Goals and desires are essential in our lives. Only when we keep goals, objectives or desires, we tend to pursue them. As we pursue them, we see that we learn a lot of new things. It opens up new doors of knowledge and wisdom. Sometimes during the pursue of our goal, we come across situations or events that trigger in us new goals or opportunities. This is how life continues and becomes eventful.
During these eventful times while pursuing our material goals, we would also get a chance to realize our life purpose. This life purpose would be the true purpose of our soul.
Let us now look at some of the ways by which we can focus on our goals :

Spirituality and Religion both exists in our society. But do we all know what it stands for?
Some people say that both are the same. Well in this post I would like to highlight my viewpoints on both these topics.
I would also like to highlight some differences between both and also my opinion on which can be better.
Here I wouldn't be going into the specifics of any religion because I believe all religions are for the good of humanity.
Please note that these are just my personal opinions based on my knowledge and experience and if you feel you disagree with me then you are always free to comment. I would only be happy to respond to your queries.
Let us accept the great messages offered by our religions and also take some steps to understand and learn Spirituality.
Spirituality is not only for the grown-ups but for any young person who likes to learn and explore more on these topics.
There is no question of comparison between religions on which is better because all religions are great and gives us the knowledge about God. The greatness of Spirituality and Religion should not be belittled by insignificant arguments or judgements between people of different faiths.
We as Indians should be proud of our rich culture and the coexistence of people of different religion, caste, languages etc.

Patience is a quality that is as important as having the right skills or the talent. Many times we may have seen people doing very well at the beginning and fail to capitalize on the great start that they have displayed. Let us look at few examples and scenarios by which we can understand that being Patient is a very important quality that needs to be inculcated in our lives.
MS Dhoni, also known as Captain Cool is one of the most successful batsman and a captain for Team India. There is no question regarding his skill as a captain, batsman and as a wicketkeeper. However, there is an important quality in him that sets him apart from the rest of the players. What is that important quality ? He is always patient in his approach during the game. Even if India is in a tight situation during the final overs, you would see MS Dhoni relaxed, calm and composed. Even some players from the best teams crumble under pressure. In cricket and for any other sport, sometimes what differentiates between good players and great players is the ability to become patient and stay calm under pressure. In tennis sometimes it is that rare double fault due to lack of focus and patience that tilt a match in a player's favour. Even in football, we get to see last minute goals that change the fortunes of many teams.
Even during family relationships, we need to make sure we hear what our partner has to say to us without jumping into conclusions. When we listen to our partner patiently, we also give them a feeling that they are being cared for and that their opinion is being valued. The same applies to our children. Patiently listening to the views of our children would give them the feeling of being important and a confidence to express openly.
Let us consider another scenario where an employee of an organization works very hard. He puts in lot of extra effort in his tasks and makes sure that he delivers quality work. For 11 consecutive months he did great work. On the final month of the year he starts losing his patience to hold on to the good work that he had done till that time. His mind starts to drift into other modes of activities like not taking up much work, leaving early to home, chatting with his team mates, regularly looking at his mobile updates, missing important meetings etc.
After the completion of the yearly appraisal, this employee ends up getting average ratings and thereby a limited salary increment. All the good work that he did for the past 11 months went unnoticed and his average performance that he had given in the last 1 month alone became the main factor of his yearly performance ratings.
If this person had been a little more patient and continued with the same kind of performance for 1 more month, things would have been different. This is the problem faced by some people. They start very well and within few weeks or months they lose their focus and patience and then experience a performance decline. Being patient at the most critical moments of life becomes noticed and recognized always.
During situations when there is a some serious argument happening between two people, a person who stays calm and quiet would be in a better position to improve the situation than a person who prefers to fight over it. Here I'm not saying that we should always remain quiet and not go for any arguments. We need to assess the situation wisely and speak when it is really required. In all other cases, it is better to let go and focus on our matters.
People likes a person who stays calm at trying circumstances. Such a person wins the respect of everyone. Even a single person in the group has the potential to improve the positivity of the whole group by demonstrating his ability to be patient, calm and composed. Sometimes being patient gives you the extra time to assess the situation better and come out with a better solution. The above are some of the examples and scenarios that demonstrates that patience is indeed a powerful quality to acquire.

