We do not notice significant change as we live out our day to day lives. We think we are rather regular and follow the same routine, day in and day out. And that is true, when observing yesterday, the day before, and maybe even the week before that. But how about last month? Maybe you…

Morning Mantras It’s Not That Serious It’s just a blip. Slow Down Don’t rush. Life’s short. Think it out. React accordingly. Be Present Enjoy the process. Don’t rush the day. Enjoy the moment.
