Creating work-life balance is a daily struggle.

Here's the system I use to manage my time and energy between
• family (wife & 6 kids)
• work (CEO of a non-profit)
• personal time (hybrid athlete)

In the hope that this is useful to you too:

 But before we dive into it, none of this would be possible without my wife. She is the hero of our family and the best mother a child could wish for.

Successful work-life balance means both of us having the time and energy to pursue our goals.
1) Info Capture & To-Dos

You’re being bombarded with information:

• To-Dos
• Meeting notes
• Study assignments
• Gift idea for your spouse
• Online articles you want to read later

Without solid info capture, you’ll get overwhelmed.
During my PhD studies, I used Evernote and Things and now I use Notion.

The most important parts of your info capture are:

• it is readily available
• quick to enter info
• searchable

Choose one that fits these criteria and don’t waste time finding the ‘perfect’ tool.
2) Time Blocking

Having a to-do list is a start. But you need to block out time in your calendar, to do them.

It seems restrictive at first, but the more you assign blocks of time to specific items, the more freedom you create.

Here’s mine:
3) Morning Routine

When your day is filled with work and family obligations, it is easy to simply go through the motions.

But living life on cruise control stops you from becoming a better version of yourself.

Fix this by building a solid morning routine.
This is my typical morning:

04:55 Alarm
05:05 Glass of water, read affirmations
05:10 Coffee, journalling
05.25 Check calendar & to-dos for today
05:45 Workout
06:30 Meal prep for the family & get ready for the day
08:00 School run
4) Why & Affirmations

Often we forget the bigger picture when life is just so busy and we get pulled in a million directions.

Start your day by recalling your “Why” to ensure you design your days in support of your life's purpose.

(Mine: to master myself in service of others)
I used to limit myself through negative self-talk. Now I start my days with affirmations to set the right tone.

Affirmations can:
• increase your confidence
• help you focus on your goals
• help build new positive beliefs
• guide you to who you want to become
5) Evening Routine

Tomorrow’s success depends on how you end today.

• Determine how many hours of sleep you need
• Set an alarm 60mins before bedtime
• Check your calendar for tomorrow
• Turn off devices → no blue lights
• Lay out your clothes
• Pack your bag
6) Weekly Review

But for your system to work, you need to schedule a weekly review.

Here’s a 3-step overview:
1/ GET CLEAR

Check everything under your control:

- loose papers, receipts & lists
- inboxes (digital and & physical)
- capture everything on your mind
- review journal entries, meeting notes, etc

Get all your inboxes to zero. Schedule tasks or delegate where appropriate.
2/ GET CURRENT

Review your To-Dos, Calendar and Projects.

- review your past week
- review your upcoming week
- go through your weekly checklists
- check on the progress of your projects
- mark off finished to-dos and re-assign unfinished ones
3/ GET CREATIVE

Review your Someday lists and items with no clear deadlines.

- any personal goals you want to plan for?
- dormant projects that need to be activated?
- new learning opportunities you want to pursue?

This stage allows you to review your life more broadly.
Bonus

I created a basic template of my system (incl. morning & evening routines, journal prompts and a weekly review template).

You can download it for free here:

7) Energy Management

All the time management won’t get you anywhere if you’re out of energy.

You need to dedicate time to regular exercise, eat well, spend time outdoors and relax.

It’s about creating a healthy lifestyle which takes care of your physical and mental health.
That's a wrap!

RISHI PINGALA:THE ANCIENT INDIAN SAGE DISCREDITED FOR HIS MAJOR CONTRIBUTIONS TO MATHEMATICS & PHI

Have you ever heard about,"The Golden Ratio"?
The Golden Ratio or Phi(Greek) is a mathematical ratio of nature. Mother Nature is the most exquisite artist in herself.


&Its this Phi she uses to create all the beauty in World.
If anyone uses this ratio correctly in their art,it can turn into a spell-binding piece of work.Such is the significance of'Phi'.But my thread isn't about it.Its about somethin called'Fibonacci Series'&who actually made it


Phi is related to Fibonacci series(0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...)
&this series is responsible for everything dat is beautiful on this planet. Just try to calculate the ratio of any 2 successive numbers ÷ each of them by the number before it in above infinite series.

E.g. 3/2=1.5, 5/3=1.666, 8/5=1.6, 34/21=1.61904 and so on. Did you notice something? The ratio is coming almost same every time. This ratio is called 'Phi 'which is numerically represented as 1:1.618. This Golden Spiral is made in exact proportion of 1:1.618.


The thing I want to emphasize here is that we always find only those things appealing and attractive that have Phi. It's in our subconscious. Isn't it some revelation? We are the part of this Divine proportion of the God or the Mother Nature. Check these:

Cortisol will ruin you

If you let it get away from you, chronic stress will lead to chronic disease and chronic disease will lead to early death

What are the best ways to lower cortisol?


1) Don't follow extreme diets

Cutting out all carbohydrates or fasting for 36 hours is going to wreak havoc on your stress hormones.

Although you may experience short term weight loss, it's going to hurt you in the long-term.

A balanced macronutrient ratio is best to aim for.

2) Get out in nature

Idc if you live in Alaska or Guatemala, connecting with nature daily will do more for your health than any biohack ever will

Reconnect to your ancestral roots and make it a habit.

Grounding/earthing, forest bathing, hikes, ocean swims, etc

3) SLEEP

You CANNOT neglect your sleep. I don't care how tough or alpha you think you are. It will eventually catch up with you.

