Take proud feelings moments by imagine that beautiful sight

Hey there, It’s Namrata here, and today I want to take you on a journey. No, it’s not going to be a boring business lecture or a sales pitch. Instead, let’s get a little personal because I believe that every one of us has a dream that we chase and oh girls, those hurdles can be daunting!

Ever felt like there’s a mountain of hurdles in front of you? Like it’s just you against the world and every step forward feels heavy? Yep, I’ve been there more times than I can count. But that’s where the beauty lies.

So, let’s dive in!

I want to talk about the new year special: One dream, 1000 hurdles. And trust me, this isn’t just about motivational fluff. This is raw and real, just like you and me navigating our career paths and personal lives.

A few years ago, I had this wild dream – like, absolutely wild! I wanted to launch my own business. The kind of business that would change lives, empower people and I believed I could do it. But guess what? I had no connections, no funds and honestly? Not much experience either. Just a dream.

To get there, I hit hurdle after hurdle. From financial struggles to doubters, to those moments when I felt like I didn’t belong in the field I’d chosen. Every failure felt like I was falling flat on my face. But, here’s where it gets interesting.

One day, while sitting on my couch with a cup of coffee, I envisioned the victory. That feeling when you finally land your first big client, when you see the impact you’re making, and when success just shouts your name! It’s exhilarating, isn’t it?

So, I decided to shift my focus. Instead of fixating on the hurdles, I visualized that beautiful sight! Every time I faced a challenge, I reminded myself of that moment. It became a driving force!

Now, let me share with you three practical tips on how to tackle your hurdles. Because let’s be real—dreaming is one thing, but doing is an entirely different sport!

1.Embrace the hurdles: Accept that they’re part of your journey. They’re not roadblocks; they’re stepping stones.

2.Visualize your success: Always keep that beautiful sight at the forefront of your mind. Write it down, create a vision board, do whatever it takes to make it feel real.

3.Celebrate the small wins: Recognize the tiny victories along the way! Each step counts, and they ultimately lead you to your grand goal.

I want to hear your stories! What’s your dream, and what hurdles have you faced? Share in the comments below! Let’s encourage each other because trust me, this journey is so much better when we’re in it together. 🎉

So as we step into this new year, remember: yes, there will be hurdles, but don’t lose sight of that magnificent victory standing on the other side. Visualize it, embrace it, and go after it!

If you found this article helpful, please give it a thumbs up and share it with someone who might need that reminder today. Let’s make this year our best one yet! Cheers!

And hey, I’m Namrata and I believe in you!  Remember, one dream, 1000 hurdles!

Life shows many colors & many come to throw us down, but don’t give up!!

Today, I(Namrata) want to talk about something that’s been on my mind a lot lately. Life. Yeah, you heard that right. Life – our beautiful, chaotic, colorful and sometimes downright messy journey.

I’ve been reflecting on how life tosses us around like a pizza dough at a pizzeria. It’s kind of wild, isn’t it? One moment, everything feels like it’s going great – let’s call this the ‘Sunny yellow’ phase. You’re cruising along, happy as a clam. But then, wham! Out of nowhere, gray clouds roll in – maybe it’s a job loss, a breakup or even just a rough day – and suddenly everything feels… well, uncertain.

It’s like this roller coaster of colors. Some days are vibrant reds and oranges, bursting with passion and joy. Other days? Well, they can feel more like dreary blues. But here’s the kicker, right? Those colors, those ups and downs, they’re all part of the masterpiece that is your life.

And let me tell you, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when you’re in the middle of a storm. It’s tempting to throw in the towel, to give up, to say, ‘I can’t handle this anymore.’ But I want to remind you, my friends, don’t give up!

Like that moment when you think you’re at your lowest, there’s always a spark – a flicker of hope. Trust me; I’ve been there. I recall an experience from a few years back when life threw me one of its biggest curveballs.

I had my dream job lined up, or so I thought. I was excited. I did all the right things. I rehearsed my interview answers, dressed to the nines, but when the call came, it wasn’t the news I anticipated. It was a no. Just like that, my dreams felt dashed against the rocks.

