Time to Trust…Contributed by Gul Kripalani

| Chandru Gidwani

. "When is the time to trust?
Is it when all is calm,
When waves the victor’s palm,
And life is one great psalm
Of joy and praise?
Nay! but the time to trust
Is when waves beat high,
When storm clouds fill the sky,
And prayer is one long cry,
O help and save!

When is the time to trust?
Is it when friends are true?
Is it when comforts woo,
And in all we say and do
We must but praise?
Nay! but the time to trust
Is when we stand alone,
And summer birds have flown,
And every prop is gone,
All else but God.

What is the time to trust?
Is it some future day,
When you have tried your way,
And learned to trust and pray
By bitter woe?
Nay! but the time to trust
Is in this moment’s need,
Poor,broken,bruised reed!
Poor,troubled soul,make speed
To trust thy God.

What is the time to trust?
Is it when hopes beat high,
When sunshine gilds the sky,
And joy and ecstasy
Fill all the hearts?
Nay! but the time to trust
Is when our joy is fled,
When sorrow bows the head,
And all is cold and dead,
All else but God."

Your real life partner…Bhagavad Gita

| Chandru Gidwani

In Bhagavad Gita lord Sri Krishna says:

*Your real life partner is Your Body.*
Once your body stops responding no one is with you.
You and your body stay together from Birth till Death.
What you do to your body is your responsibility and that will come back to you.
The more you care for your body, the more your body will care for you.
What you eat, what you do for being fit, how you deal with stress, how much rest you give to it; will decide how your body is going to respond.
*Remember your body is the only permanent address where you live.*
Your body is your asset/liabilty, which no one else can share. Your body is your responsibility. Because, you are the real life partner.
*Be fit forever. Take care yourself. Money comes & goes.
*Remember no one can help your body other than you.*
*Pranayama – for Lungs*
*Meditation – for Mind*
*Yogasana – for Body*
*Walking – for Heart*
*Good food – for Intestines*
*Good thoughts – for the Soul*
*Good Karma – for the World*

One Tiny Yet Hard Step You Need to Take for Yourself….Marc and Angel

| Chandru Gidwani

Doing the hard yet necessary things to resolve your issues and heal your wounds can feel impossible at times. This is how Marc and I felt just over a decade ago when we were knocked down and stuck in a rut after simultaneously losing two loved ones — including my dear brother— to suicide and illness. It was nearly impossible to move anywhere significant when we didn’t feel we had the strength to push forward.

If you’re kinda feeling this way right now — like it’s impossible to make significant progress — you aren’t wrong for feeling what you feel. You’re 100% right: significant progress comes gradually with time and consistency, regardless of your circumstances. It’s all about taking one tiny positive step at a time, and staying the course…

The Power of Tiny Changes

Think about the fact that it only takes a one degree change in temperature to convert water to vapor, or ice to water. It’s such a tiny change — just one step in a different direction — and yet the results are dramatic. A tiny change can make all the difference in the world.

Now, consider another example where a tiny change is compounded by time and distance. Perhaps you’re trying to travel somewhere specific, but you’re off course by just one tiny degree in the wrong direction…

  • If you were trying to travel from San Francisco to Washington, D.C., you would land near Baltimore, Maryland, over 42 miles away from your desired destination.
  • Traveling around the world from Washington, D.C. back to Washington D.C., you’d miss by 435 miles and end up landing near Boston instead.
  • In a spaceship traveling to the moon, a one-degree error would have you missing the moon by over 4,100 miles.

You get the idea — over time and distance, a mere one-degree change in course makes a significant difference…

This same philosophy holds true in various aspects of our lives. The tiniest things we do each day — positive and negative alike — can make all the difference. They either bring us closer or farther away from where we ultimately want to be. And yet, we mostly ignore this reality. We default to behaving as if our daily actions won’t ever be significant enough. Or we try to exert control over the bigger things we have no control over.

Think about it…

  • How many people uphold unhealthy and unproductive habits?
  • How many people procrastinate on the next positive step?
  • How many people live every day of their lives moving one degree away from where they ultimately want to be?

Don’t be one of them anymore!

Truth be told, everyone travels 24 hours a day, whether they’re moving in the right direction or not.

Is this email your wake up call?

How many times have you thought “this isn’t working” or “something is not right” or “things have to change”? — those thoughts and words are from your inner voice. It’s your wake-up call calling. You don’t need more stress or a major crisis to wake up. And no one needs to tell you because you already know. Your inner voice has been trying to tell you, but in case it’s been a challenge to find time and space to listen through the chaos, maybe you’ll resonate with one of these situations.

  • If your life is aimlessly on auto-pilot, this is your wake-up call.
  • If you never put yourself first, this is your wake-up call.
  • If you’ve become someone you don’t recognize to please other people or to chase some version of success that doesn’t resonate with you, this is your wake-up call.
  • If you are constantly numbing out with food, shopping, booze, TV, or other distractions, this is your wake-up call.
  • If you are worn down, beat up, stressed out, and completely depleted, this is your wake-up call.

Getting your wake-up call is not the hard part, answering the call is. Choosing to answer the call instead of ignoring it is hard. Right now, it may feel easier to keep going, and going, and going gradually in the wrong direction. But you know if you don’t find a way out of the endless cycle you’re in, it’s going to get worse.
