How to choose a pet🐾

Getting a pet is all fun and games until you face the reality check. Taking good care of your new family member’s needs, locating all the nearby pet-shops, fetching all the supplies, planning daily meals, googling what your pet can eat, regular visits to a vet, cleaning pee & poop, taking out time DAILY for playing with your pet, can end up being so exhausting as well as overwhelming.

A pet is a cute little bundle of joy that lights up your whole house. They’re the real companions, the BFFs and eventually become our soulmates.

So if you’ve made up your mind and you’re thinking of getting a pet then i can help you to choose a pet according to your requirements and personality.

Dog 🐶

Ever heard the saying, “A dog is a man’s best friend”?? Okay so one of the most practical reasons of having a dog as a pet is that they guard your home & your loved ones. They’re extremely loving creatures. Dogs are very attentive and with time & experience you can teach them tricks as well as commands. Dogs keep you healthy & active as they’re very playful. They’re the best stress reliever. You never feel alone when you have a dog at your home.

Cat🐱

Cats are the total fur-balls. Petting a cat has a positive calming effect and it is believed that cats help in reducing stress levels. Their way of showing affection is very different from the dogs and because of this reason some people think that cats are not affectionate. The kinda stay in their own zone and cats are not much playful too. Hair-shedding problem exists with cats too. Salon & Spa sessions are somehow unavoidable.

Fish🐠

Fish aquariums look so aesthetically pleasing and instantly make our home look better. Fishes make a wonderful pet for those people who have limited space or a compact house. Lesser maintenance is sufficient as you don’t have to bother about frequent showers, nail clipping sessions or daily hair combing requirement. Apart from that, in some cultures, it is believed that keeping fish aquariums at home, brings good luck.

Turtle 🐢

In Hindu mythology it is written that the giant turtle Kurma is an avatar of  Lord Vishnu. It is also believed that the turtle take the burden of whole world. People keep them in the house because of their longevity, they have the average life span of 50 to 60 years. They require less space. But the maintenance requirements are much higher than fishes. They are messy eaters and produce a lot of waste. As they keep on moving around, on the floor, so it becomes very difficult to trace and look out for them.

Birds🦜

Birds are very attractive & interesting to keep around. Parrots can be taught different commands and they repeat after you too. There is nothing as soothing as the chirping sparrows. They are very low maintenance. It’s quite inexpensive to feed them. They take very little space. Birds are extremely intelligent. But according to my personal opinion, I don’t prefer keeping birds in cages. They’re meant to fly high.

So guys that’s my take on choosing the pet according to your personality. I hope you enjoyed reading it.

Take care. Bbye 🦋

How to improve your communication skills🗣

Communication skills basically include all the aspects of sharing info from one person to another. But I’ve noticed that most of the people think that good communication skills are required only at workplace or in some kind of professional setup. But that’s not true. Good communication is the basis of a healthy relationship too.

So if you want to improve your communication skills then take following points into consideration.

  1. Use the language that makes you feel comfortable. This will help you to communicate effectively & you can put across your point easily.
  2. Watch your tone while you’re expressing your feelings or opinions.
  1. Talk slowly. Breathe in breathe out. Take time to think & then speak. This will help you to communicate in a better way.
  1. Stay confident. Respect your thoughts & opinions.
  2. Read as much as you can. It’ll help you to improve your vocabulary.
  3. Whenever it’s appropriate, SMILE 😊.
  4. Look into people’s eyes. This will improve your confidence & body language.
  5. Always communicate with Positive intentions.

I hope these points will help you in some way.

Say GOODBYE to Exam Phobia🤓

👩🏻‍🎓👨🏻‍🎓Examophobia arrives @ every exam-season to haunt our lives. Most of us suffer from some sort of anxiety while we prepare for exams or sit in an examination hall.

When exams arrive, we become extremely worried and make plans about how to study, how to perform better and get good grades. Sometimes the situation gets so messy that we simply find ourselves stuck in a really bad situation with no possible way to get out.

  • HOW TO PREPARE WELL FOR AN EXAMINATION:-
  • Some of these tips can help you to deal with examophobia & get good grades without compromising your overall mental health.
      • Set a study time table & stick to it religiously. After completing one assignment mark it as “DONE”✅ on your Time-Table.
      Set a study time that suits your requirements. It hardly matters if you study late at night or wake up early in the morning.
      Stay focused & avoid all kind of distractions.
      Take good care of your diet. Reduce your daily salt & sugar intake. Avoid junk, oily & spicy food as much as you can. Drink coconut water daily. Include almonds in your diet too.
      Meditate for 10 minutes daily. You can use different apps available for this purpose. Try ‘Headspace’ or ‘Calm’ app.
      Take short breaks while studying. I’d suggest you to take 10 minutes short break after every one hour.
      Sleep well. At least take short naps if you can sleep at a stretch due to targets or anxiety.
      Stay away from social media as much as you can.
      You can always rely on your study buddies & family for all the support you need.

    In a nut shell, there are actually no secrets to success. Just manage your time well, work hard yet smart & lastly learn from your mistakes.

    All the very best 👍🏼😃

    Journey from a Night Owl to an Early Bird.

    When it comes to bedtime, is it better to be a night owl 🦉 or an early birdie 🐦!? This question bugged me almost all my life.

    So there are two kinds of sleepers in this world. Night owls who are at their best in the evening and go to bed very late & early risers who subscribe to “Early-to-bed & Early-to-Rise” lifestyle.

    Personally I’ve always preferred being a night owl rather than waking up early in the morning. I never liked the idea of getting up so early. Even the thought of it used to make me so anxious.

    I still remember how traumatic it used to get, when we friends had to go on a morning hiking 🥾 trip or I had to appear for some competitive exam. Even a work meeting with an early call time used to give me panic attack. From nausea to headaches, ughhhhhh.. it was the worst feeling ever.

    But from past 6-7 months my lifestyle has changed drastically. I’ve consciously started following a disciplined routine. Now I can’t sleep after 7 am. I usually wake up by 5:30. Then I drink 2 tall glasses of water, do my morning skincare regimen, feed my dog & then we go for a morning run. By the time it’s 9 am I’m almost done with all the tasks & feel very energetic for the whole day’s work.

    This change didn’t happen overnight. Long story short, I was really stressed out due to some office issues, started putting on unhealthy weight, became the grumpiest person ever & what not.

    I started reading some self-help motivational books & realised that waking up early could be the remedy I’m looking for!

    Trust me, it really helped. As I’m up early, I complete most of the tasks before time. I get enough time for morning run, meditation & yoga. My mood stays chirpy throughout the day. I’m totally loving this lifestyle change that I made.🙂

    Magical Horoscopes🔮

    Whenever I’m going through a good phase in my life, I don’t give a damn about what my horoscope says. But the tables turn when things get a little bit harder. When times get rough and boy, they do they get really rough sometimes we need some magical reminders 📩 to bring us back to life. Because when I get in troubles, if the reading says that I am in a lucky day, I can think my troubles are just some kind of mistakes, and if the reading says that I am in the unlucky day, I can think that my troubles are just because of my bad luck. Either ways, I can know the reason of my troubles.

    Generally I enjoy fortune readings! My mornings start with a fresh dose of “Daily Horoscope” from this random app I have downloaded on my phone.

    Recently I realised that I’ve become so addicted to these readings that if I fail to read it then I feel something is missing throughout my day. This habit is so engrossing that I feel like I’m being enslaved. So I’m trying to reduce my level of addiction to fortune readings.

    Do you read horoscopes too?

    What’s your Zodiac sign? Btw I’m a Capricorn 🙃🔮♑️✨
