The power of self domination

Life gives us a lot to learn. Sometimes from our, sometimes from the mistakes of others. Life is like a roller coaster. The experiences are valleys that make us scream in uncertainty but once we manage to go past them, we are bound to rise to the top. In life, we are influenced by a number of persons, close or far, who have a direct or indirect impact on our personality. Our experiences are nothing but the results of these influences. Once, we give the power of influencing our soul to another person, either we are presented with a gift or a lesson in the end.
Everyone out their tries to build healthy relationships with fellow humans in the form of friendship, love, blood relationships or acquaintances. These people slowly and gradually start to have a deep impact by their behavior, care, love, attention and affection. We feel that we can never survive without a particular person. In short, his/her memories and his/her company start meaning a lot more than our own self’s. We start to genuinely admire the other person and seek his/her attention all the time. It seems life is just revolving around a single soul, and we often fall deep for them. In this journey towards attachment, we often give the other persons, the right to dominate our soul.
He/She then starts dominating our lives, our decisions and our happiness. The kind of dressing, the people we would interact with, the way we should talk, the way we should behave and even the course of our life in the future. The person starts to behave like he is our master, and we are slaves. He even tries to dominate if we would choose a particular course or university on his will. In short, he imposes himself over our life.
But do you feel that anyone should give the other person such a right over his soul that he begins to feel low about his own decisions? I don’t think. But some would name this madness as sacrifices in love. But one should know; love is a pristine feeling away from preconceptions and assumptions and the one who truly loves you would trust you for who you are and never try to impose his/her will upon you. No one who truly loves can make you feel low about your own personality.
If you feel the need of some control over your own soul, then develop the trait of self domination. Instead of giving power to others to decide about your life, give your own personality enough strength and experience to guide you through thick and thin. Self domination makes a person stronger from inside and resistant to outside forces who try to benefit from the weakness of a person. Understand your inner self and stay strong from within, and the world will be at your feet. Never give others much more importance than they deserve and never make your importance less than you want.

How corporate professionalism helped me in learning the art of self-appreciation?

It’s been a long while that I wrote something for myself. Though being a full-time content writer, busy in playing with words all day long, who people think of as a word-wizard- never short of something to write, I have, of late, fell short of words to define what I feel about my passion. I started off as a content writer & still, I am that- it’s not that my passion has faded, it is still strong and growing every day, still I sometimes feel I am not doing much for myself. Writing every day for brands and companies- fuelling their aspirations to grow more and more through advertisements, e-mailers, marketing collaterals, etc., I have somehow felt guilty of not helping myself much with my growth journey. But is it my fault… or is it just situational? I am not the type who shifts the blame to professional or personal condition, so I take it upon myself for my mistake. I have not been much serious about my journey, passion and efforts. But through my realization, I came up wit...

On a path to glory

I have been lost before. in a pool of confusions, that delve inside my head. I have been lost before, in a tide of self-doubt, that crept inside my heart.. I have been lost before, in the guilt of underperforming I have been lost before, at nights with unstoppable mourning Through the years I learned, it does not matter If I am lost, I will surely be found And if no one finds me, I myself will one day walk past this maze To do something worthwhile and to amaze All those who laughed at the time when I was lost All those who created a sense of self-doubt, who made me face this ghost I have learned that the fears are just inside All we have is a beautiful world with opportunities, that is real and is outside So, I rise again from this pool of confusion, Yes I rise again from this guilt and emotion, I know am hard at heart when it comes to the topic of self-achievement But what is an achievement, without a little attitude All I want you is to kno...

Yuun to mein - Hindi Poem

After days of being in solitude and calm, my mind took inspiration from these famous lines and my pen started working to complete a piece in the form of a poem.  ' Yuun to mein tanhaa hi tha safar mein Log judte gye karwaan banta gya….' Kuch mili apni si shaksiyatein Aur unke hi sahare me aage bdhta gaya… Sikha mene bahut iss safar mein… Naa jaane kyu fir bhi me pichadta gya… Jo sath nibhate chale sang mere… Unse hi me zindagi jeena sikhta gya… Ek aasra mil sa gya tha uss karvaan ki chaav mein Aisa laga jaise hu mein samundar ko cheerti naav mein Jaana tha naa mene tab Ki ye karvaan bhi chhalava sa hai Is kaarvaan ka sahara sabko hai Par apna yha koi na hai Khud par shaq to kabhi na tha Kabiliyat par ek anjana sa yakin sat ha Koshish ko apni kamm na karunga Apni manzil ko rahunga me dhundhta Kal ko ye kaarvaan rahe na rahe sang mere Manzil ko apni mein paake rahunga Koi ho ya na ho sang sath dene ko Sukoon ki chaav me ek...
