Domino Effect

Hi guy’s, hope you all had a wonderful week, so did I and I’m here to keep my word on blogging once a week!!

So I was reading some stuff about domino effect and at the end of which I really felt this could be closely related to the full spectrum of human emotions.

So to begin, what is Domino Effect?

A chain reaction that occurs when a small change causes a similar change nearby, which then will cause another similar change, and so on in linear sequence.

Didn’t think so much, when you played Dominoes right? Neither did me.

So here’s why I linked that with the human emotions, with a few examples to help you think:

On a clear bright day when all was going well, have you been called by an angry friend and after speaking to him or her, did you feel the same?

Have you ever felt disgusted or annoyed with a person you thought to be good, just because you had a friend call up and do a character assassination?

Do you feel a superior in caste, creed, religion, or fundamentals, when compared to someone else in  your social circle?

If the answer to any of the questions above is yes, then you are undergoing the Domino Effect!!

Relax, we can handle them, let’s figure how?

Identify and control the impact of difficult people on you, so that you can keep the situation from getting worse.

Recognize atleast a few common types of difficult people in your life and learn how to handle these difficult people, if it does not work, learn to avoid them.

Know how to act not react in solving situations so that you can approach your work and life with more confidence and enjoyment.

Effectively handle those that push your buttons including the know-it-all, the intimidator, and the gossiper.

Most of all try to think logically; before you let your emotions erupt from within.

Try and make sure that the wrong people don’t control or sabotage your emotions and intellect, be a reasonable person and reason any situation in your mind, before you reach the verdict.

                       So “Keep your remote, out of reach especially from wrong hands”

“Frustrated – Huh”

                                                                   

Hi folks I’m back, guess it took me a while so let me  not convince you with my usual excuses. So to make it sound better this is the new me trying to Blog at least once a week. Hope this makes a difference to somebody.

So why frustrated? well most of our life we spend being frustrated about something or the other, well atleast I know I am. It could be the job, relationships, situations, and you know what, even God,  unreal ? But it’s true. 

Like always it always happens in the mind and that’s what keeps fascinating me, so I thought we would just take sometime to think about it, who knows maybe we can even figure out how to get out of the mess of frustration and stop cribbing!!!

                                                      WHY Frustration?

Let me try and answer this, 9 out of 10 times it’s of the way we look at our lives. See we have 2 ways of looking at life and its broader picture based on some dreams or hopes that we carry – “Idealistic and Realistic”

So wading through the pile, I’m making some bold statements here by being mean:

There is no such thing as an Idealistic Life, here’s why:

Because it depends on everything being perfect. Life is, at best, messy. It's filled with surprises-both good and bad. If you need the ideal picture of your dream to come into being in order to feel fulfilled, you will never be fulfilled. That doesn't mean you should cast aside your ideal vision. It is useful for helping you to establish goals, find internal motivation, and strive for excellence. However, you also need to temper it. 

Where idealistic dreams expect to be realized immediately, realistic dreams make you appreciate the time it takes them to become a reality. Where idealistic dreams do not tolerate anything less than perfection, realistic dreams leave room for you to be human and imperfect. Where idealistic dreams set you up for disappointment, realistic dreams set you up for success.

                 The man who never made a mistake, never made anything. 

So keep next time you think you made a mistake pick yourself up and say:

                          “What the heck, I’m a realist and this is Life”