@holisticnicola just released a great guide on sleep. Go check that out now as I read it and agree with everything inside.

MAKE THIS A PRIORITY

4) Improve your testosterone

Anything that improves your testosterone levels will decrease cortisol.

Here's a start:
-lower body fat
-eliminate PUFAs
-resistance training
-no alcohol
-sleep 8+ hours
-nutrient dense diet
-do cool shit

Okay look - I didn’t grow up with comic books. But I read stacks of science fiction digests and I kit-bashed model cars into fantasy rods, and just tried to maintain a low profile until I could get out of the house. So you could say I’m a distant cousin of the comic book fan. /1

And sometimes one’s childhood passion follows them into adulthood, sometimes not, sometimes as an adult one finds a passion they never had as a child and embraces it. For me, that must include getting involved with a puppet show at the age of thirty. /2

So who’s to say whose passion’s legitimate and whose is bogus? Nobody. Someone might indict your passion but they have no ground to stand on and should be dismissed out of hand. /3

Maybe they’re envious that you have a passion, maybe they think that their passion is cooler than yours, or maybe they’re just insecure, who knows. Doesn’t matter. /4

What matters is that if something gives you joy, and in the process doesn’t hurt others, then by all means follow it. It’s how we explore our secret hopes, our shadow sides, our inner character. /5

SRI CHAMPAKADHAMA SWAMY, BANNERGHATTA HILL, BENGALURU (KAR)
#bharatmandir

The shrine is dedicated to Sri Vishnu along with Devi Lakshmi and Bhoodevi.
It is built in an area full of Champaka trees.
As champaka flowers are offered to Sri Vishnu here, it is called Champakadhama.


It is believed that King Janmejaya had sarpa-dosha. To get rid of it, he took bath in the nearby pond. He emerged with a golden body and sarpa-dosha was also removed. The pond is called Swarnamukhi and believed to have curative powers.
Sri Vishnu murti was consecrated by him.


It is also believed that this forest area was the Dandakaranya where Sri Ram stayed in exile.
Some believe that the original shrine was built by Pandavas.
The pushkarni/pond is emptied once a year so that the rock at the bottom (which has image of Anjaneya) may be worshipped.

Rig Ved 1.36.7

To do a Namaskaar or bow before someone means that you are humble or without pride and ego. This means that we politely bow before you since you are better than me. Pranipaat(प्राणीपात) also means the same that we respect you without any vanity.

1/9


Surrendering False pride is Namaskaar. Even in devotion or bhakti we say the same thing. We want to convey to Ishwar that we have nothing to offer but we leave all our pride and offer you ourselves without any pride in our body. You destroy all our evil karma.

2/9

We bow before you so that you assimilate us and make us that capable. Destruction of our evils and surrender is Namaskaar. Therefore we pray same thing before and after any big rituals.

घ ईम् - Yours.

इत्था - This way.

उप - Upaasana.

Shri Hanuman had boon to be immortal. And be present where ever there is Ram stuti.
I came across this beautiful story that I would like to share

#Hanuman ji is believed to live in the foothills of Himalayas. But once he spent a lot of time in Sri Lanka

Where Ravan's brother ruled for many years..
On his way back he came across tribal people from community called #Mathanga
He gave Darshan to them. The chief of the tribe asked him to keep coming back to guide their generations
Hanuman ji said that whoever recites this mantra
2/9


I will give them Darshan. But there are two conditions
1st he/she must know his relationship with me
2nd there must not be anyone around him in 950 mts radius. If present, that person must also know about my relationship with him /her.

He promised to come after every 41 yrs

The Mathangs also maintain a ‘logbook’ where they record all the words spoken and ‘leelas’ performed by Lord Hanuman.
They call him their Guru
Who teaches them how to live their lives.
A Sri Lankan organization called Setuu is studying this ‘logbook’ and also conduct
4/9

programmes for Hanuman devotees who can do ‘Sadhna‘ under the guidance of Setuu masters. Devotees who qualify all the criteria will be eligible for Hanuman’s ‘sakshaat darshan‘
The Setuu has certain conditions that need to be kept in mind which includes devoting one complete

IT WAS RISHI KANADA WHO GAVE THE ATOMIC THEORY & TALKED ABOUT THE GRAVITY OF EARTH, 2600 YEARS BEFORE AN APPLE FELL IN FRONT OF NEWTON'S EYES:

Scientists of the modern world credit an English scientist John Dalton (1766 CE -1844 CE) for the Atomic Theory.


And this is because, most of us are not even aware of an ancient Indian Sage named Kanada, who was the first to formulate the theory of atoms, almost 2600 yrs before Dalton and talk about earth's gravity.


Rishi Kanada was born around 600 BCE in Dwarka, Gujarat and he was the son of a philosopher named Ulka. He was fascinated with the minute detailing of the things right from his childhood. Once, when he was very young, he accompanied his father on a journey to Prayaga.


He saw plentiful grains scattered along the path leading to the shore of river Ganga. It's a tradition in Hindu families to scatter the grains for the ants and birds to feed on them. Suddenly, an ant caught his attention, who was feeding on a rice grain.


He was mesmerised by this very fact that how a small grain of rice becomes food for the ant but to satisfy the hunger of a person so many grains are needed together. This incidence made him realize the importance of a single grain of rice.
