Happy New Year

Swati · January 1, 2017 · Leave a Comment

happy new year, 2017

Wish you all a very very Happy New Year. May it bring all the prosperity and luck and make your endeavors come true.

I believe New Year begins every single moment. The moment you decide to bring a change in your life is the one defining moment. May it happen every single day in your life and you have the courage to change one thing a day. Make things uncomplicated, relations deep and trustworthy and yourself stronger everyday. Cheers!

Just Gossip Vol. 40 – 10 things to do before embracing New Year

Swati · December 31, 2016 · 8 Comments

Republished from 1stJanuary, 2015

Good Morning Everyone! So, welcome to the last day of 2016. I thought this would be a good time to republish this post. Have a read and let me know what you think about it πŸ™‚

In the spirit with the new year, I had been meaning to do a post tagged #dump10things since quite long. So, finally, here it is – list of 10 things I would like to get rid of at the verge of this transition from the old to new. Do check out my list and do not forget to share yours in the comments below!!

#1 – Old Grudges

High time to let go of the extra baggage with which we all have been burdening ourselves. If a thing can be solved, solve it. If not, just let it go.

#2 – Taking relationships and people for Granted

This is something we all do some or the other time, intentionally or unintentionally. No, that is not absolutely acceptable. I would hate it if someone would just take me for a ride and so would you so why do it to someone else, right?

#3 – Temper

Oh hello, my old friend. I do think it is time to let you go and a new friend, Patience, to welcome in my life. Short temper not only harms your relationships but also your health so beware!

#4 – Laziness

Well, I love a sedentary lifestyle but is it really that good for us all? Do you know it is one of the cardinal sins to be a sloth and not use yourself to the best of your ability. While I would not say slog it out, I would say not to lie around. But, I do love it so πŸ˜€

#5 – Procastination

This is a natural progression from laziness. So, next time you have a thing on your To Do list, do not keep on adding it at the bottom. In fact, finish the task which you are most likely to procrastinate first and you will feel good about it!

#6 – Ignoring yourself

A rule of thumb is that you can never take care of others unless you take care of yourself. So, follow the adage and prioritize yourself. Take 15 minutes off from the day and just pamper yourself. Go for a walk, meditate, head for the salon or simply sit with your thoughts.

#7 – Leading an Unhealthy Life

While laziness is more or less responsible for this point, I would also stress that bad daily routines and unhealthy habits does lead to a lot of laziness as well. You can see that it is a never ending cycle. So, break it now and start it slow!

#8 – Fear

Afraid of heights? Or, afraid of discovering more about yourself? Pick whichever fear is more closer to you and work on it. Travel, write, do whatever you have been thinking you want to do but have been hesitant about it. Nothing will happen unless you get your hands dirty. My boss used to say show me the dirt!

#9 – Negativity

Well, this is one thing which seeps your entire energy and spirit and kills you from inside. So, chuck this out first. Be optimistic and value your assets. In most of the situations, you are more likely to have nothing to lose. So, think about it whenever you are negative about anything.

#10 – Not Traveling

This one is close to my heart. I love to travel and I love to travel locally as opposed to touristy. So, yup, I would love to get a chance to go and travel the world. High on my list are Norway and Iceland. I am just dying to go there.

So, these are my list of 10 things which I would love to improve upon in this course of the new year and soon make changes for my and my family’s good. Now that you have read my list, do not forget to share yours in the comments below. Remember, I am waiting!!

Milestones 2016

Swati · December 30, 2016 · Leave a Comment

housewarming, 2016, new year

Wow! 2016 is already over. Okay, just two days to go. Lot has happened. Many ups and many downs. Lets see.

