Me, My Stars, and Other Things

I will definitely not say that I am not loving this year. I will also not say that I am not liking it either. The initial trends aren't very positive but it would be too premature to comment at this point in time and I am a very very data-driven person.

When I say data-driven, I do not mean that I spend my day working on spreadsheets and then dream about them at night. What I mean is, if something is coming out of my mouth, it will have some data behind it. Like, for instance, I may say that 93% of the people reading my blog love my blog. So 93% is a data point. But is it credible data? Well, did I ever say it was? But does that mean it wasn't?

Who knows!

Having said that, and I am not sure why I said what I said (more like wrote), 2022 has been a hell of a roller coaster. I am not even sure what is wrong with this year that it's giving me an entire year's worth of action well within the first 10 days of January. The last I checked- I had a decently dull life. I am surprised why this year is hell-bent on spicing it up.

The good thing though is that I am being extremely positive. You'll be surprised but I am a firm believer in astrology and numerology as science forms. They are really good, some really good Math and Philosophy combined and I trust the predictions too. I don't believe in the Ganesha Speaks column though- it never turned out true for me but I did read Maa Prem Usha's Tarot that used to come in Hindustan Times on Sunday. I really looked forward to them. Not going to lie, I wear a stone too- not sure what it is called but I wear it and I feel it is good at its job. I also believe in the science of Vastu and n number of other things and I will do everything in my power to remain positive because positivity breeds positivity or so I feel.

For instance, I am seriously chicken-hearted. One not so good thing is enough to send me into a spiral of overthinking and misery. But then, just like when Voldemort was messing with Harry and everyone was telling the latter to think of the good thoughts, well I do that too. I meant the Harry bit of thinking positives. It's really tough but then, one littlest of the positive things sends me into an upward spiral. The spiral is constant though.

Recently, I started the operations of Vidyaa-O-Samman Kendra again. We took a small space and we have already seen a good increase in the number. We shot up from 3 to 9 kids within a week and the way the pace is, I might hire a teacher soon. I may not do that as well- but who stopped us from dreaming.

I absolutely love building these scenarios in my mind about amazing things that I can do in my life. A lot of times, I work towards them as well, sometimes, I don't have the bandwidth so I put them to be picked up later.

In any case, I try and be happy, and as my numerologist said- 2022 is the year when whatever you will keep saying to yourself, you'll make that happen! So, I am saying good things- you can try that too!

BTW- I share my numerologist with Rohit Shetty :P (Really, I do!)
