How to not care how others think of you

How to not care how others think of you

It is natural for us to want to be liked and loved by the people around us. We all are developing to be different and unique individuals. We have our own opinion and style. People around us are not always going to be accepting and kind. That is the bitter truth. 

If we focus too much on being appreciated by everyone it is going to be very stressful, because it is next to impossible. When we desire it too much, we are going to hinder the growth of our authentic self. 

So how do you not care what others think? 

• Some people are going to dislike you and there is nothing you can do about it. There isn't a perfect world where one is liked by everybody.

• When people are being mean they are usually projecting. (They feel about you the way they feel about themselves)

• Trust few opinions only from trusted sources. Opinions that will help you grow and not make you restless.

• Be around people who are more accepting and admire your authentic self.

• You have one life, live it to the fullest and don't let how others think of you spoil another moment of your life.

How to Reduce Distraction and Find Rhythm

How to Reduce Distraction and Find Rhythm

So many things are going  on around us, we have to process so much information at once. It has become very difficult to concentrate on one thing only and flow with it. 

We get distracted very easily. This distraction hinders us from getting things done. If we are not able to finish a task, we feel anxious and sad. As our workload increases with time we get more and more worried.

It is important that we get things done well and on time. It will further boost our confidence and we can feel satisfied.

1. Focus on a single task at hand and do not multitask. Multitasking decreases productivity by 60% and reduces creativity. We also make more mistakes when we multitask.

2. Keep the most distracting object away. The mobile phone. Tell yourself that the task at hand is the most important thing right now.

3. If you are most productive for 30 minutes, after which you tend to get distracted, commit to the task for 30 minutes followed by a 5 minutes break. Take the break carefully. Do not start any activity that is hard to pause.

4. Reward yourself after getting a task done. Order the food you really wanted to eat once you are done.