  1. January started with a bang. A trip to Goa. Memorable. We took a bike on rent. Huge mistake! If you are going, take a car.
  2. February brought a much awaited wedding in the family and another trip to my second favorite place in the world, Vizag. I love the city. if you ever want a small town feel with upscale lifestyle, this is the place to go.
  3. March brought us a trip to Shirdi and Nasik. On a side note, we had almost finalized a property but the deal fell off.
  4. April got me a lot of bad health. This is when I started noticing I could not sit on the floor or squat. If you ever feel any such major changes in the body, rush to the doctor immediately.
  5. June and July were great. We finally got a house and signed the sale of agreement. Mom dad went to Greece and got me a lot of goodies πŸ™‚
  6. August was crazy, rushing behind the workers to finish the house and get it ready for housewarming. I have never ever been so harassed in my life. One of the busiest months of my life culminating in a great and well-attended house warming ceremony. So grateful to everyone who came for us.
  7. September was laid back with our exhaustion still high. Thankfully, it was raining cats and dogs so we really could not get anything else done. And, a 10 days trip to Delhi. It is my longest stay at my parent’s after wedding. Loved it though mum’s health really took a beating since July.
  8. October. Extremely disheartening. Lost an uncle. More than emotional shock, it was shocking to see a hale and hearty person, one of the healthiest people in our family, just lying there. It was my first time and I could not stop crying. I can not even fathom the level of sadness the family must be going through. Shock is the only word to describe what entire family felt.
  9. November. For the first time in my life, I walked up the steps of Tirupati. There are 3500 steps in total spanning over 9 kms. I have never walked that much in my life. Even when we went to Vasihno devi, we took horses. That was an achievement for me, especially considering that I was not really doing well physically. It did take 5.15 hrs though and the usual time is 3-4 hours but I can not climb stairs. It gives me palpitations so I do need rest. And, the best part was I was not tired at all after reaching the destination, not even on the consequent day or days. Pumped me up, really! Do something which you think you can not.
  10. Demonetization. Honestly, I do not think it to be a smart move. No one keeps their assets in cash. Most of the black money is immediately converted into other holdings by the bigger players. Instead, what I can see is the common man suffering. Poor people, daily wage laborers and daily vendors are the worst hit. And, I do not know how it is going to continue. I am so eagerly awaiting the next announcement.
  11. Health is Wealth. Never take your health for granted. Be active and be fit. You never know what will happen to you when. Some things are never under your control. And, when something like that happens, your entire world turns upside down. So, be careful and be healthy again.
  12. And, on a happy note, our woodwork is done and hopefully the first quarter of the new year will see us in the new house. So, yay πŸ™‚

How did 2016 treat you? What all milestones did you achieve this year? Are you resolving anything special for 2017?

Just Gossip Vol. 46 – 2016 : The Year of Milestones

goals 2016

Three months into the New Year, two years in the marriage, thirty years on Earth, seven years of blogging, almost two years of housewife cum entrepreneur. And, now, a year of milestones ahead. So many things to do, so many things to dare!

Blogging more frequently

This was supposed to start from January itself, but then I got lazy and then I got busy. Loads of news coming in the forthcoming months so yeah my time is not all wasted. But, yes, better time management would also help me in maintaining a regular blog schedule. So, let’s hope I ace this in the next quarter.

Fit, Fitter, Fittest

January is always a month well spent and December is a month well decided. The intervening months decide what you actually do in your year. I did start with yoga classes in January and then I got lazy and got off my track. I have all the excuses in the world to avoid a healthy regime – being out of station, being unwell and tomorrow is a better day. At least I have started with eating meals made at home, however they may be, a step towards better health.

Just Gossip Vol. 45 – Turning 30!

Swati · February 1, 2016 · 6 Comments

30th birthday

It has been thirty winters since I came in this world. Wow. Turning 30 is a milestone. Though not as desirable as turning 20 was. I still can not believe I have lived so long.

Life was so different when in school and college. There is just so much that has happened since 2007 when I passed out of college. Life since then has been a measure of milestones and still there is so much to do!

It is always the same with birthdays.

The excitement of the wait, the craziness when the day dawns, the gifts and the wishes and what not and then the day dulls into a monotone and ends. I am always sad by the end of day because of the wait till next year. Any ways, let me just pen down a few thoughts.

Just Gossip Vol. 44 – Begin New Year with New Thoughts

Swati · January 1, 2016 · 1 Comment

happy new year

Hi Dear Reader! Wish you and your loved ones a very happy new year. May 2016 bring you new opportunities and new successes. Yesterday, I had reposted an old post from the first day of 2015. On the same lines, I am again doing a post again with renewed wisdom to help you begin new year with new thoughts.

Hope you relate to them! And, I would also love you to share the same. Any incident, any lesson, anything which turned you into a different person than you are or were!

#1. Never Regret for Past even if you were wrong

There is a reason past remains in the past. Once it is done with, it is out of your life. Yes, it will always define you but living in it or regretting it or wanting to change it is something which is not possible and best avoided.

In fact, if you are truly repentant about something you have done dreadfully wrong (apart from actually murdering someone or inflicting major body harm), there would come a sign sooner or later that would turn everything fine.
