Why to stop helping others?

Not everything is bad. Same as, not everything is good. There is the good in bad. And there is the bad in good. It’s not necessarily the worst idea to help people. But it’s also neither a great one. https://observer.com/2015/12/why-i-stopped-helping-people-and-you-should-too/amp/

Helping is a kind job, undoubtedly. But the kindness you gather out of your soul to invest in someone else is way more precious to make acknowledge the person, in whom you are about to invest your compassion.

I thoroughly agree that it is not that person’s fault who undergo suffering. At times it’s you who over emphasize a person’s situation on your own in your mind.

You could know that whether you are being kind at a genuine person or not by acknowledging that the person, suffering is further making how many people sufferer out there.

Not helping is a very controversial concept. However, not helping a wrong person throughs light upon the actual issue.

If you think that helping wrong person doesn’t matter because you are doing good at your part. And, this is all what matters. You absolutely wrong!

If you are backing a wrong person even with kindness you are equally responsible for making suffer all those people who are facing troubles created by the person you are serving with compassion.

Compassion is a very powerful backing. It can uplift a person unexpectedly. And, that’s why your compassion towards a right person could work wonders and towards a wrong person can create disaster.

How to stop being hard on yourself? 7 tips to deal with your self-criticism

This is something many of you would relate to. And, this is what I personally still struggle with because I tend to work my better version delicately every single day, I like to reach out to the target, to be an achiever.

But it becomes negative when you need it so bad that this unnecessary pressure turns out to be a negative force in your life. It starts to bring you down and undoubtedly stop providing any kind of service to you.

Our outer world is a reflection of what’s going on within us because we project our own thoughts and feelings onto other people and events. We give it our own meaning. Remember, we can’t change other people, the past, or circumstances out of our control. All we can change is ourselves. Shift your focus back onto yourself and realize that you have the power to change your life. https://tinybuddha.com/blog/stop-being-hard-on-yourself-5-tips-for-learning-life-lessons/

How to stop being hard on yourself?

Firstly, self-criticism happens when you feel like you are not super productive, not giving your 100%, not feeling bad about not being on a growth pace. And, this is what puts that unnecessary guilt on yourself.
For example: if you went on a trip. Once, you are back you feel overwhelmed by all the words you had put off or put on hold for a while.

Secondly, it is so easy for all of us to get distracted by the highlights of the real-life we tend to see on social media. We all feel losing the game of social media at least in one aspect of our life.

This is one among many such reasons which make you beat yourself despite performing quite well in your life.

The reality check is:
Nobody is always gaining, winning, super productive, happy, joyous, supported, appreciated, being promoted, feeling like a show stopper.

It’s just that self-imposed judgment that you should be perfect and growing all the time which keep you from appreciating yourself and make you criticise yourself.

7 tips to deal with your self-criticism

1. Remember! We are our worst critic

Usually, you are the only to you whose criticism should mean something to you until you start being someone who only sees your flaws.

You should not be the one who emphasizes your flaws and blow them like a gigantic thing to deal with.

The solution sits with half in realizing that it’s ok to have a biased perspective about yourself. Because, if you become the destructive critic you could be hard on yourself, unnecessarily

And the other half is in realizing that the other people around you are also not perfect. They are also going through some struggles. Of course, everyone has their own stories and battles to fight with.

Learn to not judge yourself, not judge others. We could all be much happier if we judge less.

2. Understand! You have cycles in your life.

We all go through a cycle of ups and downs. You could have a cold stagnating winter as well as a warm growing summer.

Like earth, you also go through seasons of shedding, budding growing, and blooming.

Honour and embrace the cycles that you are not always going to be super productive, super creative, super amazing all the time. Because that would be like summer all the time.

You have to understand that you have the ups and downs of life. You are going to have the times to be slower to reflect upon yourself. And, kinda take rest a little bit before you show your better version to the world out there.

Understanding this concept is like digging deep into the notion of getting continuously with a cycle of taking birth from the cocoon to growing bigger, larger, and beautiful into a butterfly again and again.

Be honest to embrace the low points in your life as you embrace the high points in your life. Acknowledge that it is all-natural.

3. Ask yourself? What do I have now that I once wished for?

It’s simply remembering that you have achieved something in your life, you have things now that you have once dreamed of having.