I spent a solid week feeling sorry for myself. You know, I watched rom-coms in my PJs and consumed an alarming amount of ice cream. But then something happened. Through the haze of disappointment, I realized something crucial – this color palette I was dealing with was not the final masterpiece.

So, I dusted myself off, took a deep breath, and got back out there. I applied for jobs like crazy, networked with folks on LinkedIn, and took online courses – filling my life with vibrant new experiences, new connections, and yes… more color!

And guess what? That experience changed me. It helped me grow in ways I never expected, and it led me to opportunities I was meant to chase. I’ve since landed jobs that not only challenge me but ignite a fire in my belly!

So here’s my advice to you: When life is throwing color at you – good, bad, or ugly – embrace it. You’ve got to keep pushing forward and believe there are brighter days ahead. Each shade, each hue, is a step toward the masterpiece that is uniquely yours.

Remember, “The sun shines brightest after the storm.” So, whenever you feel like throwing in the towel, remind yourself: you’ve got this. Keep painting your canvas, don’t stop until you love the masterpiece you’ve created.

If you’re comfortable, drop a comment down below – share your own colorful journey, your own ups and downs. Let’s inspire each other because together, we can turn storms into sunshine!

Thanks for reading, and stay vibrant, my friends!”

Take risk in your life, if win, you can guide!!

Hey there, We hope you’re all having an #amazing day.

Today, I Namrata want to share something that’s been swirling around in my mind lately. You know that little #voice in your head that whispers, “What if…?” Well, today, let’s talk about that “what if” and how it connects to taking risks in our lives.

PART 1 – The Importance of Risk-Taking

So, let me hit you with a question: When was the last time you took a REAL risk? I mean, like, a leap-of-faith, heart-pounding, sweat-collecting kind of risk?

Now, I know what you might be thinking. “But I have a #steady #job, #responsibilities, #security etc….. And yes, those things are important. But here’s the kicker: #Staying in your #comfortzone might feel safe, but that’s NOT where the #magic happens!

I remember when I first decided to leave my stable job to start my own venture. My hands were shaking, my heart was racing, and let me tell you – the fear was real! But do you know what happened? I discovered new skills, met incredible people, and learned lessons that I never would have experienced otherwise.

PART 2 – The Two Paths – Winning vs. Losing – Now, I’m not saying I won every single time. I had my fair share of stumbles and falls.

But here’s the beautiful part about taking risks –

when you win, you elevate yourself, and you can LEAD others. Imagine being the person who took that leap, conquered the challenge, and now inspires others to take their own jumps! On the flip side, what happens when you don’t win? When you lose?

Well, my friends, that doesn’t mean you’ve failed; it means you have experience under your belt! And guess what?

That experience is priceless. You can turn around and guide others, sharing insights and wisdom that only come from trying and sometimes failing. Think about it: every great leader wasn’t born with a roadmap in hand. They earned their stripes through experiences, both good and bad. And if they hadn’t taken those risks, they wouldn’t be in a position to guide others effectively today.

PART 3 – Personal Stories/Examples

Let me share an example. A couple of years ago, I decided to attend a #networking event—one of those big fancy ones where I knew NO ONE. I almost didn’t go. The anxiety was real, but I pushed through. And? I ended up meeting someone who became a mentor.

So, in retrospect, that single risky decision opened doors I never even knew existed! Or what about that time I tried to launch a podcast? I didn’t win the first time. It flopped. But instead of giving up, I took a step back, analyzed what went wrong, and adjusted my strategy. Fast forward, I’m now proud to say that I have a growing audience and am fostering amazing conversations.

PART 4 – Call to Action/Conclusion

So, here’s what I want you to take away from all this: Don’t fear risk. Embrace it! Whether you win or lose, you gain something invaluable. Remember, if you win, you lead; if you lose, you guide. Next time you’re faced with a decision, whether it’s starting a new project, moving to a new city, or even speaking up in a meeting—take a breath, weigh the pros and cons, and then just GO for it!

I want to know… What risks have you taken that led to your biggest wins, or even your most valuable lessons? Drop those stories in the comments below! Let’s encourage one another to step outside our comfort zones because together, we can achieve incredible things.

