The word vivid and stylish says it all, it’s not just a healthy lifestyle or how to live longer or
being healthy, it has more into it than to be just “fit”.
“Taking care of oneself” is what our motto is all about. It
is my personal belief that if you have an
interest in yourself by looking after
your own wellbeing and how the world sees you are
actually building a person who will be then a much better care-giver, supporter
and empathetic to others. This person will not be a burden on others, society
or the world at large. He or she will be the person who will always be there
for others whenever someone needs him or her, may it be children, spouses,
friends or other loved ones.
Don’t we all want to be “needed” and to outreach to others,
or at least we think about it all the time, but how many of us ever actually
became such kind of person. Being selfless, helping others in time of need and
be a good parent, friend, neighbor, colleague or even sibling is what we have
on our bucket list, but seldom ever we accomplish all of our goals of being compassionate.
Many people will argue that looking after oneself is a
selfish thing, but to me, it is the most
selfless attitude you will ever develop. When you are healthy, smart,
attractive, fit, stylish, accomplished, sober, and being seen as benevolent,
this is where you are the most valuable for others. As a Chinese philosopher, Chuang Tzu once said: “The perfect man of old looked after
himself first before looking to help others.” Coping with life is good, but
managing your life is a much better phrase I will use. The renowned
psychologist Sigmund Freud said, “Being extremely honest with oneself is a good
exercise”, and as we all know, honesty is
the best policy, right?
It was my idea to talk with people at large about this, and
with mutual discussion, tries to streamline the lives of individuals,
especially women, who want to be there for others, but because of a lack of
focus, self-confidence, a want for self-esteem, and/or purely because of
scarcity of interest in one, that they fall short.
I am trying to make this blog a unique place in several
different ways:
Ø
I will write freely here, quoting experts,
bringing new ideas, researching other blogs, etc.
Ø
I invite all of you out there to be a part of
this, either comment on what others have
written or start a new topic by yourself. Other than discriminatory
geographical, religious, linguistic or racial comments,
everything will be published uncensored.
Ø
Everyone,
especially women are encouraged to register with us and have a one-to-one video
talk on Skype. Their personal problems will be highlighted and discussed.
Moreover, we can have video conferences.
Ø
This blog is not meant for methods and advice for a healthy lifestyle, nor is it ways
to teach you this and that. This is a personalized, individualized place for
someone who wants to share, talk and prepare to let go of the burden. Revitalization and revolutionary
approach in stylish fitness taken to the grass-root
level, one person (especially one woman) at a time.
Ø
Weekly, a live video blogging will go on, which
either will involve other people through comments or through Skype to take part
in it.
This is my belief that
people are out there who are not only in need of help, but there are several
people who are totally willing to help others and as I always say, “Together
we’ll do it!” So let’s get started.
Please remember two things before we delve into it that
although women are a person of interest
in this blog, men are free to join and are particularly welcomed. Secondly,
although, the blog is written in English, videos, Skype or weekly live
telecasts will be available in English, Urdu, and Hindi.
