Season 3, Teri Meri Batein!

We feel stressed in our lives because of different reasons. Whether it’s work, school, social life, family, love, or anything else, one can get bogged down by all kinds of things. And one of the biggest reasons could be "not being able to get what we always dreamt for".  Due to this, one might want to just take a step back, breathe and ask: “how do I restart my life?”. However, with so many things that could add to the pressure of everyday life, it might seem impossible to relax, wind down, and start fresh.  But, does life stop there?  Lets learn from Naresh Naik who, at the age of 58, resumed his life his way.  Do listen and share your feedback!  Jai Hind Vivek

How to Restart living life? A true story - Naresh Naik

As per an Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) research, Every 7th Indian man is shaken up by the mental health disorders. Men are a species who have to handle/ manage several expectations right from the childhood and this does leave them frustrated as they grow giving them the sense of "No one loves me unconditionally, everyone around me needs something or the other from me". I can't pinpoint one thing about the problem but yes, somewhere as a society we have gone wrong the trend seems to be continuing. The suicide death rate for men has increased from 18.7% to 23.4%. 10-34-year-old men's suicide rate is the second-highest leading and fourth leading in the case of 30-35 years old. Today's episode starts with a poem written by me followed by the casual chat with a business leader who interacts with thousands of people across the world. I hope this cuts some ice. Stay tuned and see you soon. Jai Hind Vivek www.thevivek.in

Men and Mental Health

A little stress can be a good thing: it can be the motivational push that we need to get things done. However, sometimes, dealing with stress, especially during exam season can be a difficult thing to do. And, with an estimated 20-50% annual increase of university students seeking help for studies-related mental health issues, it's clear that we're under more pressure than ever before. In today's episode I invited Mrs. Richa Kumar who is Academic Director of Sanskruti World school &amp; Junior college, ex Principal and mother of two grown up kids. I'm sure this chat will help in real life. Enjoy the episode. See you soon. Jai Hind Vivek

Top 10 Rules of Super Success

We live with people and can not avoid them. Good people around us help us improve our lives, boost our confidence, and enable us to succeed but there are people around us who knowingly/ unknowingly pull us down, label us as something that we are NOT, kill our productivity, and engage us in things that are neither desired nor deserved by us. It is vital for all of us to identify such people around us and maintain a distance from them so that we can remain focused on our life goals including our relationships, career, and everything else that we want in our lives. In this episode, I have shared 6 toxic traits of people who need to stay away from our lives. I hope this helps. See you soon. Jai Hind Vivek  www.thevivek.in

15: Stop Comparing Yourself To Others

Many of the times we remain confused whether to follow our passion or purpose and before that, what is it? how to realise it and furthermore how to pursue the same?Let me explain: Passion is something for yourself. It makes YOU happy, it fills YOU with joy.  and on the other hand, Purpose is for others. Once you find your purpose, it your duty to bring it to life. Your purpose in one way or another help at least ONE person when it comes to fruition, if not more. When we focus on how to get out of the comfort zone that we are holed up in, to go and accomplish your purpose, we often mistaken it for ourselves. Live for others, accomplish for others and you will do well for yourself. When we stay engaged into our daily routine and lose our lifetime without even enjoying it to the fullest, we feel regret in later part of our lives.Regret according to me is the worst feeling. It is the feeling of you just not doing something, which if you had done, would take down a different path. The worst part of it, there is nothing you can do about it, after the opportunity goes. Whatever purpose you are trying to accomplish, it involves you getting out of the comfort zone and accomplishing it. This is why so many people don’t do it. While this may save you from the pain of discomfort, it won’t save you from the pain of regret.

11: How to identify your passion and purpose in life and pursue them?

Are you suffering from depression?Or are you dealing with it’s lesser known twin.Crisis comes across multiple stages of life. You may be worried everyday about what you are doing with you life, you procrastinate whatever you want to do, and end up doing nothing anyways. I will be prepared for my work at the start of everyday, meetings with my clients, answering emails etc.“Anyway, I will end up doing none of it. I do not do any of the work, just spend time on Netflix and regret it later. I want to develop myself spiritually and physically. But, I never manage to do any of that too. This is my everyday pattern of self-destruction rather than construction. I go into a spiral of negativity and it goes on forever. I think I am in depression.This was the conversation that we most heard repeated when taken a consensus of 20-30 year olds. Well, good news for anyone going through this phase of life. Be assured but, you are not suffering from depression. The midday demon - Acedia, was coined by monks in the 4th century, such has been its existence.Acedia was one of the most severe problems that is out there today because of the despair and absolute disdain for life it produced in a human being. It’s a shame the word has been lost to ancient textbooks and is no longer used, because acedia’s effects carry far more weight in today’s cultural environment.In Kathleen Norris’s book, Acedia &amp;me: A Marriage, Monks, and a Writer’s Life. In the book she quotes a monk who states:“The demon of acedia — also called the noonday demon — is the one thatcauses the most serious trouble of all…He makes it seem that the sunbarely moves, if at all, and…he instills in the heart of the monk a hatredfor the place, a hatred for his very life itself.”

When Jenny Quan Zhiya, the high flying tech executive of a Chinese Car Rental company decided it was time to go out on her own, most would have considered her venture doubtful. After all who wants to start a coffee chain to beat out Starbucks?  Especially considering the fact that Starbucks partnered with Alibaba to open exclusive Starbucks stores to make you feel that you are in 2040 already. But that did not stop Jerry Quan Zhiya, often known as the woman with the face of Buddha but works works like a thunder, from going after her dream of building up a brand to put up a major challenge against Starbucks. Fast forward 18 months, Luckin Coffee has 2370 stores ie one store opened every 3.5 hours. It is the first Chinese unicorn in the coffee industry, and Jerry still has a long way to go.  But what if she thought at the start that this was a foolish endeavour? What if she believed that Starbucks can never be put up to a challenge? We would never have the worlds first cashless coffee chain with more than a 1000 stores.  Most people are living lives in someone else’s terms. Living a life where they try their best to avoid fear, risk or resentment of any kind. In most of the cases this has been culturally ingrained in us, other times it is childhood memories that haunt us into this hole.

In September 2014, I lost my only son who was about 5 then and that was the turning point of my life. Dreams, aspiration, passion, need, greed and everything which supposedly constitute to be called a vibrant life were shattered. Somehow, I gathered myself and tried to move on but I was probably not strong enough to take the weight of tears of a mother and one day, defined everything I could see, hear, feel as “a waste”. I chose to end this trauma by taking the lives of mine and my wife but destiny had its own plan. Something happened that time and I chose to live; only to be strong, be able and give back to society, the country at large. The journey was neither smooth then, nor now but I have learned to see and experience life as it is. This is my first book named “God is not Fair ?” which has learnings from my own life as in, how we bounced back every time life threw challenges on us and conquered. GINF also features 5 such warriors who at one point of their life were so devastated that they thought it’s the end of life but they bounced back and became an inspiration to thousands of people.  I've also started this Podcast channel where I'll be bringing in stories of living people who fought out the odds and contribute to the society at large.