Thanks for hanging out with me today! Until next time, keep taking those risks! You’ve got this!!

A Special Message for Christmas and New Year 2025

Hello, everyone! As we approach the end of another incredible year, I wanted to take a moment to connect with you all and share a special message as we celebrate the joy of the holiday season. 2025 is just around the corner, and I believe it’s the perfect time to reflect on our achievements, our growth, and the opportunities that lie ahead.

This year has been filled with unexpected challenges and remarkable achievements. I am truly grateful for each and every one of you in my network. Whether you’re a colleague, mentor, or someone I’ve had the pleasure of connecting with, your support and hard work have played a significant role in our shared success.

It’s astonishing to think about how we all persevered together through the uncertainties. I fondly remember moments of collaboration, innovation and, dare I say, even laughter that echoed through our virtual meetings. And let’s not forget the times when we all came together to lift each other’s spirits whenever the going got tough.

As we celebrate this holiday season, I invite you to take a moment to reflect on your own journey this year. What are you thankful for? What challenges have you overcome? Remember, gratitude is a powerful tool that fuels our motivation and inspires us to push forward.

As we step into 2025, let’s also look ahead. This new year symbolizes growth, resilience and fresh beginnings. It’s a blank canvas waiting to be filled with new ideas, strategies, and goals.

I encourage each of you to set meaningful intentions for this coming year – both personal and professional. Ask yourself what legacy you want to create in 2025. What kind of impact will you have on your team, your network, and the wider community?

For me, I’ve set my sights on [insert one or two personal or professional goals for 2025 – e.g., “fostering more meaningful connections,” “embarking on new projects that challenge my creativity,” or “contributing more to the community”. I hope that you will join me in this pursuit of growth.

So, as we wrap up 2024, let’s raise a glass – to collaboration, to overcoming hurdles and to each other. Cherish the moments of joy and let’s carry that spirit of enthusiasm into the new year.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year filled with joy, prosperity, and endless opportunities. Stay safe, and here’s to a remarkable 2025!

Are you stuck in trauma of ‘What will people say?’

Hi there, I’m NKS, welcome to The Female Story.  Today, we want to talk about a subject that weighs heavily on many of us, especially in the professional world: the trauma of worrying about what people will say. Have you felt that knot in your stomach when thinking about sharing an idea, a passion or even making a career decision, all because you fear judgment? You’re not alone.

I’ve been there, too. For years, I found myself paralyzed by this nagging thought – “What will they say?” Every time I thought about taking a leap, starting a new project or even expressing my true feelings, that fear crept in.

The Weight of Others’ Opinions

Let me take you back to a time when I considered sharing my first big idea with my colleagues. It was innovative, unique and I knew it had potential. But instead of stepping up, I hesitated. What if they laughed? What if they dismissed me? The fear of judgment held me hostage.

But here’s the thing: This fear is not just mine – it’s a collective experience. Many professionals are stuck in this cycle of self-doubt, paralyzed by thoughts of what others might think. And this can stifle our growth. Think about it: How many brilliant ideas have you held back because of the fear of criticism?

Breaking Free

So how do we break free from this cycle? The first step is acknowledgment. Recognizing that this fear is limiting us is crucial. No great innovation has ever come without some level of risk and potential critique.

Here’s what I did: I started approaching my fears with curiosity rather than hostility. Instead of thinking, “What will people say?” I began to ask myself, “What will I gain?” I reframed my mindset from fear to opportunity.

This shift allowed me to express my ideas more confidently. I found that people often want authenticity over perfection. And here’s a radical thought: When you open up and embrace your uniqueness, it creates space for others to do the same. Your vulnerability can inspire others to share their own ideas – ideas that may also change the game.

The Transformation

In embracing this mindset, I witnessed significant changes in my professional life. I became more confident in my presentations, more daring in my projects, and more open to constructive feedback. Instead of worrying about their opinions, I focused on collaboration and building a supportive network.

