How to help yourself become your best version – Part 2

If you’re someone who is in desperate need for a change of pace in your life; if you feel like your life has been stuck in second gear for a while now; if you have the dedication to up your game and thrust yourself up towards your success, then you’re in the right place! Check out Part 1 of the ongoing series on How to help yourself become your best version before continuing further with the part 1. Learn to let go and walk away This may seem confusing, but it is NOT a rule to stand and fight every fight. You have the right to choose your battles. Fighting with someone who is hell-bent on proving you wrong or making you seem like the bad guy is a battle that you can choose not to fight by simply walking away. This goes for every situation that you may face in your life. Before bursting out in a fight, take a minute and evaluate the situation and take a call on whether or not this fight is worth your time, efforts, physical and mental energy. Manage time efficiently Most of us waste our precious time in scrolling our phones. It is vital to remember that time once lost is lost forever, and procrastinating your task is simply going to circle back and ruin your tomorrow’s plans. Chart out your daily routine and prioritise your tasks under 4 categories, viz., Urgent and Important, Urgent but NOT important, NOT Urgent but important, and lastly, NOT Urgent and NOT Important. This will essentially help you split your tasks and complete them on time. Try to stay positive and realistic With everything spiralling downward, it is exhausting to keep your head up high in the clouds of hope and positivity. Even though that seems quite reasonable to be pessimistic, but what we focus on and what we manifest plays a very huge part in our lives. Chanting words of positive affirmation and hope helps you cheer up your day and gives you the hope to proceed further. Do not forget to keep your expectations and goals realistic so as to avoid any possible pitfalls. Learn to analyse yourself Understanding oneself is crucial to track your growth pace. Unless you have the ability to analyse yourself, it would be very difficult to trace your areas of improvement and where you need more focus. Analysing oneself automatically answers the question of what can I do to improve myself. If this article has helped you in any way, then keep an eye out for more such content!

SECRET TO A STRESS-FREE Vacation

Are you planning your next vacation and feeling overwhelmed with the idea of packing and organizing everything? Let’s face it — travelling can be stressful. However, with the right preparation, you candefinitely reduce unnecessary stress and actually enjoy your vacation. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of things to keep in mind to help you stay organized, reduce stress, and have an unforgettable trip. Read along! Lay the groundwork: It is important to educate yourself and keep yourself updated and informed about your vacation destination. Gather all necessary information regarding the culture, tradition, local language(s), weather, popular tourist spots, restaurants, hotels, transport system, etc. You could always reach out to agencies that are popular for their travel assistance services. This will make your journey seamless and hassle-free. Availability of tech support: In case, you do opt for the services of a travel assistance agency or company make sure they back you up with tech support and assistance. This service becomes imperative as you will always have assistance if you face any minor/major hiccups during your trip. Travel-related issues will be dealt with swiftly and effectively. This takes away all your stress and you can concentrate and enjoy your vacation to the fullest. Carry neck pillow: Long trips can leave you feeling tired and uncomfortable.A neck pillow can provide much-needed support for your head and neck and make your journey a lot more comfortable. Neck pillows come in handy, especially at times when you are on the road for a longer stretch of time or when there are elders travelling with you. Always have a portable charger: One of the worst things that can happen during travel is running out of battery on your phone or other electronic devices. A portable charger can be a lifesaver, especially when you’re out exploring and taking photos. With a portable charger, you can recharge your devices on the go and never miss a moment. Just in case, if you lose your portable charger or simply forgot to carry it with you, having a subscription to Emergency Assistance with the travel assistance company can come in handy, as it can be of great help in case of an emergency, such as a medical emergency, theft or loss of baggage. Stay organized with a travel wallet: A travel wallet is a great way to keep all your travel documents, such as passports, tickets, and boarding passes, organized and easily accessible. It’s also a good idea to keep some cash and credit cards in your travel wallet in case of emergencies. In case you’re still unaware of the prerequisites and whereabouts, you can always access app-based platforms — providers that can help you with things like visa assistance, currency exchange, and travel insurance. Use compression socks: Compression socks are a must-have for long flights or road trips. They help to improve blood flow and reduce swelling in your feet and legs, which can be especially important if you have a medical condition or are pregnant. Medical Assistance is advisable ifyou’re travelling with elders or someone with a medical condition or an emergency as these providers can arrange medical services for you when needed. Carry a universal adaptor: If you’re travelling to a foreign country, a universal adapter is a must-have. It allows you to charge your electronic devices and use your hairdryer or other appliances without worrying about voltage differences. As we already emphasized, Travel assistance is the numero uno prerequisite in this case as well because travel experts can help you with things like local customs and culture, language translation, and local transportation. A universal adaptor is great for your devices but you need to care about yourself too. Right? Invest in a first aid kit: A first aid kit is a must-have for any traveller. It should include essentials such as band-aids, antiseptic wipes,pain relievers, and essential medicines. First aid kits are an integral addition to any travel kit as it gives us peace of mind while we compile our itineraries. Essential docs and paperwork: No matter where you’re travelling and why — it is better to be totally prepared before testing the waters. With your travel plans, the most important element to the travel that makes you legally eligible to move from one place toanother is the ticket and the paperwork. Make sure they are always with you. Back them up with sufficient copies. Subscribe to travel assistance service: Moreover, it’s essential if you can include emergency travel assistance also as a part of your travel plan. Travel assistance service is like a guardian angel that looks out for you during your travels, ensuring that you have a stress- free and enjoyable trip. It’s a must-have essential for any traveller who wants to experience peace of mind whileexploring new destinations. With travel assistance, you can have someone by your side to help you with everything from flight delays and cancellations to lost luggage and medical emergencies. It’s like having a personal concierge that you can rely on 24/7, no matter where you are. So, if you want to make the most out of your travels, be sure to have travel assistance on your side, and you’ll never have to worry about anything other than having a great time. Final verdict: Travelling can be a daunting task for first-timers especially when you’re not aware of what you need to do and howto ensure a seamless journey and safe trip. In such cases, a bit of homework and a subscription to travel assistance services can be the easiest and the most convenient way to make sure that your travel experience remains a pleasant one.