By accepting your achievement in this present moment of your life you could build belief in yourself to visualize things today that you wish to possess in the future.

This practice is to remind yourself that you have already accomplished things that you could be proud of. And, you do possess the potential to achieve more because you already have a precedent set for that.

This would help you realize how far you have already come in your life. Everything you have today you never had before. So, there is a big probability of achieving what you don’t have today.

When you focus on the wins, victories you have, it would eventually boost your self-confidence, mood, enthusiasm, zeal, and energies to get going.

A sense of being proud of your accomplishments could make you realize that there is no need to be hard on yourself, there is no need to be your worst self-critic. If you keep trying, you would continue to feel get going in life.

Those were the 3 top tips to not be hard on yourself. Feel free to do what works for you. But do keep in your mind, you should be supportive of yourself in this journey of life rather than putting yourself down. Let others do that for you. And, meanwhile, you stay your best advisor, appreciator.

#61 Q. why we should not conduct mischief? #365DAYSOFSOULSEARCHING

WHAT IS SOUL-SEARCHING?

“A situation does not attract any misfortune of life. It’s the way you perceive the solution does.” And, this is where “soul-searching” backs you with.

ANSWER THIS #61 QUESTION

#61 question
How much courageous you are to conduct mischief?

Know! The level of courage to suffer you need to possess.

” Conducting, mischief is a warning to upcoming suffering.”
-Farheen Dhanjal

Why we should not conduct mischief?

Your act and even thought of conducting mischief is a trait of your malicious intent. And, an intention is something which could ruin all the good work you have done.

It doesn’t matter how compassionate you are until you have a good intent behind it. It doesn’t matter how much you are investing yourself in someone if you intend to get something in return. It doesn’t matter how much you applaud others’ achievements if you all want is to make them work for you.

The mischief begins from the very point when you begin having a malicious intent behind your sweet words, and the kind gestures.

The most common kind of mischief which every one of us must have conducted now and then is not having a pure intent behind our action.

Your no amount of kind act or gesture would reflect upon yourself life as a blessing if you continue to advance someone without an impure intention. And, this is why we should not conduct mischief.

#60 Q. WHY EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON? #365daysofsoulsearching

ANSWER THIS #60 QUESTION

#60 question
How do you find the causes of the situations happening in your life?

Know! The purpose of situations lies in connecting the events of your life.

” Everything happens for something.”
-Farheen Dhanjal

EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON

Just like the very existence of every one of us everything that happens, or occurs is destined to happen for a reason.

At times we all get into that mind trap to search for, look into or acknowledge the reason behind the situations in our life when we ask the Almighty, universe or ourselves that- ‘why me?’
– Despite being high on performance why do I have to come across such hardship in life?
– How much do I have to transform to be prepared enough to attract the blessings for me?
-How long do I have to be patient?

There is nothing bad in looking for the reasons for situations happening to you. But, what’s the point when we are knocking at the wrong door.

Instead of looking for why something is happening to you, look for what’s that something happening to me want me to do of what is happening to me.

Purpose of the life is not to create a questionnaire for the life. But, to acknowledge the direction you are being directed to proceed with.

So, life lies in resolving the matter instead of complicating the situation.

3 TIPS TO CONQUER A WEEK: HOW TO MAKE CHANGES LESS OVERWHELMED?

Balance lives in the present.

When you realize the changes are happening, bring yourself back to the now.
You would be able to handle whatever shake-up the next moment brings when you get to it.

Till then, observe:
– At this moment, you’re still breathing.
– At this moment, you’ve survived.
– At this moment, you’re finding a way to step onto higher ground.
And, this is enough, presently.

3 TIPS TO CONQUER THE WEEK

I. Being present

Slowing down might be called an informal practice of awareness. Informal means like; what we can weave in our everyday life and it doesn’t take any extra time.

What do you have to do is? A slight slowdown in the things you are going through. And, what happens is that your body is connected to your brain, your nervous system is strongly connected to your brain, your spiral code, going down towards your legs.

If you slow down your nerves would put that up to send the signal to the brain, that hey, we are slowing down, we don’t need to stimulate.

Therefrom, you would begin to focus on the small details which were getting overworked in the normal course of the day.

Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space lies our power to choose our response. And, our response lies in our growth and our freedom.

Most of us know what’s needed for a more balanced and grounded intention. But, it becomes difficult to put it into action because most of us don’t know why we want all such things.