So, what’s holding you back? Are you stuck in the trauma of worrying about what people will say? I encourage you to take that first step toward breaking free. Start small – share an idea, express a feeling, or take a risk in your professional journey. You’ll be surprised how liberating it feels.

Remember, the world needs your unique voice. Embrace it, and let others see the real you. Let’s turn our fears into opportunities and revolutionize the way we interact and innovate together.

If this resonated with you, or if you know someone who might benefit from reading this message, please share this video. Let’s lift each other up, and transform our workplaces into safe havens of innovation and support. Thank you for watching, and until next time, keep shining!

Are you trying to be a beacon of resilience and passion!!

Hey there, Today, we want to talk about something that resonates deeply with all of us—resilience and passion. Now, we know what you might be thinking: ‘Not another motivational article!’ But stick with us for just a few minutes. We promise, this isn’t about empty platitudes; it’s about real-life experiences and how we can truly embody resilience in our personal and professional lives.

Let us take you back a little bit. A few years ago, we met Ms. Reshma (Imagine Name), she told her story that she found myself facing a challenging period in her career. She had just led a project that didn’t go as planned. It was a tough pill to swallow for her. The stakes were high and the disappointment was palpable – not just within herself, but among her team as well. It would have been easy to throw in the towel or let that setback define her, but… Reshma expressed that she chose a different path.

Here’s the first lesson she learned: embrace failure. It’s a part of the journey. Instead of wallowing in what went wrong, she reflected on what could be learned from it. She held a team meeting to discuss her team‘s missteps openly and surprisingly, it created a stronger bond within her team. They laid the groundwork for future resilience by learning not to fear failures but to view them as stepping stones to success.

Next, she explains more about what fuels that resilience: Passion. Find that ‘why’ that ignites our spirit. For her, discovering her true passions led to untapped potential; it connected her to her team and the organization’s bigger vision. She asked herself: What makes her wake up excited every morning?

Is it the joy of solving challenges, the thrill of collaboration or the drive to innovate? Whatever it is, harness it as our guiding light.

Now, we want to hear from you! What’s your ‘why’? Drop your thoughts in the comments below. How do you channel your resilience and passion in your career? Together, we can learn from one another, building a mosaic of strength.

And lastly, don’t underestimate the power of a strong support system. Surround yourself with resilient thinkers and passionate doers. When we was in that dark place post-setback, it was our mentor –  someone who faced their own share of challenges – who reminded us that resilience is contagious. We need each other to rise. Collaborate, share insights and encourage vulnerability. That’s how we uplift one another.

So as you go about your day, remember this: Be a beacon of resilience and passion. Embrace failure as your tutor, fuel your journey with purpose, and lean on one another as a community. Let’s not just survive; let’s thrive together. If you found any value in this article, please like, share and let’s keep this conversation going!

Practice like you never won and never lost

Have you ever had a moment where you felt invincible? Like nothing could stop you? But then, there are those days when everything seems to fall apart. I want to talk about how both of these feelings are essential to our journey and how we can harness them to not only practice like we’ve never won but to perform like we’ve never lost.

Let’s start with this concept of practicing like you’ve never won. What does that mean? For me, it’s about embracing humility in our practice. It’s easy to get comfortable with our achievements. When we clinch that promotion or successfully close a major deal, it’s tempting to rest on our laurels. But think about the greats. When I think of athletes like Michael Jordan or Serena Williams, what stands out is their relentless pursuit of improvement.

Imagine waking up every day with a mindset that says, ‘There’s always room for growth.’ They practice with the fire of someone who’s striving to prove themselves every single day. They remember the early mornings spent training, the setbacks, the moments of doubt. That’s how you build resilience, and that resilience translates into performance.

Now, let’s shift gears and talk about performing like we’ve never lost. This comes down to our mental approach during high-stakes moments. When we step into that meeting room or take the stage for a presentation, we need to project confidence, even if we’ve faced setbacks before.

Take it from my experiences. There have been times when I’ve walked into a presentation with a pit in my stomach, memories of past failures echoing in my mind. But what I learned is that how you carry yourself in those moments is crucial. When you perform as if winning is your default outcome, something powerful happens. Your body language shifts. Your energy changes. You create momentum, and suddenly, you become a magnet for success.

