  “When you say “Yes” to others, make sure you are not saying “No” to yourself”. A famous and beautiful quote by Paulo Coelho. When was the last time you said ‘yes, sure’ to someone but your heart was screaming from inside “nooo”. But what is the use? You have anyway told yes. You might say Oh I can't be so rigid, I am not a rough person to say no. I want to be nice with everyone. Yeah, kind of true, being rigid is not so easy. But I have a small question. Are you happy by saying yes all the time ? Think, think. It’s time to get out of the guilt you have acquired by saying yes to everything.  Always have your own stand. Never leave your dignity for someone else. Do the things that you like. Never try to do anything to satisfy others. Always remember the people you are trying to satisfy now by saying yes won’t be with you forever. The guilt you acquire after telling yes will be faced by only you. No one will come to share the guilt with you.   If you don’t like or do...

  Promises are worse than lies. You don’t just make them believe, you also make them hope. A famous quote by American Actress Marilyn Monroe. This quote reminded me a story I have read long back. The story of a beggar and a rich man. One day a rich man while walking through the streets saw a poor old man shivering with cold. Seeing the old man's plight, the rich man paused beside him and informed him he would take a blanket from his bungalow and bring it to him. The old man was so happy and he waited for the rich man to come with the blanket. The rich man on reaching his home was so busy that he completely forgot about the blanket. It was too late in the night and he slept due to the heavy work of the day. The next day the rich man woke up from his sleep remembering the blanket. He immediately took a blanket and went to the old man. But it was too late. The old man died due to severe cold. But a small letter was beside him. The rich man took the letter and it said, “ I had the cou...

  “Love yourself enough to let go of the people, thoughts, and habits that are weighing you down”. A famous quote by Karen Salmansohn, who is a self-help author and designer. Despite its simplicity, this quote contains a wealth of meaning. I am sure that everyone has something on our mind that keeps us worried, depressed or guilty. But my question is, are you someone who keeps all these things just in your mind and carries this big backpack on your shoulder? When traveling, I like to stuff everything into my backpack. I just stuff all my creams, dresses, books, and a lot more into my pack. And the moment I start walking with this luggage I start complaining that my back is paining badly.  If our back pains this much by holding all our unnecessary stuff, then what is the condition of our mind? Our mind is holding a much bigger weight and that too completely unnecessary. “ Why should I suffer from this pain ?” That should be the question that we should ask ourselves. Sometimes o...

  Hello everyone. Greetings and hope everything is well with you. Here's a task for you. Consider a scenario in which I will reward you with 5000 rupees, if you swim across a deep lake. It's up to you whether you want to take that risk or not. Next, imagine I am telling you that your best friend is in big trouble across the lake. You can't save him if you don't go now. Now you will go right? This time I haven't offered any amount. It is your urgency that makes you swim across the lake and be ready to take up any risk for your best friend.  Urgency is the biggest self-motivator. It is common that we get the assignment submission dates almost 2 to 3 weeks before. We know that it is important to submit the assignments and only if we submit them on time we get good marks. But how many of you keep your assignments completed before time and be relaxed at the time of submission dates? If you are a person like that, it is good. But unfortunately, I am not like that. I will...

  Despite my best efforts, I found the exam to be too difficult. What is wrong with me? I don't seem to be getting any good news. My efforts have been so hard.  Are you someone who tells or thinks like this? I guess almost all of us have gone through these kinds of thoughts at least once in our lifetime. In the face of these thoughts, we are pushed into a deep pit in which we may drown and lose our success. Here is a short and sweet story that you should keep in mind before you plan to quit.  Once there was a businessman who lived a luxurious life. But all of a sudden his business started losing. He lost his company, house, car and other valuables. He was in a huge debt. He decided to give up his life. Before giving up his life he wanted to sit somewhere alone quietly. So he went to a river bank far from the city. When he was sitting there a farmer came and sat beside him and started talking. Quickly they became good friends. The businessman shared his tragic story with t...

  “If you really want to know yourself, start by writing a book”. A small but meaningful quote by British Journalist Shereen El Feki. Some quotes will be meaningful to us only when we experience it personally. This is a quote which is meaningful to me. Today it is my 50th blog. It took me almost one year to write 50 blogs. And during the one year, this blog really helped me to know myself in many ways.  One year back when I started writing  I was not confident in publishing my work. I just shared my writings with a few of my family members and friends only. From there the long journey took me to publish 50 blogs officially on the MotivateEye page. A big Thankyou to all who supported by reading and motivating Motivate Eye to keep moving. I never say motivate eye is motivating you. It is you who motivates, motivate eye to motivate you. Please continue with the journey of Motivate Eye and keep motivated.  Never feel  you can know yourself only by writing something....

  Everyone has someone who helped them in their life journey. One year back, all of a sudden I started with my blog. Of Course it was not planned. After that there were many good moments in my life. Many played important roles in that too. One of them I like to mention is my HoD. There is a quote by American author Robert John Meehan. “A gifted teacher is not only prepared to meet the needs of today’s child, but is also prepared to foresee the hopes and dreams in every child’s future”. In that sense I would say he is a gifted teacher. He is the one who motivated me to make a motivational speech. Not only for me, he is there to motivate each and every student.  It has been said that bricks and stones can be turned into a lively classroom with a teacher's entrance. HoD's entry into the class made this so true. He knows the magical power to keep the students energetic in his class. He makes sure that his students learns their lessons in the class itself with his activities. ...
