"The Key to Success".

Life is meaningless without milestones.
Life is meaningless without slumps.
And one continuously tries to find the "Key to success".

In the past 22 years of my life, I have always waited to know the key to success. 
As a part of process of becoming an adult (which I am still not haha), some questions popped up in my very free mind. 

Q.1.) Is there really a key?
It will finally open the lock and I shall live happily ever after!! 
Somehow that happens only in fairy-tales. 

Q.2.) Sharma Ji's son is so successful! Did he find the key?
I will use it for my lock too!!
If such questions pop up in your mind too, read my episode - Mistake #1

Somehow nobody else's key fits in mine.
Every lock has a different key!
Every problem has a different interpretation.
Every solution has a perspective.

Finding my own key to success which fits my life, my goals. 
That is what keeps me engaged.

Only after recollecting all the hits and drops,
I have come to a conclusion, that
In the constant search of Who am I, and the constant search of the key,
the word CONSTANT never caught my sight.
Consistency is my "key to success".
Trial and error is what takes me to either a milestone or a slump.

There is neither any fairy-tale nor any Sharma Ji.
All I got to do is keep moving.
Keep trying and keep erroring(that's not even a word, but it's okay.)
Trying can bring about greatness,
and errors will bring learning.

A win win situation indeed!

    My dear Aishwarya,
    Accepting life ,As it is,is the key to success. I think so.This does not mean that l think one's travel towards progress and to try for that again and again is useless .One must do his best to make him better in all things.One must try to get all his capacities may come out and make him an ideal.In spite of these trials,One must be sure that each and every person in this world os a seperate unit of lock and every lock has it's own key.This veriety is a magic creation of God and that makes the world lovely.
    Though we know we must upgrade ourselves,we must accept our life ,As it is,must not compare us with others .This satisfaction and belief is the key to success.
    Aajjee.

Who am I?

Image
This question is a tough one. Who am I?  Not just for me I am sure.  When will I know? Will I ever know? or never know? Maybe I can start with the basics. I am Aishwarya and I am from India. I am currently living in a small town named Derby in England for my masters. Pursuing Dance Movement Psychotherapy. Sounds interesting? Indeed it is! The journey of knowing who I am is difficult. Its a confusion, hence I prefer to stick to the basics! Although I want to know who I am, maybe this is the way I can find?  Am I the only one who doesn't know the answer to the above question?  Maybe I am what my career is.. no, maybe I am what my demographics is..no,. maybe I am what my future is? Maybe I am what this blog is? I know. A lot of question marks. Its a fog out there.  For every human being who wants to know who you are, how about taking it slowly.. one step at a time. I am here to hold your hand. Because believe me, nobody knows..who they are! Picture from: https://m

Mistake #1

Image
Life is incomplete without mistakes. Some mistakes are healthy. Some still give me nightmares. However each one of them gave me some outlook. Some learning. Some knowledge. Taking about a mistake, Its still a part of my personality in some bits and corners.  Comparing.  Comparing myself with the world. Comparing myself with others. Comparing myself with 'ideal' norms. In this question of 'Who am I?', this mistake I know I make. I have compared myself to my sibling, to my girl friends, to my boy friends, to my colleagues. I wanted to be powerful like my brother. I wanted to be girly like her in late childhood. Smart in my 10th and 12th grade like many others in school. Thin like many others in teenage. Mature like a few in adulthood. I have tried being all of them. And every time I tried, I failed and gave myself a hard time. Beat myself to it. Sometimes still do.  In the situation, when i feel the need to compare myself to anyone.  I don't realize t

Youngster's deserve respect too!

Image
Since i was born, I have heard these lines. "Always respect your elders" "Always show respect to the elderly" We Indians have certain values that are taught to the kids in early years.  This is one of them. I always did so.  No matter what.  Every young kid I believe, has known this and has to abide by it without a word.  But Sometimes, I got disrespected and I couldn't speak a word about it.  I am sure every youngster goes through this once or twice in their life. "It is right because someone elder said so". For Eg: Youngsters most of the times give up their seat for the elder people. Nobody minds doing that. Because there is empathy.  But when a man changes his seat without consent to sit beside his relative, even when you have that seat booked in advance, and when asked for it, the man says "youngsters have no respect for elder's these days" that's tolerating. (I booked that seat in adv
