Happy Holidays!🏖

allycaralgoa

Hello my Lovelies! Hope you all are doing well… #BeingAllycaral is back this Tuesday with #BeingAllycaralTuesdayTips. Well, summer is almost here and with this scorching heat, the unseasonable spell of monsoon is the only source of relief for us. Most of us would prefer to stay in doors to avoid this heat, while the others would get to destination like the beach getaways.

Well, keeping all of this in mind here are a few tips how one can have a memorable trip. So dher kis baat ki, (what’s the delay for?) let’s get started!

1. Use Public Transportation – Whenever you plan your holiday to a new place or a public destination always try to use the public transportation or the public mode of commuting in this area. This helps a lot especially to put yourself in to the shoes of the locals in that area.

2. Maintain a Travel Diary – Yes! A Diary that documents every moment of your trip. You don’t have to write down everyday or every moment but hey try to note down important stuff like about the facts about the place you are visiting or for that matter about the restaurants that you visit. Always make sure to try food in a restaurant that is suggested by a local from that place. They can be your best guide.

3. Learn the Language – Everyone should try this one! It is lot more fun than you think, especially when you interact with the person who already is familiar with the language. The amount of happiness you feel that you accomplished something different and Hatke is something which is priceless.

4. Explore the Place on your own – This could be a challenging task but hey! You should give a try to such things, you never know what you might have in store for yourself. I always believe the experiences that you encounter in your day to day life or for that matter the circumstances or situations that you come across, everything happens for a reason. And when such a thing happens you either win gracefully or you learn tactically. So go ahead, give it a try! If you are scared, you should first experiment this in your own neighborhood, try it out in your own city itself and see the difference. Your confidence levels up. Then slowly try a new state and then a whole different country. Another important thing, while exploring do not forget to buy yourself a momento of the place you visited. It could be a simple souvenir that you could keep along. Buying such things not only adds to your showcase but also every time you see this place, it brings back the memories of that particular day!

5. Document the moment – Record every moment on your trip but at the same time enjoy the moment! Once someone told me, “Leave the phone aside, not everything can be captured through the phone. Sometimes it’s best to see through your own eyes!” Well true, in every possible way! But clicking pictures too keep the memories intact. So now what I do is, when I visit a new place, first I admire the place through the naked eye and then click pictures. Because in case memory gets weak then phones help them to remember those moments once again!

Certainly, live every moment, capture memories good and bad because good makes you happy while bad teaches you to appreciate all the good memories. So yes! Life is too short to hold a grudge against eachother. Meet people, friends, acquaintances share ideas, appreciate one another for their good deeds at work, help one another and uplift to glory.

And Hey! You yes you reading my article. Thank you for taking time out and reading it. Means a alot… Have a fantastic week ahead.

#AllycaralTuesdaytips 👒, Self Care

How to Invest more on Yourself?

allycaralgoa

Hello My Beautiful Allys,

After receiving amazing response for the previous #BeingAllycaralSaturdaypoll 👒 here I am with my first post on Self Care post. Interesting and exciting as it could be, here I am experimenting with my first Self Care #BeingAllycaralTuesdaytips 👒

And this week, the best topic to start with is “How best One can Invest more in Self”. People often have this misconceptions that investing on yourself means spending a lot of money. The fact is, this may not be the case. It is basically a feeling one needs from self in order to feel fulfilled. This may sound a lot deeper, and you might find yourself lost or confused. Hey! hang on, I just got started. The Golden Rules to Invest Gracefully on Yourself include:

  • Be Happy – As simple as it may sound, in today’s world of uncertainty we all go through questioning relationships, jobs wondering are we really happy doing what we are at the moment? We definitely may have a smile on our face but truly are we satisfied what we are doing? And the best person to figure this out is none other than ourselves. Remember in order to be happy, you need to feel it from within. Often, people get affected by the surrounding, situations that bring you down. But the best way to deal with all these things are to learn to put your happiness first, and always remember never to depend on someone else for your happiness. Because no matter what, whether with or without life still moves on. If you catch the train, you win, if you don’t well don’t worry stay there another one is definitely on it’s way. Remember, the only person who have the power to make yourself happy is your self. If you have to truly enjoy yourself. Some days, do what you always wanted to do, take a day off or maybe a week, go watch a movie, play a video game that you like, treat yourself at the spa, enjoy a late laid back afternoon at a beach side, spend some time with old friends reminiscing some good old memories. Because hey! you are still very young, you don’t have to figure out what your entire life would look like.
  • Assess Your Goals and Targets of Life –  This is something which everyone needs to do in order to make sure in this journey of life you are making the most out of the opportunities that you are given. Assessing and evaluating your career graph in simple words mean comparing yourself for a period. Like for example, if there is a difference between You about a Year back and Today in terms of the things that you have  learnt, the growth in terms of the way you handle situations and most importantly how rationally you can deal with the balance of professional and personal life. Some days definitely there will be a times, when you don’t have to figure out what you will be doing in the next 5 years. On those days all you have to do is just go with the flow and most importantly get through the day. But make you sure to bounce back and work hard to achieve what you planned for yourself in the coming years. (Always write Your Goals down, Look at it every morning, Trust me this works! Try Yourself to see results.)
  • Work towards achieving Healthy Physical and Mental Self – Now Working towards achieving a whole healthy self is one of the things we often hear! Now, in order to achieve a Healthy Self – First we need to get out of the bed and exercise. The best way to get our physical self fit is exercising, now this could be at home or at gym. I usually prefer exercising at home because you get your own space and at the same time you alone can push your self harder than anyone else can. So Exercising Definitely helps a lot as most of us are working tirelessly sitting in front of a PC or a Mac Book or a laptop exhausting mentally ourselves from morning to evening, which means less body activity. So Exercising pumps the blood and this is one of the aspect of Being Healthy, Now the second aspect includes How to keep your Mental Self Healthy. One of the best ways to do so is Meditation. Yes! an age old traditional method, which instantly rejuvenates yourself. Usually advisable for 45  minutes every single day, this will bring much needed stability for your mind. And another important therapy is music! Keep a separate music time for yourself. Listen to tracks that uplift your soul. Listen Happy Tracks. The best time to exercise or meditate is early mornings before breakfast or post office after going home. And as World Health Day is Coming Up on 7th April 2018. Indeed a perfect month to kick start your workout routine.
  • Develop Your Skills – This is the best way to learn something new, be it a new language, or be it new dance form or simply be it learning to play a guitar. The best way to get started is read books, research online, watch videos, read matter online. This slowly increasing your knowledge day by day helping you to develop new additionally skills. Learning is not just restricted to these, several times we learn and develop skills by meeting friends, colleagues and acquaintances. It is always said, every person that you meet in your life teaches you something or the other. Sometimes good to best while sometimes bad to worst. What is important is you take everything and absorb the positivism in everything.

There you are simple as it sounds. Remember the more you invest on your self with the pointers mentioned above the more richer you will get. And it is an every day process. And in this world full of uncertainties it is advisable to always take time off for the most important person in your life which is yourself. Make that person the happiest for that person deserves a lot. And I would say, You alone know what all things that person has gone through, so hey you alone can be a superman/ superwomen to save yourself.