So, how do we merge these two mindsets? By continuously preparing ourselves to embrace the grind, the learning process, yet stepping forward with unwavering confidence during critical moments.

Here are three practical tips I use to practice like I’ve never won and perform like I’ve never lost:

1. Set Daily Challenges: Each day, challenge yourself with a new goal, whether it’s learning a new skill or tackling a difficult conversation.

2. Reflect on Setbacks: Take time to analyze your failures. What can you learn from them? How can they shape your next practice session?

3. Visualize Success: Before any performance, visualize yourself succeeding. Feel the rush of victory, the applause – but remember that it’s grounded in your hard work and dedication.

Remember, practicing like you’ve never won builds the habit of relentless improvement, while performing like you’ve never lost instills confidence and poise.

Let’s challenge ourselves and each other. What’s one way you can apply this dual mindset in your life today?

Share your thoughts in the comments and let’s inspire one another to keep pushing the limits. Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about the accolades; it’s about the journey of becoming the best version of ourselves every single day.

How to know our distractions and convert them into tractions

Hey everyone! Today, we want to talk about something that affects us all—distractions. We live in a world buzzing with notifications, meetings and endless to-do lists. But here’s the twist: what if I told you that these distractions could be transformed into powerful traction for your career? Let’s dive in!

Identifying Distractions

First, we need to recognize our distractions. They can be external, like social media notifications, or internal, like self-doubt. Personally, I realized that my biggest distractions were my smartphone and my scattered thoughts. You might relate; that scroll through LinkedIn, scrolling through posts, or checking emails every five minutes.

Starting today, I challenge you to identify your distractions. Grab a piece of paper and make a quick list of the things that pull your attention away from your goals. Stay mindful of what interrupts your flow—these can be anything from a noisy coworker to an influx of emails.

Understanding the Impact of Distractions

Now that we’ve identified the distractions, let’s talk about their impact. Here’s the kicker: distractions steal our time and mental resources, but they can also create opportunities.

When I realized that my distractions were preventing me from focusing on strategic projects, I had a breakthrough. I started to view those interruptions as indicators of what needed attention in my professional life. It propelled me to assess my tasks, reevaluate my priorities, and ultimately take better control of my time.

For instance, I began to categorize my distractions. Some were trivial—like mindlessly scrolling through LinkedIn. Others highlighted issues within my work environment that needed addressing, like lack of effective communication with my team.

Converting Distractions into Tractions

So, how do we convert distractions into traction? The first step is action. Create a ‘distraction ledger’ where you can note distractions daily, but also record how you responded. Did you let it consume your time, or did you pivot toward intentional tasks?

For example, if you find yourself distracted by social media, set specific time blocks for it—say 15 minutes for LinkedIn after every productive hour. My results have been transformative; instead of scrolling mindlessly, I use that time to engage meaningfully. I even connect with industry professionals and learn from their stories.

You can take it a step further. Focus your distractions into actionable insights. Create projects, work on networking—with each time you recognize a moment of distraction, train your brain to pivot by asking, ‘How can I turn this into something productive?’

Remember, distractions are not enemies; they’re signals. They compel us to adjust our focus and harness our energy. Recognize, redirect, and reclaim!

I encourage you all to apply this approach. Start by tracking your distractions this week and think critically about how they can guide you toward your goals. I’d love to hear your experiences—what distractions have you turned into traction?

Every setback is a lesson not a failure

Hello, everyone. Today, we want to talk about something we all face in our personal and professional lives—setbacks. Yes, those moments when things don’t go according to plan. But what if we told you that every setback is actually a lesson, not a failure?

We know many of you are ambitious, driven, and eager to succeed. But let’s be real: setbacks are part of the journey. The difference between those who thrive and those who stagnate often comes down to mindset.

Let us take you back a few years ago. Mrs. Radhika(Imagine Name) was working on a high-stakes project that she believed would elevate her career. She poured countless hours into planning and execution. But when the project launched, it failed to deliver the results we anticipated. She felt devastated. The voices of doubt crept in: “Was she not good enough? Did she make the wrong decisions?”

