Dearest Darling Friends,

 

 

A few weeks ago I started Keto diet. My diet had no carbs, no sugar, no fruits, no milk, no ghee…lots of leafy vegetables, and lots of protein.

 

 

When people came to know about it for the first time, they cheered me on. They exclaimed, how my will power is so powerful. They were full of positivity and words of admiration flowed from all corners.

 

 

In a few days, the very same people who could not stop gushing about me, were not even noticing my will power. My ‘earlier new’ had now become ‘just normal’.

 

 

It was easy to continue when I was feted and adored. When words of admiration and awe stopped, I kind of felt lost and alone. When I was getting the attention, I had started to think, I will continue to receive the same attention for similar performance. When I did not get that, I felt let down.

 

 

Doubts whispered me to stop the difficult diet. That is when I found the strength of my inner voice.

 

 

Every time my inner voice heard my doubts, it became louder and drowned the doubts. The battle was won and I successfully completed the Keto diet.

 

 

From this experience, I learnt a few super important life lessons:

 

 

* New soon becomes normal.

 

 

*New gets attention, normal does not.

 

 

*Attention gives this wrong feeling that it is going to stay forever.

 

 

*When doubts whisper, drown it with the power of your inner positive voice.

 

 

*When people stop caring…develop your voice

 

 

With love, prayers and exceptional wishes,

Imagine, when we wake up, we are given only what we had thanked for.
