  • Harry Potter writer JK Rowling on Failure - Why you should not fear failure?

    “It is impossible to live without failing at something unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all – in which case, you fail by default.” J.K. Rowling.

    This podcast explains the real definition of failure. We have to see failure as it is. Failure is inevitable and if taken property it can be a boon, a blessing as well. Failure is an opportunity for us to improve ourselves. It is not a permanent state, it is just a milestone in our journey towards success.

  • Quote by Lee Haney on importance of small steps explained - Why slow and steady wins the race?

    Quote by Lee Haney goes like this "Exercise to stimulate, not to annihilate. The world wasn't formed in a day, and neither were we. Set small goals and build upon them."

    If you want to achieve something that is big, something that you have never done before then there is nothing wrong with it at all. All you have to understand that the 1st step is one of the most important ones. You have to understand the fact that it is better to walk if you can't run. It is better to give yourself some extra time so that you can build a good base. Too much rush will drain you out soon. So the best strategy is to do what you are capable of doing today. Do not burn yourself out in one go. Instead take small, steady steps continuously and keep moving ahead.

  • Swami Vivekananda quote on self development and growth
    Swami Vivekananda said "You have to grow from the inside out. None can teach you, none can make you spiritual. There is no other teacher but your own soul." Here Swami Vivekananda is shaking us to wake us up from a deep slumber. Many of us are stuck in an illusion that someone or something from the outer world will help us grow, help us develop, help us become more and more spiritual. But here Swami presses the right button, that no one, but only your soul can be your guiding light. Here there is no space for any 'if' or 'but'. Vivekananda's words are spot on and precise that only you can be your guiding light.

  • Lord Buddha's most important preaching

    When we face problems or challenges in our life, we run after big solutions. Our society has programmed us in such a way, that these days we do not believe that big problems can be solved by small solutions. We have even forgotten that a big padlock is opened by a small key only. This podcast is about shaking our inner self. It is about de-programming ourselves from the false doctrines of our society and installing the right software that Lord Buddha has created and given us. Enjoy the story of Birdsnest, stay Curious.

    “Games are lost or won in the final hours due to mistakes caused by fatigue” - Magnus Carlsen Norwegian chess Grandmaster. Fatigue is an energy vampire. One of the biggest side effects of fatigue is worries. By the end of the day, many of us are not able to achieve our daily targets and we feel that it is due to lack of willpower or dedication.

This podcast will burst the myth that our heart works 24/7 without any break. Do you know how Sir Winston Churchill, in his late 60s and early 70s was able to work 16 hours per day for full 5 years?
