If you google Emotional Quotient (EQ), the search engine giant will throw some very sophisticated, ‘padha likha’ definitions at you. Might just end up challenging your IQ as well. Don’t even get into all that. There might be many complicated things in life; understanding and figuring out simple, doable & smart ways to raise your emotional quotient should not be one of those headaches. Simply put, EQ is your ability to handle all the shit life throws at you, without losing your own calm and composure. Emotions are what makes us human (although there are pets in some homes who display more truer emotions these days than the owners). The word ‘Emotion’ stands for ‘Energy in Motion’ :-Hence there lies huge value in staying truthful about your emotions and using your mind and emotions in your favor and not against your own self  Read More

These are some of the most powerful courage stories out there – real life stories of courage, not the movie-type or the textbook-type.
The kind that make you put your phone down for a second and just think.

Courage gets talked about a lot on stage and in speeches.
But real courage rarely looks like a speech. It looks like ordinary people making one brave choice, quietly, when nobody’s watching closely enough to call it brave.

This post rounds up some of the best examples of courage – courage of all kinds, all real, all documented.

Before you begin reading this, I have a confession to make. I may have indulged in some overthinking before writing this article. I always do, for all my blog posts. And then I fight it. So that’s what this blogpost is about: How to Stop Overthinking & finding ways that actually work. Because let’s face it – sending the brain on a hyperactive overdrive in the wrong direction never helped anyone.

‘How to meditate, increase mindfulness & find God’ is not my Blog or writing. My intellect is too small to even begin to answer this most profound question like the saints who walked this country did. They gave to this world the real meaning of spirituality and the precise understanding of mindfulness, who is God and how to find God through meditation. This blog is their message, their words, their writing. I feel immensely blessed to be their very small instrument as I amplify their message further. This blog is also my very personal spiritual story: the story of my learning on the most beautiful road of spirituality (Not religion). This blog is long but a comprehensive guide to the above question (I promise). You will need 2-3 readings to fully absorb everything that’s written here. So, be slow and thorough to get the most out of it.

I realize that normally when anyone is made to hear or bear a motivational speaker — it runs the risk of becoming too much unwanted ‘Gyaan’. That’s exactly why I promise my people: ‘No Gyaan, Zero Yawn’ Events.

Self-help that actually works. Not just the ‘WHAT TO DO’s of life. But the ‘HOW TO’s as well.

Just a few years into my work as a Motivational Speaker, I clearly realized — being funny is a serious business. In the last 18 years, humor, sarcasm, and storytelling have helped me reach my audience in more incisive ways than I had initially imagined. It requires fearlessness, spontaneity, a crystal understanding of the audience’s emotional state — and much more. I am 18+ now in my work. So censor issues (which I had initially) have also been taken care of. 🙂

Here are 50 extremely funny motivational quotes, jokes, and one-liners — organized by life situation — that are sure to make you ROFL and maybe inspire you at the same time. Because the best kind of motivation is the one you didn’t see coming.
