Learn to be happy when alone

There are times when you want to talk to someone yet you find everyone busy. There are times you have the urge to visit that new restaurant which opened right opposite your home but you have no one to accompany you. There are times when you know you are in need of your best friend, but even though you call them innumerable times, they don't pick up your call.

Yes, It's true. Right now you feel like an unwanted, lonely person. You have no one to turn to, no one with whom you can share your secrets because they are far away living their own life while you are fretting, ranting, raving and may be crying horribly on your bed or behind the closed door of your bedroom. I can see your pain, I can feel it. I have been there. But I am going to tell you what to do when no one's by your side.

First and foremost, learn to be happy when you are alone. I know it may seem weird. You would think, 'How can I be happy when I'm alone?' Of course, you can. 

Nobody teaches us to make friends, it just happens. So why can't you try to be happy when you are alone? You can. Do something that you love to do when no one's around. Remember, when you were kid you would feel shy when someone asked you to sing but behind your closed room, you wouldn't hesitate to sing louder even if your voice got cracked? Do it, right away.

Do you love playing music instrument? Go on! Play it! You can spend hours practicing the instrument and not even realize or feel the isolation of staying alone.  

Are you missing your mom? Do you feel it's been years that you haven't talked even if you just talked two days ago? Rush to your phone, dial the number and call.

If you want to try out that new restaurant, go eat. Yes! I'm not saying for the sake of it. You must try! There's no harm eating alone. Don't feel ashamed or embarrassed if people look at you and pity you. You never know if they must be feeling envy of you because they don't have the courage to eat alone.  

Being alone doesn't mean being lonely. It's up to you how you positively engage yourself. If you will fret over what if's, then you would enter under the category of lonely but if you focus on what you love or your hobby or may be your carrier itself, you may open doors for yourself, you may have never thought.

Self Love And Relationships

When you don't love yourself, you do not appreciate anything in your life including the people and the things you have. Albert Einstein said, "Nothing happens until something moves". The question is, are you willing to make a move and love yourself? Are you willing to accept who you are including the flaws you have? Are you willing to change your life? If yes, then my friend you have come to the right place and I am here to make you fall in love with yourself. You must have noticed that when people love you and you don't receive the love back with equal affection or don't return their love, they simply block you from their life or walk out from your life. And then you feel that nobody loves you, that you are alone, you feel lonely and you think people don't love you. This life of misery continues until you realize that you are the one who was blocking out all the love from outside because you didn't have love within you. What I would like to...

Unfailing Outlook

While you have dreams in your vision to fulfill them,you also see on the other hand how people are living their life. The kind of life you too are dreaming at the moment. Someone's a doctor, musician, singer, astronaut, engineer, architect etc.Perhaps every individual lives up to their dreams as without dreams reality hits us hard.   To live your dream you need to have an ambition,an aim,strength to resist trials and tribulations,undivided focus and hard work.  And all this comes with a cost - Time! Time which keeps ticking at every mini second Time that doesn't stop Time which is the present Time that guides you to make or break your life. Like the wrist watch on your hand completes your style,the same way the time is a constant reminder to you to walk on the pedestal or you'll get hit by a car. But at times,we fail,we feel let down due to circumstances and sometimes hard luck. Whatever the issue of concern may be but it's really important to ha...

Give Yourself First Priority

Often times, we give priority to others. Self-love is considered as being narcissistic and egoistic. When you give love to yourself, you don't become selfish, you are giving yourself the value which no one else will ever give. But people consider both the terms same. Forget about what others think. When you need to put on weight or shed some weight, you are doing that for yourself, not for others, but because you want to truly feel beautiful within.  When you love singing even if your voice cracks, you are doing that because there is no satisfaction to you when you sing in an orderly way. It's just the way you like to sing.  When you dance in a crazy way in your room, you do that for yourself. When you focus on your career first even if it demands others attention, you do that because it gives a sense of purpose to your life. It doesn't mean you are being ambitious or selfish. It's your passion, your joy which you love! So why do you care what people will say...
