“Write your own Biography”
You may have noticed that I have been sharing with you from time to time, my thoughts and ideas on various aspects of life through WA. And the only motive behind doing so, is to let you know that I care for you.
Today, the entire world is passing through one of its worst ever crisis of its time, where the only safe place for us, is our home. And the only thing that we should do, is to remain inside it and thank & pray for the well-being of all the Corona Warriors across the globe.
They are the god-sent angels, who are trying to make our life safe, by risking theirs. May God bless them and keep them safe too.
Today, two weeks of the Lockdown are getting over, and one more week is yet to go. Sitting at home, doing nothing, is a very big challenge for many of us, more so for those who are used to living a very hectic and fast-paced life.
Now that we have one more week to go, then why not to make use of this time in doing something which is truly unique and if done with utmost commitment, can also prove to be BluePrint for success in our life.
Yes, I am referring to, “Write your own Biography” but how to do it and where to start from?
Most of us have been used to of using laptops, desktops even mobiles for our day to day personal and professional work. So you can use the same for writing your own Biography as well. And just in case if you are not a tech-savvy person, you can start writing it in a note book also.
And what you have to do is simply, follow the following steps:
1. Start writing about your life as to how it has gone so far, from as far back as you can recollect, may be your childhood days or school days.
2. Keep writing down the incidences which taught you some good practical lessons about life. Highlight the lessons which you have learnt for reinforcing the same in your life.
3. You will recollect instances when you made mistakes which you would never like to repeat write about them with a resolution not to repeat them ever again.
4. You will also recollect many good things you have done which gave you so much joy and happiness, write about them.
5. In this process of writing your own biography, you will also recollect many people, who have helped you in different stages of your life, write a couple of lines in expression of gratitude for them.
6. You may also recollect few people who may have hurt you in the past, in one way or the other. No point in carrying that emotional garbage with you any further, so just write a few lines, forgiving them for what they did to you, and close the chapter once for all.
7. Likewise, you too may have hurt some people, knowingly or unknowingly, write a few lines seeking forgiveness from them and close these chapters as well, once for all.
8. Finally in the end, now how you would like your life to progress post lockdown, here write your plans as much in detail as possible.
9. Let this part be your BluePrint for success going forward. So, write the things that you would like to start to have a balance in your life, post lockdown. Likewise, also reaffirm the good practices which you have followed in the past, which you would like to continue in future as well.
This need not be done in sitting. Write in as many sitting as you may need, but you must do it.
Believe me, this will prove to be one of the best use of your Lockdown period which you will treasure and benefit from, for rest of your life. As it would be your Roadmap for success in future.
Friends, it is good to take inspiration from the Biographies of others. But it is even better to do so from our own, and why not.
So happy writing. Stay Home, Stay Safe.