The reason behind having balance, intention, the grounded approach is that you don’t want to rush anymore, you want to give a pause, you want to grow gradually.

You’re pause, need to have a reason to direct your mind to practice something in a certain way.

II. Surrender to the process

Inspired by “The Universe has your Back” by Gabrielle Bernstein

ISSUE: YOU SEE THE WORLD THAT YOU HAVE MADE, BUT DO NOT SEE YOURSELF AS THE IMAGE-MAKER

The most mindful response to our life is to take the responsibility for all the consequences and repercussions of the decisions, to make our life worth living.

But the excess of trying to exercise control on our life at times leads to make ourselves believe that:
– We assume ourselves as the generator of our troubles than acknowledging ourselves as the generator of our blessings.
– We ignore our accomplishments and highlight our downfalls.
– We consider ourselves less by self-doubting our proficiency.

FACT: SURRENDER YOUR WILL TO THE POWER OF BLESSINGS, AND RECEIVE MIRACLES

Despite our any amount of disbelief we can not deny the supernatural power, which entrusts us with some meaningful task in this bizarre world.

You just need to surrender your will to the power of blessings.

TO SURRENDER YOUR WILL TO THE POWER OF BLESSINGS

Shift your focus from the discontented notions and look for an optimistic approach:
– Where you feel DOUBT, look for FAITH.
– Where you feel DESPAIR, look for HOPE.
– Where you feel SHADOWS, look for LIGHT.
– Where you feel SADNESS, look for JOY.
– Where you feel DISCORD, look for HARMONY.

All we need to do is tune in the energy of blessings so that we can get into the flow with supportive, loving energy.

Once, we’ll be in alignment with this energy, life becomes a happy dream.

BREAKTHROUGH: KNOW THAT YOU POSSESS THE GENUINE CAPACITY TO TUNE IN TO THE LOVING VIBRATION OF THE UNIVERSE

Remember, that you possess the power to connect to a loving force of energy far beyond your:
– Logical mind, and
– Physical site

III. Journey within

For us to connect with our higher self, we need to fully grow ourselves in the present moment, touch ourselves from thought, anxiety, and worries, and fully embrace the world around us.

By doing this we could strengthen the connection between this reality and the next. And, this is how the inner communication takes place, the intuitions take place, our insight towards ourselves comes into light.

6 Aspects of how mindfulness could be helpful.
(Inspired by book: The Things You Can See Only When You Slow Down by HAEMIN SUNIM)

I. REST…Why Are you So Busy?
When everything around me is moving so fast, I stop and ask, “Is it the world that’s busy, or is it my mind?”

II. MINDFULNESS…Befriend Your Emotions.
Most people are completely absorbed in their emotions and have limited self-awareness. This is probably why people use such expressions as “managing anger” or “overcoming hatred” instead of “befriending your emotion.

III. PASSION…Temper Your Eagerness.
Only when we know how to control the overflowing passion can we work harmoniously and effectively with others. Only then can we effectively share our enthusiasm with those around us.

IV. RELATIONSHIPS…The Art of Maintaining a Good Relationship.
If happiness is what we hope to achieve in our lives, shouldn’t we put more effort into cultivating good relationships with the people around us?

V. THE FUTURE…One Word of Encouragement Can Change the Future.
Some say don’t know what they are looking for in life. This might be because instead of getting in touch with how they feel, they have led their lives according to other people’s expectations.

VI. SPIRITUALITY…We shall approach it with humility.
Faith is overvalued while practice is undervalued. If you wish for peace among different spiritual paths, then practice what you preach.

EMBRACE PEACE!

The secret of not feeling overwhelmed by the changes is alignment: when you know that:
‘you’re on course and doing exactly what you’re supposed to be doing, fulfilling your soul’s intention, your heart’s desire.’

Remember!
When your life is on course with its purpose, you are at your most powerful. And, though you may stumble, you will not fall.

How to be your therapist with CBT: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

First things first!

What is CBT?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy that can help you manage your problems by changing the way you think and behave. It’s a very active, or I may say; a proactive way of dealing with your life issues.

