  • Why and How I Fail with my Routines...

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome back to the Unfoldlearning Podcast! This week's check-in video is a bit different from our usual episodes. Today, I’m diving into the messy, hilarious, and sometimes frustrating world of "routines" – and how I’ve hilariously failed at sticking to them. But don’t worry, this isn’t another “how to create the perfect routine” spiel. Instead, I'm sharing my journey of constant failure and what I’ve finally figured out that actually works for me.

    Ever felt like you’re the only one who can’t stick to a routine? Spoiler: You’re not alone! In this candid, no-edits, one-take video, I talk about:

    1. The endless struggle to stick to a routine and why it’s so darn difficult.
    2. My personal fails with time tables, the 80-20 rule, and countless templates.
    3. Realizing that copying others’ routines doesn’t work for me.
    4. How I stopped stressing over rigid schedules and embraced a more flexible framework.
    5. My new approach: focusing on three themes – THINK, FEEL, DO – to make my days more fulfilling.

    Join me as I laugh at my own routine disasters and share how I finally found a way to structure my day that feels right. Whether you’re a fellow routine-failure or just looking for a fresh perspective, this video is for you.

  • Learn the skill to Zoom-Out and focus on What really Matters

    Send us Fan Mail

    In. today's check-in, I will share with you - How Zooming Out Transforms Your Perspective: Clarity, Purpose & Growth 

    Ever feel like you're stuck in the trenches of daily life, overwhelmed with distractions and doubt? This week, I realised the power of zooming out - taking a step back to gain clarity and reconnect with your true purpose. Through my journey, I learned that asking yourself WHY you're doing something brings a whole new perspective. It's not about seeking validation or control; it's about focusing on the process and serving a greater purpose. 

    Did you Knao, that ancient teachings from the Geeta, emphasise focusing on your karma without worrying about the outcome? In this check-in video, I'll share practical steps on how to zoom out, refocus and find peace amidst the chaos. Remember, we're all just dots on this globe - everything is temporary, and this shall too pass.

  • Why your Wins Feel Lonely? Do you have people with who you can share your happiness and success?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome back to the channel Unfoldlearning Podcast where we dive into all things self-discovery and personal development, breaking those pesky stereotypes, and learning to be kind to ourselves along the way. 

    This is your Host Kaustav, An Engineer turned into a School Teacher, A Trainer, An HR professional and now in pursuit of  Content Creation with you All...  

    Today, we're peeling back the curtain on a topic that doesn't get nearly enough air time: the loneliness of success, joy and happiness. Yep, you heard that right.

    Ever noticed how, when you're down and struggling, there's no shortage of folks ready to lend a sympathetic ear or a shoulder to cry on? Misery loves company, as they say. It’s almost as if we’re more comfortable rallying around someone's hardships than celebrating their wins. But let's flip the script—what happens when you start crushing it, when the success you've worked so hard for finally starts rolling in?

    You'd think the confetti would be flying and the champagne corks popping, right? Wrong. Suddenly, your phone goes suspiciously quiet. Friends who were once a call away seem to have vanished into thin air. It's as if happiness and success have become a taboo topic. Why is it so hard to find people who are genuinely happy for you when you're doing well?

    Here's the thing: your success can unintentionally highlight someone else's insecurities. It's not about you; it's about them. Maybe they see your success as a mirror reflecting their perceived shortcomings. Or perhaps, they’ve bought into the scarcity mindset—thinking that there’s only so much happiness to go around.

    But let’s be real. Success is not a pie. There's enough to go around for everyone. Celebrating each other’s victories should be a norm, not an exception. So, what do you do when you feel like you're on an island of your own triumphs? First off, recognize that it’s okay to outgrow people. Your journey of self-discovery and personal development might take you places where not everyone can follow, and that's perfectly fine. Surround yourself with those who uplift and inspire you, even if it means finding new circles.

    Secondly, be that person who celebrates others. Lead by example. The more we embody this mindset, the more we encourage it in our communities. And finally, be compassionate with yourself. It’s easy to fall into the trap of self-doubt when others aren’t celebrating with you, but remember that your worth isn’t determined by external validation.

    So, let's break these stereotypes together. Let’s create a culture where we’re just as comfortable cheering for success as we are supporting through struggle. Share your thoughts in the comments—have you experienced this loneliness of success? How do you navigate it?

    Until next time, keep discovering, keep growing, and keep being kind to yourself. If you enjoyed this video, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit that notification bell so you never miss an episode.
