Increasing Income and Getting A Raise

When I say increasing income, I mean in simple terms, how to make a mindset to generate more income and over time gaining financial freedom.
More money comes to you when you create another path for it to flow from. If you keep your money in your account, you'll spend it on irrelevant things. Money has to keep flowing either way, I can't be stagnant. You will have to put your money to work for you. So, if you want to increase the amount of money that comes to you, first you will have to plan on where you want it to go, what will you do with the extra income. For example, before you get an expected increment, you will have to create a need for it. Either to invest it somewhere, or to spend it on material. Either way you'll have to create a path for it to flow to.
For example, when you want more water in your house, you will have to get a new pipeline from the source to your house and then to somewhere else, to keep it flowing.

So think about what's next in your life. Are you planning to get a new wardrobe, a new car? You want to invest it? Where do you want it to go? Plan it exactly how you want it. Calculate it in your notebook.
The science behind it is, when you make yourself aware of what is next, your subconscious starts to put things in focus which will bring you to your goal. If you are looking for income increase to invest, your mind will highlight the advertisements of mutual funds, stock market, bull and similar stuff. It will make you calculate how much do you want to make to be able to invest a particular amount to make a sum in years to come. Hence, your mind will make you be more proactive to seize the next opportunity to make more money.

Why am I a Professional Listner?

 I was wondering what and when was the best conversation of your life? Did it include listening? Did it include curiosity and questions? Was it full of awe? Did the conversation go deep? Did you lose track of time?  If you can’t remember, then you probably haven’t had such a conversation yet. And through this blog, I am giving you, an opportunity to have the best conversation of your life. If you have experienced such a conversation, then this an opportunity to feel good about it, and become aware, so that each conversation you have from now on is as powerful! Even the ones that seem irrelevant to you at the moment. We all know someone, who just wants someone to listen to him/her. She doesn’t want any solution or any inputs. She just wants to be heard. I was curious, is it your partner? Is it your parent? Is it your child? Is it a friend? A colleague? It started similarly for me. I wanted to be heard but while everyone else was talking, I felt lost and unheard. That’s when dec...

Circle of Concern- Circle of Influence

Humankind has evolved to a level where we care about things more than ourselves. We care about the environment, we care about the world, we care about our society. We have become more empathetic towards things around us and things far from us. We start to confuse between what we can and can not control. Things we can not control does not let us sleep. We are for sure better human beings, but with care comes worry and chaos. We start to sabotage our daily life with things we can not control. We need to become proactive instead of reactive. We need a tool to understand the things we worry about and take proactive steps towards it. (To read about being proactive, go here ) Such a tool is Circle of Concern-Circle of Influence. If you see the image below. Imagine the outer circle COC, consists of all the things you care about. It might be from what people say about you (if you care), how government is not taking care of the crimes, fire in nearby building, school, office, bed sheet you...

Resilient Person's guide to Life Struggles -- Part I

There are certain values that lie in the core of us. My personal core values are Serve Grow and Inspire. There are other values which helps us fit into society. Like- Respect elders, Be nice, Honesty, Education, Dignity, Quality of Life, etc. Another set of values to keep a balance between both.  One of those values is Resilience.  Read on to know what I mean by this. While growing up, we adopt the values of the society such as 'respecting elders, be a good student, be honest, agree with what friends are saying, stay with the herd or you will get hurt' These are some of the (un)spoken values we adopt. At one time or other, society values or the values of the home we're part of- may make us unhappy. This is when we start looking out of alternatives. This is when we feel like we do not belong. We start doing things secretly to be ourselves. We stay up at night because only then we can be ourselves. The value we seek is happiness and safety to be ourselves.  For example...