She was stuck in a whirlpool of self-blame, but then she took a step back. She realized she had two choices: She could dwell on this setback or use it as a stepping stone for future success. That’s when it hit me—setbacks aren’t failures; they are teaching moments waiting to be unpacked.

Let’s break down what she told that she learned from that experience.

First lesson: Reflection is key.

After the dust settled, she spent time analyzing what went wrong. She asked herself tough questions: What could she have done differently? What were the signals she missed? By understanding the causes of the setback, she transformed it into valuable feedback for the future.

Second lesson: Adaptability is your superpower.

After her project failed, she shifted her focus to adapting her methods and tactics. This isn’t about throwing everything away; it’s about enhancing your approach based on what you’ve learned. Noticing patterns in her initial failure allowed her to pivot effectively and chase new opportunities that eventually paid off.

Third lesson: Leverage your network.

She explains that she reached out to colleagues and mentors, candidly sharing her setbacks. Their insights helped her see angles she hadn’t considered. This community of support reminded her that she wasn’t alone in facing challenges—and often, others had been through similar storms.

So here’s her message to you: Every setback you encounter is NOT a failure; it’s a lesson waiting to be learned. Embrace it. Analyze, adapt, and connect.

Next time you find yourself facing a setback, remember: the way you react to it can redefine your path to success. What are some lessons you’ve learned from your setbacks? Share your experiences in the comments!

You will find the way of Solution by Identify your fear!!

Hey there, Today, we want to dive deep into a topic that touches each and every one of us: fear. Yes, fear – the invisible wall that sometimes holds us back from achieving our greatest aspirations. Let’s explore how identifying, understanding and ultimately accepting our fears can lead us to powerful solutions.

We are sure you’ve felt that knot in your stomach before a big presentation or the hesitation before pressing ‘send’ on an important email. Believe us, we’ve been there. But here’s what we can learn: fear is not our enemy. It’s a signal, a pointer that highlights areas we need to address in our personal and professional lives.

So, how do we tackle fear? First, we have to identify it. Ask yourself: What exactly am I afraid of? Is it failure? Rejection? Or perhaps the fear of the unknown? Take a moment to pause and reflect. I remember when I had to face significant changes at work. I realized my fear was rooted in the uncertainty of my career path. Once you identify the fear, you bring it into the light and that’s where transformation begins.

Next, we need to understand our fear. This part takes a bit of soul-searching. Delve into the ‘why’. Ask yourself, ‘Why do I feel this way?’ Sometimes, our fears stem from past experiences, or even opinions of others. Understanding the root can empower you to take control of your narrative. You become the author of your own story.

I remember one of my first pitches as a young professional. My fear of being dismissed was overwhelming. Instead of letting it paralyze me, I spent time understanding the source – it came from a childhood experience of being overlooked in groups. Acknowledging this helped me reframe my mindset: I realized my voice had value and that fear was simply a reminder to step more boldly into my capabilities.

Now comes the vital step: acceptance. Accept that fear is a natural human emotion. It doesn’t signal weakness; rather, it signifies growth. Acceptance allows us to say, ‘Okay, I feel this fear, but I won’t let it control my actions.’ Embrace it and recognize it as part of your journey. When I accepted my fear of rejection, it became a stepping stone. I started applying for opportunities outside my comfort zone and found new paths I never imagined possible.

And now, for the most exciting part: the solutions to overcoming the fear that once held you back! Once you’ve done the work to identify, understand and accept your fears, you can begin seeking solutions. Whether it’s enrolling in a course, seeking mentorship, or setting up small, achievable goals – these are the building blocks to overcoming barriers.

We encourage you to take action today. Write down your fears, understand their roots and accept them as part of your journey. Reach out to your network, share your journey, and ask for support. You’ll be amazed at how many people resonate with your experience and are willing to help you along the way.

In closing, remember this: fear is not your foe, but your guide. By embracing it, we unlock the door to resilience, growth, and endless possibilities. Thank you for reading, and let’s continue this journey together – where fear becomes a stepping stone to success.