How to help yourself become the your best version – Part 1

Trying So hard and yet failing miserably, putting in all your efforts and dedication only to be called an effortless effort. If all these make you want to scream into a pillow and cry at nights, then this article is just the right pick for you. Consider this as the massive sign from the universe that is about to make you rethink your entire life and put you on a path of streamlined and consistent development. One of the major problems faced by today’s generation is not the naiveness of what is wrong, rather, the absence of guidance on what is right and what is to be done when and how. This article is the part 1 of the upcoming 4 part article, wherein, I explain what needs to be done to thrust up your success. Have the ability to break a process into steps Whenever you’re in a situation that has put you in the weaker tone, the issue is not about you lacking the knowledge or solution, instead, it lies in the incapability of a person to deduce a problem into smaller parts, which would, in fact, give you more clarity on the issue and induce you to create innovative solutions to them. Logical decisions over Emotional choices Given at any point in life, every living organism has to make countless decisions. May it be major life altering decisions like whom to marry or minor decisions like should you take an umbrella to work today, we all make decisions every other minute. Giving more importance and weightage to your Emotional Quotient rather than considering all the Logical aspects of the available choices can cause more damage and even knit the problems tighter. So next time you try to take any decision, try having a logical debate instead of an emotional battle. Accept and celebrate your Failures It may seem foolish to celebrate your failure, but upon closer inspection, you’re not actually celebrating the idea of you failing, rather, you’re giving yourself a pat on the back for putting in your best efforts and dedication. This will not only help you handle failures better than before, but also help you to remain consistent in your goals, since you’re already ready to face your failures, if any. Learn to ask for help Just like any other living creature on the face of the Earth, always remember that our complex society stands solely because humans are co-dependent. This means that it is okay to ask for help and it is okay to feel vulnerable at times. This does not make you petty or powerless, instead, this helps you remember whom to keep in your life and who would actually help you at times of trouble and tiredness. So remember, it is perfectly alright to take a step back and rest for a while from your mechanical life. Grooming oneself to become their own personal hero is something that every human deserves, along with some self love.
