Lets NOT Screw Up The Next Eleven Months

I have always considered January a trial month for all the awesomeness we have planned for the rest of the year. It could be for all the list of resolutions or simply if we have decided to change a few things in our day-to-day life to make our lives happy this year. Some may consider this as a huge waste of 31 days, but I actually think you can afford it. It buys you that extra time just to put some things in perspective. 


Sometimes in the spell of the moment, you may make some overwhelming plans that may not be feasible, now is the time to take action on those things. Now in this post what I want to talk about is, if in case you did screw-up (I already screwed up 👀), it is not the end of the world and you need not ruin your glorious next eleven months. 

Now, you may wonder what timing for a post like this; it is not a start of the month for a quick fixation like, hurrah! You are allowed to screw up 31 days before you really really get started, nor it the end of the month, if you are more of that sort of person who will do something about the bomb only after it has exploded :) I think we are exactly at the right time to satisfy both ends, so you do not feel you have yet again lost the game even before the end of the month. 

I am just going to list THREE things that can help you just calm down and get a grip of the year. I am no expert on the subject, infact I am the mother of all screw-ups, so these are just few things I am experimenting and I believe they are working out.

1) Make realistic plans and always make room for Plan B, I'd say Plan C as well 

Now, there is nothing wrong in pushing yourself to extreme limits sometimes, often that is exactly what is required, but do stop for a moment and contemplate, are the plans realistic? Don't try to achieve everything at once, no matter how simple it may seem, for example - you decide to become a morning person and somehow some days you just can't open those eyes, let alone doing something productive in the mornings, you do not need to feel bad about it. Allow yourself some cheat days and infact enjoy those cheat days.

2) Appreciate Life big time

The whole point is to have a good time and be happy through the year. Life is no job that requires achieving targets, though it is a lot of work. Appreciate yourself and life when there are some lovely moments through the day. Some days may be very bad from your point of view, but trust me there is always something wonderful each day, and we do not care to appreciate it. It can be something as small as your favorite song just started playing when you switched on the radio. Well, I love when that happens, its a sweet surprise, I know we all have our gadgets and we can play whatever we wish, any time and how many ever times we want to; however, that little surprise definitely makes you feel good.

3) Let it go

With all the plan A, B and C's you may still screw up. Just let it go... LET IT GO. Going crazy over something that did not work quite right is not going to do you any good. So leave it there, and move on.

Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum Review

I have always liked a good Lotus product every now and then. Sometime during the start of winters I decided to include serums in my skincare routine, now a dry skin baby like me needs to think a couple of times before adding something new to my skincare routine so as to not further dry my skin and that too in winters. I started using the  Lotus Professional Phyto-Rx Whitening & Brightening Serum from December last year and I was using it on alternate days and night, as I do not believe using something new regularly just to see how my skin is reacting in the first few days. I picked this product from the Nykaa winter sale and managed to get a good discount as well. The MRP is INR 545 for 30ml and usually you do end up getting discount of 20-25% on Nykaa. Though, it is not a super pricey product, discounts always help while purchasing a "never tried before" product. I was waiting to use it for a month or so, before I could share my two cents on it. Now abou...

VLCC Pista Massage Cream Review

For good number of years, I have been using the facial kits by VLCC, it is a good last minute self-facial treat and does the job of putting up a sublime glow to your face without spending an hour or two at the salon. I thought to give this product   a try , as I was looking for a massage cream, which I can include in my weekend pamper sessions. I did not want a high-end brand or an expensive product because sometimes I just like a simple scrub, face wash, face pack combination of pamper sesh' for my face and thats it! About the packaging and price It is a 50g massage cream which retails for Rs. 260/-. It is not a new product by VLCC and has been in the market for a while. It comes in a plastic jar and is well sealed. In terms of packaging it is nothing fancy and it has a plastic covering with all the details of the ingredients, price, expiry date and method of usage.  About the product and usage The cream is green in color and has a slightl...

Things I Am Loving Lately...

Google Image Since, it is a month of love and things related to love, I thought why not throw in a post about things I've been loving lately... Well, I know the whole buzz about Valentines' Day and all the days preceding to it are not so much related about loving "things", so much as loving a person or people or even yourself. But, I am no expert on the subject to write anything lovey-dovey, so I will do what I think I know best, talk about things I have loved recently. Reading I won't classify myself to be a voracious reader or anything close to that, but every now and then, I enjoy a good book. Reading is a great way to realize how simple life can be, without all the complexities of the wifi and social media. I read a book by Sudha Murty - Wise And Otherwise, it was a good start to begin my reading game again, as it is a compilation of 51 short stories, mostly based on her experience and observations about day to day life. I am currently readin...
