Sibling wars - the roller coaster life with siblings

 If you have siblings, congratulations! - you’ve basically been living in a reality tv show ( like big boss) your entire life. One minute you’re laughing over an inside joke that no one understands, the next you’re fighting over who’s the favourite child. Growing up with siblings is unpredictable, chaotic , dramatic and occasionally violent.

The battle of personal space ( you never win )

Let’s be real- privacy doesn’t exist with siblings. Your room? Not really yours.Your personal diary? The best selling novel in their eyes. Your stationary? Community property. Everytime you scream “ Get out of my room!!” They somehow find a reason to invade your space. But sometimes when you’re having a really bad day, their uninvited presence in your room is the best thing that happened that day.

From small fights to unbreakable bond 

Sibling fights can vary from “ you are chewing too loud!” Or “ you stole my snacks!”. No matter how dramatic the fight was , you’ll probably be laughing the next moment or day( like it never happened) . The funny thing is no matter how much you annoy each other , when someone else is messing with your sibling, their protective side kicks in. Cause only you are allowed to make your siblings life miserable.

The Art of annoying each other

There is no greater sibling talent than the ability to push them to their limits to drive them insane. Whether  it’s about standing in front of the tv ( not letting them watch) or eating all their snacks. As younger siblings, we exist to annoy them. 

My day isn’t over until I annoy my brother.

The unspoken sibling codes

“ Everything that is yours, is mine. But everything that is mine, is not yours”

“ If you wake me up for no reason, prepare for a war”

“ If I go down , you come with me” 

“ When I say ‘don’t tell mom’, it’s legally binding “

“ If you annoy me, I will annoy you ten times harder”

“If you borrow something, You put it back before they notice. ( even if it’s months later )

“When I call dibs, you have to follow it”

Why life with silblings is actually the best!

Sure, siblings can be annoying and downright impossible to deal with . But they are the people who know you the best. They have seen your weirdest faces of life, ugliest looks and the embarrassing  moments. And life without them would be way too quiet and less fun.

How tiny shifts can lead to massive impacts

You know how that one decision-like hitting the snooze button when your alarm goes off or actually choosing to get out of bed, can change the whole vibe of the day?Well… life is not any different. What if I told you that the biggest changes in your life does not come from drastic changes or decisions, it comes from small shifts you barely notice.Here’s how 1. The one degree change theory It’s those small, almost insignificant changes in our life ( good or bad) that over time leads to significant and an impactful difference.  If a ship starts from Los Angeles to New York but its course is shifted by even one degree you would reach a completely different city- miles away from your actual destination.The same rule applies in real life.The small changes that may seem insignificant but over time it can change your whole trajectory. 1 degree of good change - success  Eg - Drinking more water ➡️  more energy ➡️ better workouts ➡️ healthier body 1 degree of bad change- slow decli...

  Feeling like your lost in a sea of self doubt? You’re not alone! We all have those moments where we doubt ourselves and our abilities. But guess what, people are not born with confidence,it is a skill they develop and so can you!  *Think of confidence as a superpower - it helps you.

Setting goals as a teen

  Let’s be honest - goal setting sounds easy theoretically but in reality , is it? One moment I feel very productive ,motivated and ready to wake up early.The next moment I am scrolling through YouTube and feeling so unproductive. As a teen managing school, exams, extracurricular ,friends and goals may seem impossible.But setting goals is not being overwhelmed or having it all figured out-it’s about growing from your mistakes and living the life as you want to.So if you have a tough time setting goals ,this is how I try to set goals(and achieve them)and navigate through the chaos and challenges life brings. 1. Start now, even if it’s messy Many people put off setting goals just because they are waiting for “ the perfect time ”-I’ll start tomorrow….next week….next month. Ring a bell? Honestly, there is no perfect time to start. If you wait till you are completely ready, you probably will never begin. You don’t have to have it all figured out to just take the first step.Even messy st...
