    anxiety /aŋˈzʌɪəti/ noun  “a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease about something with an uncertain outcome.” Well, Anxiety is much more than what google defines it to be. It is more than just a feeling of worry or nervousness. Anxiety is like a voice in your mind, with thoughts rotating in circles, getting louder and louder each time, until it gets to a point where you start hating yourself and questioning your abilities. Your psychological state is more important than the exam, the interview, the lunch, the family dinner, the office meeting or any other run for that matter.  Figure yourself out. You are not alone. You should never be ashamed of something you are going through because most of us are struggling with something. The outward appearance might not show it but internally we are all fighting a battle.  Do not listen to the negativity being spewed around you, You are doing your best and that is all that matters. Stay strong. And always remember, there are

    Secularity: A myth

    Yesterday, while I was out with my friend, standing outside another friend's place, I experienced something that has brought splashes of thoughts in my head since then.

But the reason he was shouting that, was because I was standing there, in a hijab, and he thought I belonged to Pakistan. The incident may sound funny, but when you look at the dar

    Walk your talk.. One step at a time!

    Do you claim health is important to you–then skip the gym for 6 weeks? Do you believe being productive is important, but work only on the night before a deadline? Do you believe relationships are important but let your social life stagnate? How do you close that gap between what you value and how you behave? I’m far from perfect. Like everyone, I make mistakes and often fail to live up to the things I consider important. Imperfections are part of life. I think it’s sad that some people feel that because being perfectly consistent with your values is impossible, that there is no point trying to debug the inconsistencies. Some self-improvement cynicism is the result of demanding the impossible, expecting perfection instead of progress. Unlike a computer program, your software can never have zero-defects. Instead, try to think of self-improvement as trying to reach 98% bug-free. You will inevitably fail to meet your values some of the time, but those errors won’t matter too much in the lo
