Conversation between Vivekanand & Ramkrishna

Vivekanand:- I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic.
Ramkrishna :- Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

Vivekanand:- Why has life become complicated now? 
Ramkrishna :-Stop analyzing life.. It makes it complicated. Just live it. 

Vivekanand:- Why are we then constantly unhappy?
Ramkrishna :-Worrying has become your habit. That’s why you are not happy.


Vivekanand:-Why do good people always suffer?


Ramkrishna:-Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don’t suffer.
With that experience their life becomes better, not bitter. 

Vivekanand:-You mean to say such experience is useful? 
Ramkrishna :- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.


Vivekanand:-Because of so many problems, we don’t know where we are heading…
Ramkrishna:- If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.


Vivekanand:-Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?Ramkrishna :- Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. 


Vivekanand:-In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
Ramkrishna :- Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing. 

Vivekanand:- What surprises you about people?
Ramkrishna :- When they suffer they ask, “why me?” When they prosper, they never ask “Why me?” 


Vivekanand:- How can I get the best out of life?
Ramkrishna :- Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.


Vivekanand:- One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
Ramkrishna :- There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve.

14 Types of Cousins

1. The Goofball Cousin - He’s the one who makes the jokes at all the family get-together and functions. He loves being the family jester and the undisputed centre of attention.   2. The Over-Achieving Cousin Sister - There’s an over-achieving sister in every family. She has at least three degrees, has probably studied abroad, written a book or two and has a high paying job while juggling a family at the same time.   3. The Playboy Elder Brother - He’s the care-free, happy go lucky womanizer all the boys in the family idolize and wish to emulate. But that’s easier said than done. Because you can’t acquire the game, you’re born with it.   4. The Responsible One - Remember Salman khan’s character from Baghban? This cousin is the real life version of the reel life “sanskaari” Alok. They’re polite, studious and impeccably mannered; and more often than not, whenever you do something stupid, you are told to “Kuch seekho ussey!”   5. The Terrible Twosome - They’re always a pair. And they’re always about the same age. Individually, they are sheep. But together, they are lions. Annoying, sarcastic, boisterous little lions who make fun of everyone in the family and get away with it because “ye toh abhi bacchey hain.”   6. The Kindergarten Squad - Little children are cute, but they can be slightly annoying at times. Now imagine a whole bunch of toddlers running around the place, laughing, crying, screaming and pooping at the drop of a hat. And they’re all related.   7. The Shy Cousin - She is shy. Like really, really shy. You’ve probably never heard a word from their mouth. And when you have, it was an indiscernible squeak. When the cousins get together, she’s the one who makes an excuse and bolts as soon as possible.   8. The Vagabond - He’s often used as a cautionary tale in the family. “Whatever you do, don’t end up like him.” But you don’t care, because he’s the most chilled out person you’ve ever met.   9. The “Foren” Cousins - They’re the ones who stay in “Emreeka” or “Kaneda” and fly down to meet you once every 5 years or so. Every time they visit, their accent becomes thicker and thicker.   10. The Cousins You Only See At A Wedding - That is literally the first time you ever see them .You wave at them, smile and then wait awkwardly for someone to introduce you to them.   11. The Doting Cousin Sister - This is especially true for guys who are single kids or only have brothers in their own family. You always have that one cousin sister who thinks the world of you. And even if she lives far from you, every time you receive her “rakhi” in the mail on Rakshabandhan, you smile from ear to ear.   12. The Artistic Cousin - He’s the cousin with whom you can’t have a conversation without feeling like you know nothing about culture and the arts.   13. The Cousin With All The Advice - You try to avoid him, but in the end, he finds you anyway. He’s usually way older than you and has a family of his own. But since he can’t lecture his wife or his toddlers, he grabs you and starts telling you everything that he has learnt in life so far.   14. The Cousin You Love To Hang Out With - Your favourite cousin. The cousin with whom you have an effortless rapport with and can to for hours.

15 Ways to Recharge Your Energy Levels!

1. Eat a banana Bananas provide minerals, nutrients and stimulants such as potassium, which provides controlled energy, preferred to the type of energy obtained all at once from simple sugars.   2. Place head between your legs This trick will get blood flowing to your head. Sit on a chair and put your head between your legs. Send your arms towards the floor and relax your body for 20 seconds.

Drink Green Tea Yes we've said it before, but the fact still remains that green tea has an abundance of phytochemicals called tannins. These help, among other things, to calm the nervous system and thus increase the feeling of well-being.   4. Pinch your cheeks Our grandparents probably had a good reason to pinch our cheek. This stimulates the blood flow to the face and makes you feel more alert.   5. Drink lots of water All body systems require a large amount of water to function. In the absence of water in the body, proper functioning slows, blood flow becomes weaker and less oxygen reaches the brain. Drink a glass of water every two hours at least, when the goal is to drink 8-12 glasses of water a day.   6. Get some sun Small doses of vitamin D can be a great incentive. Take a walk or sit a few minutes in the sun. Fresh air combined with natural light will make you feel more alert.   7. Move the body Once you feel the fatigue taking over, get up and shake your body. Do some stretching, push-ups, a short trip or just a few jumps instead. Movement stimulates blood flow in the body and releases endorphins that make you feel alert.   8. Laugh out loud Laughter has been shown to de-stress us but also acts as a natural stimulant. A good belly laugh releases endorphins that neutralize the bad effects of the hormone cortisol (stress hormone), increase blood flow and oxygen and give you a sense of well being.   9. Take a deep breath Take a deep breath and slowly let it out through your nose, and again, fill your abdomen and exhale, emptying all the air from your lungs. Do it three times.
