Woice with Warikoo Podcast

No matter how good we are at something, we will bump into somebody who does not agree with us. Maybe they won't agree with our choice, suggestions, ways of working or something else and unfortunately we are not trained well on how to handle disagreements. So if someone disagrees with us, our brain tries to tell us that we are in danger and hence we become defensive. But, we must reflect why and where these disagreements are coming from. Their negative and positive forms. How are they  affecting us and thus react in a more informative way or so, not react at all.   

 Quite often we find ourselves in difficult circumstances, variety of difficult circumstances. Not feeling worthy of love by your loved ones, self esteem going down the hill every time we look at a social media post or being torn in what subjects to choose. We do everything in our power to succeed at our jobs, but still we feel the sense of lacking. Or maybe not able to crack any interview. Instead of getting disheartened looking at the ones ahead of the curve, you should ask yourself that what is it telling me? What could I change in order to change the cycle? And that is where all the answers lie. Listening to what is the pattern telling you and changing it productively.   

Whenever you are faced with tough decisions to make in life, you should always remind yourself of what is going to be worst case scenario. It sounds like a defeatist approach but, on the contrary, it really works. Why? Because once you know what's the worst could happen to you, any scenario you deal with, is going to be better than what you had imagined. You are training your mind to be prepared for what's the worse could happen, you're prepared for it. But at the same time, that worst scenario is one of the million possibilities. 

We all at one point struggle finding our purpose, goal or passion in life. But you don't find your Passion, you grow your passion. So, your passion is liking something you do, doing it constantly over the period of time and enjoying it while doing. You don't find passion hidden in the corners but the things you have stayed and nurtured over the time.  Quitting your job or studies to find your passion is not an answer. In fact you are building pressure of earning from your passion from the day one. In order to fulfill your passion, you should first look for stability. Instead of giving up on your job, find time in in your current situation and devote it towards your passion.  

That one failed exam or missed promotion or not being able to buy the latest car right now isn’t the end of the world. It is natural to feel a sense of disappointment when you’ve let those around you and yourself down… but remember, your life is not over. That path which you couldn’t walk wasn’t the only way to get to your destination. The material possessions you covet are means and not the destination. They don't define you.  My wish for the first episode of the year... I hope this turns out to be the best year for you... by falling in love with yourself.

Everything we do in our lives, is going to have consequences, whether with a big or small impact. That means for our every action, there are going to be consequences and we need to be prepared. Most of us our guilty of focusing on firstly order consequence and not thinking ahead. To take the wisest decisions in our lives, the surest way is to go down to at least 5 orders of consequence for the decision we are making. 

All of us at some point of time receive hatred, whether in person or on the internet. In a way, the people that hate us help us. All  we have to do is dismiss the hate, because it saves us a lot of energy and time. That energy can be used in a lot of productive ways.

The Top 20 Lies we have been told all our lives. When the difficult questions about life were brought up, nobody had the answers and so the world came up with these rules or lies. And suddenly there was a right and wrong way of doing things, where the right ways were celebrated and the wrong ways became a taboo. My answer to all of this is: Don't allow the world to feed you these lies.

The top three questions that i receive in DMs, emails and messages: "I hate my job and I can't leave it"; "I hate what I am studying"; "I am in a toxic relationship and I can't get out". My response is the same: what is stopping you?

I wanted to narrate a story that left a huge impression on me and taught me an important lesson. We often accept things to be true when we hear it from someone we believe. This creates an important responsibility.
