What’s your bucket list?

This is a question that I answered on Quora. It was indeed a good answer!

After seeing the movie—- The Bucket List, I got so damn inspired that I charted out my own bucket list, one that could be completed in one go or the items on the list could be checked off as I move along with my life. I chose the latter one as the former one would leave me nowhere with its fast-paced movement of goal-achievements. I wanted to savour my list and obviously, I wasn’t THAT free/wela/aged in life to do it one go.
Bucket lists are usually created for fun but can also be created with a purpose. A purpose to live life purposefully. It helps me to look forward to something. To be alive. To take out the time to live for myself. My list contains mundane day-to-day tasks which help me move naturally(living in the blue zone yet?) and also some big/life-altering tasks/challenges that help me defy my limits. Now it seems that living a life without a bucket list would be worthless. It totally is!
So my bucket list that I created for the first time was—-
  1. Clean my fucking room!—-It truly was a mess.
  2. Leave the past behind—-which basically meant to stop regretting and start doing.
  3. Gain professional experiences through internships—-different companies—-no limits.
  4. RWLS—-read, write, listen, speak—-read what interests you at the moment, write blogs, listen to ted talks/documentaries/sitcoms/movies, speak and debate with yourself(for the time being).
  5. Join meaningful/genuine meetup groups and network—-get out of your comfort zone—-cautiously obviously!
  6. Stay fit—-jog and take part in marathons.
  7. Spend time with family/friends/loved ones.
  8. Have a downshift—-which for me it means—-dance like a maniac—-for at least 20 minutes daily!
  9. Show generosity—-a random act of kindness—-and have an attitude of gratitude.
  10. Focus on 3 things majorly—-KSA—-knowledge(in your field of interest—build it daily—compounding), Skills—through professional experience—- an attitude of gratitude and practicality——get into your dream company!!!
  11. Travel the world—-be inspired!
The one task that I completed—- the first one—-cleaned my room!—- the happiest person on the earth?—-me 🙂

My Favourite Quotes

These are the quotes that I read on the internet, or could be written by me too(hopefully someday). Don’t believe that you have to be like anybody to be somebody. Believe in something, even if it means that you have to sacrifice everything. Don’t ask if your dreams are crazy. Ask if they are crazy enough! It’s only crazy until you do it. You are only young once but you can be immature forever.  The fear of loss is stronger when you truly have something to lose, so when you do jump in the full, it hurts that much more. If only she had been better able to see the pain beneath his charm. If only she had known how to reach him when he had disappeared so deep inside his memories. If only...  All of us want to be in love's confusing joy. The way of love is not a subtle argument. The door there is devastation.

My Creation

These are some of the lines/poems that I wrote at times of uncertainity, loneliness, anger, and also at times of happiness. I guess the two feelings of an angel and a devil can't be separated after all, for they complement one another. So here it goes... The soul has been shattered and weakened, lost its sense of time, It's in search of thee, waiting and waiting till eternity..... The urge to ask is forever there but the courage isn't mustered. Time passes slowly.. and this uncanny silence surrounds me... what to ask and what not to.. How to keep it going.. questions float like fighting clouds... And then she is gone... and I am left thinking what If? I being a human am not afraid to love. I would rather want to be wrapped in its arms. But the consequence of loving and being loved is what I am fearful of. In a way, I do abhor the label and the look. Maybe that's why I can't look in the eye, can't bring myself to admit the feelings. Maybe th...
