6 Important Things You Should ALWAYS KEEP Private and Some GOOD Reasons Why

Privacy is Power. 
What people don't know, they can't ruin.

We all want to share our accomplishments and happiness in the world. We want to have someone to listen to our stories of heartbreaks and pain. However, as much as we crave a deep connection with people, there will always be those things that should better remain unsaid, for our own sake. It is not about being secretive - it's about shielding yourself from emotional and sometimes even physical harm by keeping some things in your life private. We have always learnt the fact that there are three things that we should keep private i.e. your love life, your income and your next move. But here I bring you the brief discussion of some more things to help you understand the things better. There is simply no good reason to share the following 6 things with everyone :-

1. Your biggest dreams and goals.

Studies have shown that publicly announcing your dreams and goals can make you less likely to achieve them. Experiencing the joy of letting others know what your plans damage your motivation to actually accomplish them later. Combine this with the judgement and expectations of other people, and you have the perfect recipe of failure. Don't allow this unnecessary stress into your life.

2. Your Private Life.

Letting other people in on the secrets of your personal life will ultimately work against you. In our current world, trust is almost nonexistent. It is truly hard to meet an honest, trustworthy person these days. Why would you share sensitive information with people you don't even know that well ? Keep it to yourself.

3. Your family problems.

We all have family troubles. But our families also have their own way of functioning. No matter if it's a love-hate relationship or something of a different nature, these are private matters. You don't need to involve others in your family business.

4. Your material belongings.

Showing off your material possessions can be easily misread by others. You never know how others may interpret your bragging. There are people out there who would put their life on the line to have what you have. Some of them don't even have access to clean water, while others can barely afford to eat.

5. Your Acts of Kindness.

The world is in desperate need of kindness. But it is wrong to be only kind when others are watching. If you want to help other people, do it for its own sake, not in order to get a pat on the back from society.

6. Your Money.

Talking about your finances is not definitely not a wise move. Your salary shouldn't be known to other people. Asking how much somebody earns shows a lack of manner and respect, and it is definitely an idiotic move to talk about it. Your finances is nobody's business but your's.

Keep in mind that there are people who would be more happy to contribute to your downfall. Do not make it extra easy for them by doing such things. Shield yourself from them by putting these boundaries around you.

Some Special(yet some common) Things to START BELIEVING in yourself AGAIN - PART 5

...to be continued. 13) Accept your emotions without judging them You all know what, you will agree to this. Emotions are very big players, both against and with us. Whenever we experience an uncomfortable feeling, such as sadness, fear or anger, our first instinct is to ignore it, reject it or push it away. And this fair enough, we don’t really want to walk around feeling emotional pain all the time. Emotions give us useful information about our lives. It’s understanding that you don’t need to “control” your emotions. They cannot do any damage to you.  This means allowing your emotions to just be without negatively judging them or trying to change them. 14) Get rid of these 5 toxic beliefs Your beliefs and thoughts shape the perspective of your life. The way you think, interpret and react to a situation depends on your beliefs that matter for you.  But if your beliefs aren’t accurate, they could be negatively affecting you. Here are some beliefs that may sabotage our life: i. The pres

Northern Lights are INCREDIBLE but have you ever heard of the SOUTHERN LIGHTS ?

Southern lights are a thing !!! - The AURORA AUSTRALIS What are the Southern Lights ? Much have been said and done about the northern lights, so much so, that at times travellers have outnumbered the local population of Iceland. But we all seemed to have fo rgotten about its counterpart, Aurora Australis or the Southern Lights, with are just as soul-stirring, if not more. So as winter comes to t he southern hemisphere, these dancing curtains of lights come out to play. Just like their colorful comrades in the north, the Aurora Australis too is an aftermath of the collision of gaseous particles in the earth's atmosphere with electrically charge d particles from the sun. The energy released from this collision takes place the form of the dramatic auroras. Red and Pink color Aurora Australis Green Colored Aurora Australis Why are they so exciting ? While the aurora borealis only offers a green light during the northern light phenomenon, the southern lights entice you with a motley of

BLOG #1 - THE BIG BANG - COSMIC BEGINNINGS

Accepted astrophysical theories posit that at one point there was nothing: no stars, planets or galaxies - not even the space itself. The matter that makes up everything that now exists was concentrated in a single, extremely dense point known as a singularity. The force of gravity in a singularity is so great that the fabric of space time curves in on itself. In an instant known as the big bang, however, the contents of the primordial singularity escaped - and formed the universe.                The big bang is a catchy shorthand for a complex astrophysical theory, backed up with sophisticated calculations. The term was coined in the 1950s by British astronomer Fred Boyle, a proponent of a theory of the universe as a steady state. In fact, Boyle used the term derisively. Though the name stuck, it gives a false impression, making it seem as though the event that unleashed all the energy of the universe almost 14 billion years ago was an explosion. Point of Singularity to the crea
