How to find the Blueprint to your Life?

 


You need a Blueprint to build a house, you need a model to build a business, and you need a plan to be successful at a task.

But, have you ever thought what do you need to build up a successful life?

Well, no worries, because it’s never too late to find the blueprint to your life.

One of my favorite author, Vishen Lakhiani, calls it the ‘SOULPRINT’.

The questions is, why do I need a Soulprint?

That’s because when you know your plan of action well, there is nothing in the world stopping you to grow. You know what your soul needs, nothing that anybody says will ever affect you and nothing that anybody does will ever affect you.

You’ll become unbeatable!!

How do we find our soulprint?

It’s pretty easy and people love doing this small exercise!

It’s important that when you do this exercise you should be in a very relaxed state with no disturbances.

Grab a pen and paper before you sit.

Set a timer of 20 minutes on your phone.

‘Start writing all the peaks and lows of your life one by one!’

Yes, that’s pretty much it!

I’ll give you an example:

One of my many lowest point were in school days where when my peers saw me as a misfit hence never treated me well.

One of my highest points were when I successfully organized one of the craziest events in my college.

What about you?

You can mention as many lowest and highest as you want, you better mention all because it’ll help you to understand yourself better.


But, all of this in 20 minutes?

It’s okay if you exceed 20, as time constraint just help you stop all your wonderland land thoughts and be more practical, logical and rational when you write.

After writing these, this where the real part starts:

Consider all your lowest and highest points and find out which value really matters to you.

It’s simple, considering my lowest point where my peers found me misfit and never treated me well, I realized how much COMPASSION mattered to me. Considering my highest point, where organizing a college event gave me one of the biggest kicks in my life until now, I realized how much LEADERSHIP mattered to me in my life.

Like this, after considering all your points, you’ll end up with a list of certain values that matters to you the most and compromising those will give you sorrow and following those will give you the eternal happiness.

These values are different for different people. You might realize some values late in your life but you’ll know them eventually.

Well, we all think that the worst of the situation shouldn’t happen to us. But, now you might know that it is the Universe’s way to tell you who YOU are!  

With that, Congratulations, if you’ve read up the blog till the end. This is because you’re one step closer to knowing yourself better.

That’s all for today!

Thankyou!

Vegetables or Ice-cream?

  I know what just came to your mind reading this blog, ‘Another blog with food in it?’ Well, not this one! What if I ask you, ‘Vegetables or Ice-cream? What will you choose?’ . . . If your answer is vegetables, I must appreciate your understanding and maturity! If your answer is ice-cream, then you might want to give it a thought. This is my all-time favorite question, because it goes beyond logic for me. In words of famous management professor Shri Kumar Roa, it’s a ‘Vegetable Moment’! Let me explain! Many a times in our life, we are stuck at these decisions where we need to choose. This choice is very difficult for us because on one side we have something that we want, we desire and on the other side we have something which we don’t, for an instance, want but we know that it’s the right thing to do.   Isn’t it similar to our childhood days?     I mean we knew vegetables are good for our health and our parents left no chance to make us e...

Plan-Organize-Recreate: If you find it difficult to stay with a good habit for long? You must read this!

Consider this situation: You read or watch something about staying fit then you decide that you’ll go for a run first in the morning. Why does it happen that some don’t even wake up for it, some wake up think about going but somehow the bed doesn’t leave them, some wake up and go for a run for a day but never continue that, some just go for a week and quit, some quit it after 15 days. Not many but a few people who continue this habit long enough to make it their daily lifestyle. They are the fitter ones. Also, those ‘not many but few’ who make such small but effective habits their ‘daily lifestyle’ are undoubtedly extraordinary. These people move forward from mediocrity and set examples for the society. However cheesy but inspiring this line sounds, majority don’t make up to it. Is it really that hard to bring change ourselves for good? Is it that difficult to create a wonderful lifestyle for ourselves? The thing is, wanting for a change is good. But, How do we make it to the destinati...

Plan-Organize-Recreate: How do we Deal with change?

credit: third party image reference If changes in life haunts you and you are least comfortable with changes, then this one is for you! Many of us find it difficult to change according to situations. This is because we are in some way or the other scared of changes. Some will say that, “Oh come on, I am not scared of changes, let it come I’ll face it all”. But, speaking frankly we all get little disturbed if things don’t work as per we expected them to be. Exactly, that’s what happens deep down we all have expectations of how things will go about in our life. But, as soon as some situations change and we find that nothing is going according to how we thought it would be and we resist changing according to it. In simple words, we resist change in our life. Psychiatrist Elizabeth Kubler explains this beautifully in her Kubler-Ross Model. The model explains the five stages of human emotions when something changes abruptly or when human finds it difficult to cope up with the change. The fi...