CBT is about more than identifying thought patterns; it is focused on using a wide range of strategies to help people overcome these thoughts. Techniques may include journaling, role-playing, relaxation techniques, and mental distractions. https://www.verywellmind.com/what-is-cognitive-behavior-therapy-2795747

The reason why I am so inclined towards CBT is that you don’t need any therapist for this. And, you could be your therapist as a matter of fact at times with CBT.

I think it’s good not to have anyone at your service all the time to deal with your issues. Be self-sufficient and learn how to work things out in your interest your way by yourself.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is kind of an empowering way of viewing your life when life seems spiraling and not worthy enough to live in.

All the talks that I involve in to perform CBT are very much about what is going on in my life and what is specifically bothering me to do something about it.

It would lead you to perceive the situation in a much better manner than how you were perceiving it earlier when you felt discomfort with the very situation. Because, CBT is hopefully to change your thoughts, approach, vision to have a better experience of your life.

Practice CBT with these 4 steps

#1. How do you know when you need therapy?

The very first thing I want to address is how do you know when you need this therapy, or any sort of help or a mindful approach to life.

It may be either:
– when you feel extremely low from quite a long amount of time, or
– when you had a bad experience, or
– when you feel like saying that you are depressed, or
– when you sense that unhappy mode of yours.

These are some of the times when I feel, okay I need to intervene here because things are not okay. And, I need help, therapy, positive self-talk, a CBT.

#2. Recognize your negative reactions to words things in your life.

Despite knowing all the reasons from the first step that when it calls for therapy. Unfortunately, there is one such situation which doesn’t seem a problem even.

As, in when you feel something to be; by the way, obvious, or natural thing to happen but in reality, it’s the catch, it’s a sign or an intuition for you to reflect upon.

And, that situation is when you have unreasonable reactions to things that are happening to you.

For example;
If there is a situation or you are having a conversation with someone or something happens to you, and you give an overreaction by being extremely triggered, extremely vulnerable, extremely scared, or extremely insecure.

As in if something unpleasant happens to be is a small action but it triggers a huge by proportion in you.

When I experienced my overreaction towards my life I have realized that I have been carrying something like past baggage that has not been dealt with yet. And, is the root cause of my overreactions, my negative reactions towards situations happening to me.

#3. Re-evaluate your assumptions

Once you have dealt with all the situations where you had consciously contributed to making your life uncomfortable to live in.

It’s time to reflect upon your unconscious reactions which trouble you with dealing with your situations. And, that unconscious reaction is assumptions.

I think it’s so good once in a while, or as often as you can to re-evaluate your assumptions.

By doing so, by re-evaluating your assumptions you would learn to deal with the issues in your life as they are in their authentic way when you would not overthink when you would start accepting situations as they are instead of being over-optimistic, or feeling self-pity.

One thing which is very crucial to learn is that ‘excess of everything is bad. Even if your intent is right you can’t justify the situation if your reaction towards the situation in your life is over the top.

And, one more thing which is a matter of concern is that we are more often into the process of learning. And, therefore we forget that we need to maintain a balance between learning and unlearning for which we need to reflect upon our existing assumptions, presumptions, and beliefs.

By re-evaluating your situations you would treat them while they are revising instead of letting them accumulate.

#4. Make mental hygiene a habit

The last step towards your restoration is mental hygiene. You may have routines about cleansing your face, detoxing your body. But, what about your mind, mental health.

For cleaning your mind you need proper mental hygiene kinda thing either in your to-do list or a special time in a day sheerly dedicated to your mental hygiene.

To have mental hygiene make sure you address, issues that are deep-sealed in your mind for which you tend to have a therapist or any kind of external help when you feel like self-help is not sufficient.

It is important to be conscious about mental hygiene is that every one of us is carrying some past baggage, from our childhood. And, as we grow things happen all the time like disheartening, conversations, elections, failures, and heartbreaks which tend to accumulate every single day.

And, unfortunately, the accumulation of such situations has the potential to, subconsciously build a narrative in your mind that could be demeaning for the life you are about to lead and it would even have dire consequences on your mental health.

If you want to get rid of such narratives like, I am not good enough or I am not worthy enough that’s why all these unpleasant situations are happening to me you need to start thinking about your mental hygiene from this very moment.

Those were the 4 steps to how you could perform CBT to be your therapist.

As I always say, do what works for you. But, start exploring yourself today to reach out to new levels as soon as possible.

