What I learnt in 21 years

This is what i learnt in 21 years!
From my DAD
From my dad
1. Even if people tell you that you’re working way too hard, or not doing smart work, don’t give up on your hard work. Remember: it has never given up on you
2. If you want respect, give respect. Respect needs to be given before it can be taken.
3. No matter how big or famous a person you become, remember where you came from. Only that can show you the right path for the future.
4. Money is only the medium to happiness. It is earned to be spent ( but of course not wasted)
5. If you have been honest, hard working and stood up for what’s right, you have nothing and no one to fear for there is always a bigger power called GOD.





From my mom
1. All your misgivings are in your head.
2. Clear your thoughts, take out the trash, your mind is all powerful and can do wonderful things
3. If you make up your mind, there is no force in this world that can stop you
4. There is no point crying or whining. Stop it and just do what you gotta do!
5. Your actions determine what you are, so choose what you do very carefully.







From my bhai:
1. There’s only one way to live your life and that is your way.
2. No matter how hard things get, you just need to hold on till the tide passes over.
3. If someone or something seems too big for you to handle, just relax and make up your mind that they are the smallest in the world.
4. Life gives you infinite challenges in the form of opportunities, therefore the one you’re giving up on might just be your lucky break.
5. Eat, drink and be merry. Make hay while the sun shines, and US will come knocking ;-)






cheers to them!






cheers to life!

I always knew that you are a good learner but i am really happy that u remember all the things taught by the ones whose advice we tend to forget the moment they give us. So just one thing keep it up :)
