Happy New Year to everyone to start with.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"one\"<\/p>\n

Year 2014 been amazing in following ways :<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Joined The New Stack, working on building community & writing occasionally.<\/p>\n

2. Sister got married to one of the smartest kid I have met so far in 20+ odd years of my life.<\/p>\n

3. Moved to Bangalore after staying in Mumbai for over an year.<\/p>\n

4. Made few amazing friends & lost some others.<\/p>\n

5. Traveled to over 20 cities across 10+ states in India.<\/p>\n

6. Finally made trip to Kathmandu to meet awesome entrepreneurs in town written a post on same here\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

7. Read over dozen books which helped me in finding answer to “what i really want from my life?”<\/p>\n

8. Most of my friends either married or blessed with kids.<\/p>\n

What I learnt from 2014 :<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Its about happiness – We are so busy with so many external needs that we totally forget about our happiness.<\/p>\n

2. Love yourself, life depends on it – I read book written by kamal ravikant<\/a>\u00a0a must read for everyone. The book tells you one thing, love yourself, your body, your mental well being.<\/p>\n

3. Money – It is not everything, it will come and go.<\/p>\n

4. Empathy – Before jumping on any conclusion understand the situation of one sitting on other side of table.<\/p>\n

5. Love\/Relationship – It will never happen the way they show you \u00a0in bollywood or in fairytales.<\/p>\n

6. Time as a healer – All it takes is some amount of time to fix everything.<\/p>\n

7. Do what you love – Don’t live in this world\/job\/relationship\/agreement for sake of it. Move on, get out of it if you are not enjoying it or its only for your EMI or 5 star hotel bills.<\/p>\n

8. Mentors – I am lucky to get few awesome mentors who are always there to help me when i am stuck with any difficulty.<\/p>\n

9. Ask for it – Last not the least, this i learnt after following \u00a0posts, books, podcasts of\u00a0jamesaltucher<\/a>\u00a0You need to ask from them what you need without counting on probability of success or failure.<\/p>\n

Plan for 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Stay happy \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

2. Love myself & take good care of my health. If possible loose few kilos.<\/p>\n

3. Continue with my traveling spree.<\/p>\n

Last not the least\u00a0<\/strong>