#59 Q. How to balance give and take? #365daysofsoulsearching

WHAT IS SOUL-SEARCHING?

“A situation does not attract any misfortune of life. It’s the way you perceive the solution does.” And, this is where “soul-searching” backs you with.

ANSWER THIS #59 QUESTION

#59 question
How do you practice giving against whatever you take in a relationship?

Know! The balance you maintain in giving and taking.

” Excess giving makes you alone in a relationship. And, excess taking makes you a parasite in a relationship.”
-Farheen Dhanjal

How to maintain a balance between giving and taking?

The fact is you can’t have a giver without also needing a receiver. While we like to think that giving is pure altruism, it really isn’t. The giver is hoping to get warm fuzzies from the interaction, but this isn’t possible if the receiver pushes away what is being given. When we can’t receive with grace and gratitude, we cause the person who is giving to feel unappreciated and misunderstood. https://iawpwellnesscoach.com/how-to-balance-giving-and-receiving/

Do you think personal or relationship boundaries are harsh? Or, do you feel secure by building boundaries?

When it comes to balancing giving and receiving our mindsets are often unconscious that can get in the way. Before starting with giving and taking you need to know that boundaries play a productive role in giving and taking.

Giving means offering your time, energy, and resources. It is a decision about how you want to spend your time. And, when you do so you are setting parameters about investing yourself into someone else.

Setting boundaries while being a giver is to make a wise decision about not investing yourself in something which is not in alignment with where you want to reach in life.

Whether you are receiving you need to clear a misconception that
– You are not entitled, and
– People who love you are not to be at your service.
– if you want to be a receiver be a giver at times.

You can control giving by building boundaries. And, you can even control receiving by not allowing yourself to always be in search of someone to serve you.

#58 Q. How to be more compassionate? #365daysofsoulsearching

WHAT IS SOUL-SEARCHING?

“A situation does not attract any misfortune of life. It’s the way you perceive the solution does.” And, this is where “soul-searching” backs you with.

ANSWER THIS #58 QUESTION

#58 question
How do you rate your suffering against the suffering of people around you?

Know! Besides yourself, you possess compassion for how many people.

” The day you find yourself suffering the most recognize you have begun to demean all of your blessings.”
-Farheen Dhanjal

How to be more compassionate?

Compassion can be thought of as a mental state or an orientation towards suffering (your own or others’) that includes four components:
– Bringing attention or awareness to recognizing that there is suffering (cognitive)
– Feeling emotionally moved by that suffering (affective)
– Wishing there to be relief from that suffering (intentional)
– A readiness to take action to relieve that suffering (motivational) https://greatergood.berkeley.edu/article/item/six_habits_of_highly_compassionate_people

Compassion is considered sympathetic and concern or the misfortune of others. Simply, put yourself in another person’s shoes and feel the real sense of the situation happening to them.

Some other words which could remind you of falling for a much kinder version of yours could be empathy, understanding, care, concern, warm-heartedness, tenderness, mercy.

Compassion may vary from person to person. For me, being compassionate begins with being conscious enough to be kind, gentle, protective about others’ life status.

Sometimes it could be so frustrating on strangers on street. And, we give compassion very easily to people whom we know all because we might know what hardships of life they are going through.

It’s very important to be compassionate to literally everyone out there. Because we tend to forget that everyone has something which they are probably dealing with.

In order to experience a satisfied and fulfilling living, you have to practice compassion with others along with yourself. Because this could only make you more compassionate.

Without it, we become lonely individuals, facing challenges alone. https://www.forbes.com/sites/rasmushougaard/2020/07/08/four-reasons-why-compassion-is-better-for-humanity-than-empathy/?sh=781600dbd6f9

It is crucial to understand how we affect our surroundings and how our surroundings affect us.

Once you would understand the energy do you have, the impact you could make in your environment you would begin acknowledging your relationship of you with your presence.

There was Japanese research that concluded that water molecules are affected by human consciousness. Saying positive words creates the meticulous structure of water. But, whenever negativity is introduced the energies don’t work constructively.

Words are very powerful! Words affect us. Science has taught us that our bodies are more than 75% of water.

Therefore, when we admit negative energies in the form of words we are literally beating our mental as well as physical well-being.

But, when we distribute positively, compassion, optimism through people in the environment out there we eventually upgrade our environment. And, reflect into the word wholeheartedly.
