Compare - Despair

Hello! Exams done. Results are declares . Had enough parties . Came out of Hangover . What next ? In medical schools or whichever place of work you are in . The urge to compare is forever. We scream out loud that I am me  , I love the way I am . I am my superhero and what not ! But the end of the day , the same person posts ... My father my hero . My favourite author etc etc . This means somewhere down the line you have somebody you look upto . I know this is a totally different playground , but then plants grow when the soil is fertile and enough water . The same way comparison are human . Comparisons ! Comparison is the thief of joy ! Assessing any area of our lives with our friends , family, stranger or beloveds life is irrelevant and the main ingredient of greed paneer and unhappiness masala!  There is always a whisper or a yell in my head, Look what they have ... I must be a worthless piece of nothing . The whispers are very mean ... I always ask them to go ... I maintain a gratit

Woman in white

Hi people , After a cascade of boring post . This one is straight from my heart and life . Honor yourself for taking a risk, leaning into your discomfort, or just showing up when you really wanted to curl up on the couch at home. You can’t control the outcomes, so praise yourself for putting in the effort and you’ll continue to stay motivated! Many of life’s important outcomes have an element of luck or uncertainty. We can control what we do, but we can’t control market forces or what other people decide.  You may speak up for yourself and get criticism and pushback, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you've done something wrong.  Our brains naturally go to the negative because they are  protection-focused , rather than promotion-focused. To overcome this  bias , you need to deliberately focus on the positives in a situation.  So far so much 

66 to 56 %

Hello Result time is blog time . Thought to put this down. The world, seriously, revolves around your academics in medicine . You slog and slave away for those few measly number  for one whole year . One long, long year . And once the mark sheet finally arrives? There's no joy like it! Unless you get through. It's more like a biryani! The  biryani  takes forever to cook. But the feeling when you take the first bite and all those flavours and spice pop in your mouth... that feeling cannot be described. Every student knows the pains of exams and the weeks leading up to it. You cannot sleep in peace, eat in peace or even watch TV/click selfies in peace as everyone from your teachers to your parents are breathing fire down your neck. But the moment you exit that examination hall... Bliss!  that feeling... Oh that feeling! Ladder is Declining ! The first year in medicine , I scored 66% that was so fulfilling. Next year 60 . This year 56% . But ladies and gentlemen , relativity count
