good thing in that. If sarcasm is a sign of an intelligent mind then I would say giving compliments is greater than that. You need creativity to compliment things that doesn't make sense! I know it sounds silly but use compliment to address what's right and criticize what's wrong next.

You have to do the right thing which is telling the truth but there's a better way of doing it. Start with what's right and then the bad stuff. When I'm asking you to compliment I am asking you to speak the truth that cannot be seen followed by what's wrong and how to fix it.

Next time when you feel like you want to be sarcastic in a group chat or in a party, remember to compliment first and then speak the other truth.

Compliment baby.

If You Don't Know What You Want Then Do This

One of the hardest point in my life was to find out what I really wanted. You can call that a goal, purpose or a milestone to be reached but I am talking about identity crisis here. When you are following a mentor you are becoming more like them in your shades and at one point you will realize that you can fulfill your potential further than that.  You have your own and unique potential and to discover that, you need to embark on a self discovery journey. That journey might take decades because you must try a lot and find out what works for you. Sometimes, it won't be just one calling for all. There might be a few in a row. To cut it short there's a simple way to find out what you want if you don't know what you really want. We have to go the opposite way and find out what you don't want. Choose someone that you know and you don't like. List down every single details on why you don't like that person. Write as many as you can until you run out of ideas. Now the ...

No One Has Ever Become Poor By Giving

No one has ever become poor by giving. - Anne Frank. She was 15 years old when she wrote this in her diary. To give is to achieve your life's purpose. Giving without any expectations is the purest of all. You don't necessarily have to give money. It can be love, time, knowledge and joy. Best of all it'll return back to you. Givers are achievers. You must give value and in return you will receive value too. Give like there's nothing to lose. Give it with love. Think Small T. Mohanadasan

New Year Resolution Won't Work Unless You Do This

It's New Year already and you must have decided to set a goal either for your physical fitness or financial fitness. Whatever your goal is it won't work if you can't stick to it for long term. The body that you have now is the sum of the food choices that you made over the years and you expect you can change just like that. No, it won't work. The ultimate reason why you fail to stick to your goal is because of your environment. No matter how hard you try, some external forces will suppress you and your goal. Don't try to fight it because you will fail harder the next time. The only thing that you must do before setting any resolution is to change your environment. You are the product of your environment. If you were born in a war zone, probably your resolution must be to stay alive. Your environment can shape you and it has power over you. The best thing that you can do is to set your environment in a way that can be inducing for you to create and follow processes t...
