A lot of people have started to say “Become yourself” and “Be you”. Which is nice in essence but most of us do not know how to go about doing it. We already thought we were being ourselves! We already believed that we were us. So what’s with all these people telling us to be who we are? The reason people tell you that is simple: Right now you are trying too hard to be someone you’re not. How many times a day do you lie to people you care about? How often do you not say what you want to say? How frequently do you stop yourself from acting a certain way? And how much do you try to be someone better and greater than you currently are? All of these are signs that you are not being yourself, that you are trying too hard to be someone else. When you are truly yourself you will have no need to lie. You will be able to say what you want, and you will do not have to stop yourself from acting a certain way. Becoming better or greater can still be part of yo...

There are times when fear feels like respect but the long and short of it is that they are not both the same thing. You don't believe me. Well why not ask legendary Chinese General, master of warfare and author of the blueprint of modern warfare, the art of war. Sun Tzu. This is most probably one of my favourite quotes of all time and it has always resonated with me. Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look upon them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death. If, however, you are indulgent, but unable to make your authority felt; kind-hearted, but unable to enforce your commands; and incapable, moreover, of quelling disorder: then your soldiers must be likened to spoilt children; they are useless for any practical purpose. Bestow rewards without regard to rule, issue orders without regard to previous arrangements; and you will be able to handle a whole army as though you had to do with but a single...

Simple, it is having a friend whom you would like to be more than just friends with, but they don’t. So, what they’d do is FRIEND ZONE you! As in, s/he would tell you things that would point to the fact that they’re not interested in you. Still a bit lost? Don’t worry! I Have many examples to make this topic clearer for you. So next time you’re being friend zoned, don’t embarrass yourself any further and show that ‘always a friend, never a boy/girlfriend’ what they’re missing. So, without stalling, here are the most famous friend-zoning hints your ‘I just wanna be friends’ would give you. Or maybe you could use (Although, I feel sorry for that other person.) : To avoid repetition, let’s assume that you are the friend zonee (the victim). 1-Reminding you that you are just a friend: You are such a good friend!You are my best friend!You’ll ALWAYS be my friend!Best FRIEND FOREVER!!You’re like my brother/...

Talking about your emotions is not the only way to face them and be free. People find other, more private ways to do the same. Last Sunday we talked about the ability to manage excessive and negative emotions, helping steer them into a desirable, positive direction. But there are people who have the opposite problem! Far from displaying excessive emotion, they are unable to express at all! If display of excessive emotion is a baggage, bottling up your emotions within is a quietly ticking time bomb! It is easy to spy the difference between people who express emotions naturally and those who keep them in strict check. While the former are easy-going and happier with a fluidness of movement, the latter are most likely the serious-looking ones, with rigid body language. Those who laugh out loud in happiness and give vent to tears and sobs in grief are able to sort through and resolve their emotions faster. This is especially so in the case of grief or pain. They go through the cycle of ...