Time is a valuable resource in our life. A person who makes the best use of time is bound to achieve great things in life. The time taken to complete a particular task can vary from a person to person depending on the skills and abilities of the person. Even for the same person, the same task can be done in few hours, days, or even months based on the level of commitment, perseverance, discipline, and procrastination.
When there is a requirement to do a critical job that involves the sake of the nation, society, organizations, governing bodies etc, it is always essential to assign the work to a person skilled in that particular profession. This is the reason why we say that when we choose a person for a critical job we should be unbiased in our selection. Recommendations and reservations should not be encouraged in such cases. We need the best people to do the work for our society, organization, nation, and world. Only then we would see our nation and this world progressing. Along with the right skills and talent, the belief system also comes into play. The person needs to own the responsibility and believe in his mind that he is the best person to do this task successfully in the given amount of time.
Now let us come to the case of making the best use of time. If we would like to excel in any task that we are asked to do, we need to have the following qualities :

Kids are full of energy and enthusiasm. Sometimes you wonder how do they maintain their energy levels even after playing for many hours. During hectic work schedules, if you would like to take a break and get some fresh dose of energy, then playing with kids is a very good option.
Some of you may be surprised at how kids can be a source of energy. There might be some people who stay away from kids when they are focussing on something very serious. They believe that being with kids during that time is something like asking for more trouble. Well, the energy levels of babies and also small kids are very pure and steady.
Since babies and kids are less exposed to the daily activities of the material world, their mind is still stable and steady. The number of unwanted thoughts in kids is very less. As a result, there are not many mental blocks or any sort of energetic blocks when it comes to kids. Due to these reasons the Aura around a child is also very pure and without any negative vibration. Aura is an energy field around a person. We Human Beings are energy beings and mainly consist of electromagnetic energy. Aura is another layer on top of our energy body. Those people who vibrate with positivity, happiness and love always have a pure Aura around them. Kids are known to have a pure Aura around them as they are less impacted towards negativity.
These are some of the reasons which suggest that kids are a source of energy as their energy vibrations are pure. Try to hold a baby regularly whenever you get the chance. Apart from that, you also feel very relaxed when you converse with kids. Usually, kids think in a straightforward way. Even though their knowledge is limited, it is interesting to notice how they think and speak on a particular topic. Try to motivate kids whenever you get a chance. Kids like love and support very much. They develop into a promising person once they are encouraged and supported. Today's kids are tomorrow's leaders. It is our responsibility to bring the best out of each child.

I truly believe we all have a sleeping giant within us. Each of us has a talent, a gift, our own bit of genius just waiting to be tapped. It might be a talent for art or music... a special way of relating to the ones you love. It might be a genius for selling or innovating.... I choose to believe that our Creator doesn't play favorites, that we've all been created unique, but with equal opportunities for experiencing life to the fullest.
- Tony Robbins
Every Human Being is blessed with Infinite abilities and Unlimited capabilities. It is our responsibility to uncover the gifts that we are blessed with, in our life. There are certain skills on which a person has a better taste and is more talented.
How do we realize our hidden talents and skills? At a very young age, it is the responsibility of the parent to observe their child very closely and make them participate in various activities. The parents need to encourage their children and not criticize them for their mistakes or failures. Each failure teaches a new experience. Facing failures should not be a problem at all. The important point is that, the child needs to rise up from failures and setbacks and come back stronger.
As a person progresses in his life, he would start noticing that there are certain subjects on which the person has better interest. The brain has 2 sides. The left side is the logical part which involves skills related to aptitude, reasoning, analysis, calculation etc. The right side of the brain is the creative part which involves creative skills like reading, writing, exploring, discovering etc. Some people are more towards the logical type of skills whereas some others are more towards the creative aspects. Then there is a certain section of the people who are involved in both these types of skills.
There are some people who took up a profession by chance and later realized that they are not suitable for it. There are 2 options for such people. They need to closely introspect their performance in their current role and check if they are really unsuitable as they think. Many great people have come out to be successful in their life after seeing many failures and setbacks in their life. These people have used these failures as learning lessons in their journey of life or career. So it is always good to introspect your performance regularly if you feel that you are not suitable for something. Another option is to take up some hobby or a passion in parallel and work on them. Who knows, sometimes this hobby or passion can later turn out to be a full-time profession in your real life. The idea is to show passion, commitment, persistence and perseverance in whatever you take up. Just realize that your mind is very powerful indeed. If you focus with your mind on something, there is a huge flow of energy going into that activity. A focused mind with undivided attention will surely help you to give your best on that particular task.
Practices like Yoga, Pranayama, Meditation helps you to connect with your inner self and thereby realize your true passion, purpose and mission in life. Your inner self is full of peace, bliss, happiness and joy. Connecting with this true self will give you new insights and direction in your journey of life.

