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!

Plan-Organize-Recreate: How to think Right for Successful Life

Do you enjoy being with yourselves, ‘Just you’? If you are made to sit in a room alone for 15-minutes and provided with a button to shock yourself, will you shock yourself up or think for 15-minutes? Stay up with your answer! When Timothy Wilson, a Social Psychologist at University of Virginia, U.S. performed a social experiment to check the ‘Thinking period’ of people. Wilson and his team left the participants alone in the lab room in which they could push a button and shock themselves up if they wished to. Even if the participants agreed to pay money to avoid being shocked with electricity before, 67% of men and 25% of women chose to shock themselves up rather than sit quietly and think. This means that 67% of men and 25% of women couldn’t stand their own thought for 15 minutes. This is so sad that people feel bored and uncomfortable with their own thoughts! On the Contrary, some people are over-thinkers to an extent that they dislike themselves for overthinking ov...

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...

Do you pre-define your tasks for the day? If not, then do you get haunted by thinking about where exactly you are heading in Life? Do you get insecure by thinking about what you are doing with your life? Does the future that you imagined yourself in seems impossible for you sometimes? Do you mess up important stuff in your Life? Do you feel lost after spending 4-5 hours on phone? If the answer is ‘YES’ to any one of the question then the solution is “Make your Check-list”. Let me elaborate for you! When World Health Organization reached Atul Gawande, a Harvard Surgeon, for a project to reduce deaths in surgery. Then, Atul and his team studied some high-risk industries like Sky-scrapper construction and the Aviation Industry. Soon they discovered that these industries have Technology, Training and one other most important thing called ‘Checklists’. Subsequently, Atul and his team with the help of some surgeons systematized and standardized the surgery process. That is, The...
