Everyday thinking about
to start writing, reading, meditating, living the life I always wanted and
every time my days started with leaving these thoughts. Days, months
and years has passed and I have the same thought each day. Procrastination and self-underestimation
being the part of my life, I was confused if I was living a life.
Knowing about Art of
living two years ago, I always wanted to take the course. But finally, I had a
chance to join it and I joined it in March 24, a six days course on “youth
empowerment and skills” by AOL.
I don’t remember
exactly what we did in our first day session. But we, participants got introduced
to a delightful man, who had a good smile, spreading positive vibes among us. He
was our teacher who guided us throughout six days of our workshop.
In those six days, I
learned skills which I always wanted to. I continuously did yoga and meditation
for six days, which I really enjoyed. Realizing some basic facts about life, I
really enjoyed it and to some extend I realized it as well. “Accept and act”
are two words that always comes in my mind. The basic philosophy behind these
two words is simple, accept what happened already, and act accordingly. Another
thing I learned in those six days, “don’t be the football of other’s opinion”.
Listen to other people, take their comments but make your own decisions.
