Learn from a child. Be like a child.

Happy Children’s Day!! Kids, they possess natural curiosity, creativity, authenticity, and an innate ability to find joy in simple things. There are such several valuable lessons that can be learned by observing and interacting with them. As we grow older, we need to try to reconnect with some of these innate qualities and integrate them into us, to lead a more fulfilling and balanced life. One important quality I want to convey here is curiosity and openness. To be an authentic seeker, we need to maintain a childlike openness, with genuine curiosity and a receptive mind.

Self-awareness is a key to breaking this cycle, as it allows you to recognize, and challenge negative thoughts and behaviours, fostering personal growth and a more positive mindset. Along with self-awareness, self-improvement is very much important, developing

Learn, Unlearn, Relearn

  Learn, Unlearn, Relearn We might have heard alot about how important it is to be a consistent learner for being successful. But; Just not learning; it is in fact very important to unlearn and relearn. Unlearning is the secret sauce of personal growth. It clears space for new perspectives, ideas, and skills. When we embrace it, we can find ourselves evolving faster than ever. In this learning process, being agile and authentic has its own significance and makes us different from others. If we could be like a curious little child, we can absorb things and learn from anything, anyone, anywhere and anytime. Examples: [Projector teaches us to cast our ideas and goals onto a larger screen of life. It shares our visions, enlightening others and projecting a positive impact. Just like adjusting focus on a projector, clarity in our goals is key to a successful outcome.] [Lizards remind us of adaptability. They can change color to blend in or stand out, showcasing the importance of adjusting t