Time is a measurement that is constructed based on the rotation of the earth around it's axis and also by the revolution of the earth around the sun.
For many years humans have observed that the time taken for rotation of the earth is almost the same. This is observed by the time the sun rises. Similarly, the time it takes for the earth to revolve around the sun is also a constant. This pattern studied by humans for many years gave rise to the man-made construct called time.
Time is the same logical concept throughout the earth. There are different time zones based on the location and region of the earth. While one portion of the earth receives the daylight there is another portion of the earth receiving the moonlight at the same time.
Time is not a concept that is the same at the Universal level. The time that we know is only specific to the laws of nature within the earth. If you move to another planet, the pattern of time becomes completely different from the pattern that we are aware of. This is because different planets have different times length of rotation and revolution. To understand this, let us consider 2 planets A and B. A person living on planet A will consider the time at planet B only with respect to the time at planet A. Similarly, a person living on planet B would measure the time of planet A only with respect to the time on planet B.
1 day of time within a planet of a higher dimension can correspond to many days, months or even years within the planet earth. Such information can be seen in religious texts which speak of the big difference of time between the higher dimensions and the lower dimensions of the Universe. This can also mean that the stars we see during the nighttime are actually the state of the stars many years back. The reason for this is that the light energy from the stars can takes years of time to reach our naked eyes. Even the light energy from the sun takes 8 minutes to reach our eyes.

Life is a wonderful gift given to us by God. Life becomes more blissful and joyful when we connect with loving people always. We need not always be with the same set of people throughout our life. Sometimes we get a chance to know and interact with new people as part of our education, job, business, hobbies, passion etc.
Our family is the first and the best connection that we have in our life. It is good that we nurture this relationship for a long period. We need to make sure that we provide joy, love, happiness and support to our family members. Apart from our family or relatives, our friends also do play a major role in our life. Some of these friends go on to become a part of our life for many years. Whenever we have any concerns or issues in our life we look upon these friends to share our feelings with.
Why do we see some friends continue to be part of our life for many years whereas some others just move out of our lives and never appear again? We human beings are energetic beings. We vibrate at a particular frequency of emotions. Sometimes when we are very happy we vibrate in higher frequencies of emotions. Whereas on some other times when we are feeling very low we vibrate at lower frequencies of emotions.
Now, what are these higher and lower frequency states? Feelings of love, peace, happiness, joy, love, gratitude and forgiveness are said to be in higher frequency levels. These feelings ensure that there is proper energy flow throughout our bodies. Some of the lower frequency states are feelings of worry, anxiety, fear, anger, stress, guilt and shame. These lower frequency states create mental and energetic blocks within our bodies. These energetic blocks are harmful and can be the cause of negative situations in our life.
Now coming back to our discussion, there are some people who regularly vibrate with positivity whereas there are some people who regularly vibrate with negativity. Similar kinds of people gets along with each other. Like frequencies always attract each other. This is the reason why a person who consistently vibrates with a particular frequency always attracts people who vibrate at that frequency. This is also the reason why we see successful people become more successful in their life. The kind of friendship that successful people make are people who have achieved success in their respective lives. Some other examples are Film stars who look to marry within the film world itself. Doctors look to marry someone from the same profession itself. A Software Engineer prefers to marry from the same profession. The reason behind this could be to match the thought patterns, wavelength and also the frequency of vibrations.
We also see people with similar interests coming together and sharing ideas, hobbies, passion etc. There are many clubs, platforms where people with similar interests get to join and get the chance to connect with like-minded people.
Such groups or teams having similar goals, objectives and interests when they collaborate together they achieve good things together. This the reason why teamwork is given more importance than individual brilliance in life. A team that shares and gets along well can achieve things faster than a highly intelligent person.
