Childhood These days, our children's don't have time for extracurricular activities, outdoor sport, stories and any kind of other positive activities that are not related to education or particularly schooling. Parents don't like or appreciate children who show their interest in such activities. Majority of parents expect from their children to participate in the rat race, a race of unseen destination. Every day, our children's go to school with heavy bags on their shoulders. They spent their day in school with a single core purpose, to memorise facts and figures presented in books and to memorise the words of the teacher. Our schooling system doesn't allow them to think, to ask a question and to raise their opposite voice. Teachers and schools encourage cramming system. Why? Because this system enables students to get good marks and grade. I am total against all this. I believe that it doesn't matter if my daughter gets the first position in class or tenth. The success of school exam doesn't matter at all, she should succeed in life's exam. When I say success, it never means the definition of success told by a motivational speaker or life guru. Each and every one of us should define our success and try our best to achieve that. We also need to remember this that if we set our destination and start our journey and never stop or look back this is the success. Please don't connect success with destination, the continuous journey is the actual success.

Unschooling Around 20 years ago, on my first day of school, I know everything that students in my village school learn in the first year. I learn all that at my home in my preschool days. Although I know everything, I spent my whole year learning same blah blah stuff because of my class fellows. This is not just first-year story. In my school days, I face this issue a lot of the time. Lot of new things that I can easily learn in a day or two, because of this schooling system, I spent weeks and month on that. Let me tell you another side of the story, one of my nephew study in a well-reputed school in our local town. He is intelligent and performs well in almost all subject other than Math. If a normal student learns a math concept in a week, he may need a month to learn that. But the school can't wait for them, school teach them with class no matter he learned that concept fully or not, they will promote them. This is just one reason, there are hundred and thousand reason why we should not send our children to school. We need to understand that no one in the world can teach our children better than us. If you need guidance at any point there is google, youtube, Quora, TEDx and hundreds of other sources to learn from.

Rebellion When you go against the norms of society, it is called rebellion. Rebellion against society demands its prices and you pay it. Usually, the first price you pay is loneliness. During this rebellion act, some people stand with you, they are praiseworthy. Here one point should be clear, rebellion and standing with rebel are two totally different act. You never expect peoples who stand with a rebel that at some stage in their life they will do some act of rebellion against the norms of society. The fact is that those people usually don't have the courage that is necessary for any kind of rebellion. Telling someone about good deeds and doing that deeds are two different things. Similarly, if someone is stopping you from corruption, robbery or any kind of other bad deeds; don't expect that he himself will never ever do those things in their life. Sometime, you will do an act of goodness and someone from your close circle will appreciate you out of the box. But never wait that he will provide you with a chance of appreciation for himself by doing a same or similar act of goodness. In short, we are living in a hypocritical society and we still need centuries to come out of it.

Stand in love Falling in love is very easy, standing in love is a bit hard. Opposite attract, this is natural. Every one of us falls in love in their life. According to eastern culture, the happy ending of this love is marriage. Unfortunately, this happy ending cause lot of problems soon after honeymoon period and people start blaming love marriages for that. Love marriages are not the cause of problems, we are. We can easily avoid these problems if we stand in love. We need to understand that no one is perfect, everyone has both positive and negative sides of their personalities. We can stand in love if our partner has just one positive thing, we just need to neglect hundred or thousand negative aspects of their personalities. If we stop for a minute and think about our life partner, we will find that the person we think has millions of negative aspects have a lot of positive things we never consider. Think about those positive things and if you fall in love once, stand in love forever. You start loving your life partner today, sooner or later you will get your love back. Once you both start getting love in your life, life becomes so lovely and everything will be beautiful.

Uncertainty Uncertainty is a major factor that holds us to move forward. In our life, we want to achieve some extraordinary milestone. We also have abilities to achieve those. But Uncertainty stops us to do that. I also face this fear a lot of time in my life. Different project that I want to complete successfully was not even started due to uncertainty factor. For example, I want to promote my business by writing epic content but I didn't write or even try to write because of this uncertainty factor. Fear of English, fear of writing, fear of judging, what people think about my English? What do they think about me? They will laugh at me, maybe they like my content, maybe not. These are different uncertain conditions, that hold me to write something. I find two solutions to stop the fear of this uncertainty. 1. Whatever you want to do, do. Face the fear of doing that project, feel that fear and very soon after, your fear will vanish. 2. Break your bigger goal or project into small tasks and complete those small tasks one by one. Don't try to run a marathon on day one. Don't try to write 2000 words article on the very first day, write just 200 words and press publish.
