“Follow your Heart”, Do we really do that?

I often hear this statement “Follow your Heart” from many people around. Often mentors, teachers and friends tell us to do this. We can read stories guiding people that they should do things according to what they feel is right.

But do we really do that?

Do we even spend a single day as per our own choice?

We go to school, as we are expected to go to school.

We take up a job, as we are expected to take one.

We marry, as we are expected to marry till some defined age or so.

What do we do with our choice?

AND In case you dare to actually “Follow your Heart”… Be ready to become a laughter element for the society.

This is why no one dares to “Follow their Heart”.

But what if Albert Einstien also decided not to be different? We would have lost a wonderful knowledge guru and would have been refrained by his great theories and philosophies.

And what if Sir Columbus had also decided to stop his craving for traveling? America would not have been discovered too.

These are instances from past when people were courageous enough to “follow their heart”.

It’s quite disappointing but the trust is that these days we do not “Follow our heart”. We are fearful of society and do not have courage to believe ourselves.

We need to understand that we all have a life of our own and we have a right to live it free.

“Follow your Heart” works only once you stick to your belief.

Be courageous enough to be yourself. Live Life on your terms.

FOLLOW YOUR HEART!

    Wonderful blog Ashima! But I think there is thin difference between mind and heart. We should always think twice before responding to a certain situation or doing anything. We should think from our mind but we should do it by heart.

    Agreed but.. I don't see many people following their heart. They do what society wants them to do.

    A very well written and well thought article Ashima. The world is moving fast and all we are ever told is to grow bigger or mark our names or make our parents proud or save for our kids to have a better future or spend more time with relatives else they should feel bad and trust me when i say that i could go on. But in all of this, we forget ourselves. We forget to remember what we really desire and what makes us happy.

Significance of Social Media Marketing: Content, its Reach or Campaign?

My experience of 4 years in content writing and digital marketing doesn’t give me enough right to start sharing my views on how any company should plan its marketing efforts. I am still new to the industry and have to learn a lot before I start advising. Yet my association with different start-up has given me a confidence to express my views about the use and relevance social media marketing for businesses. Content has been regarded as king in search engine optimization and content has importance in social media too. But, is it the content only that can work in full scale marketing of a business, at least when it comes to social media? I believe, definitely content drives but its viral-ity in the form of campaign is equally important. Content can be in the form of images, videos, statements, information etc. Different forms of content works in different forms of mediums. For example, images work more on Facebook but less on other mediums. Likewise, one needs to figure out on the ...

Steps to Un-complicate your life

Love yourself : Don’t go beyond what’s intolerable for you. Being in relationship doesn’t means you will have to keep a knife hanging around your neck. But this is what generally happens. Stop doing what you don’t want to and do whatever makes you happy. That’s the true fun in living. Learn a lesson from past affairs and get the hell out of the present: One should always learn from the mistakes made in past. Leave it, if it’s too hard to carry and just move ahead. No regrets too please. If things move normally, it’s good, If not then let it be and learn from the experience. Concentrate on what’s really important: Prioritize in life. Put those things on top, that matters to you and make it work for you. Leave those things aside that makes you sad. Focus on the results and not mere transactions: Don’t just keep yourself busy but focus on the deliverables. Though keeping yourself busy is the easiest thing one can do but removing complications is possible only if y...
