7 Phrases to Avoid

                                7 phrases you should avoid using saying



From daily expressions and conversation I often over-hear people using some certain phrases which does not sound quite convincing (according to me). I come across it quite often, so I decided to pick some of it, make a list and share them. Though not saying you should not use it at all, but I suggest you avoid it as much as possible.


1. I will do it later- 'Procrastination' is the word here,
 I never clearly understood the meaning until I came across many around me procrastinating, they put aside their task saying they will do it later. I 'was' one of them (Not anymore though)
Won't it be much better if you don't delay what you are suppose to be doing now. From my own personal experience I can strongly  say you never end up doing that task later. Really.

2.  I know everything- ( excused for the genius) but as far as I know, not every person entirely knows everything. And, in case you do.. mind telling me what my next line is going to be? no? good.
Know what? the world itself is a learning place, we get to learn newer stuffs everyday. And, trust me you will still be learning some greater new things in your old age too (unless you turns out to be the wisest human alive)

3. Give me 5 minutes - We women use it a lot (pardon me) I am one myself,  but if you are unsure of been done by 5 minutes, say you are going to 'take your time' instead. At least you are assuring those waiting that you will take longer than 5 min #Mean what you say, people will start believing you.

4. Why me?  - When things normally don't go our ways, we question God with Why only me? but, have you given a thought before uttering that word? because you are not the only one having that bad day or going through  hard times, there are others facing the worse. Chill.. why not use the phrase, who else?
Bet that sounds better.

5. This will be my last- Hmm... this sentence should in fact be your last. We often do some stuffs we love doing but when it is not appreciated by many we try to assure them saying...  This will be my Last, I promise...  Uh huh Really!?? 
FYI the world is not ending yet, why the last?

6. I hate you- Really? kidding?
Well, you can't just hate another person unless they are born to be hated and am sure no one is. We were taught to keep our friends close and our enemies closer so.. why not love them too.
Surely you just uttered it out of frustration.. Right!?
Better put on a practice to say I love you...  not to any random person though .

7. I am never wrong-

Well, heard the saying 'To err is human, to forgive divine?'
 Yes... we are humans, if we don't know everything then there is possibilities of us making mistakes too. You can be wrong somethings if not always.. So, it's absolutely okay to learn from that. Better be wrong and learn, than to be never right!!



                            I bet we should put a practice to exclude/avoid all this phrase in our conversation, might be a little difficult to do so, but am sure we will get over it with time... After all 'Everything is Possible' (p.s - this one is okay to be used)

Book Review: Birth of the Fae: Locked Out of Heaven by Danielle Orsino

About the Book What would you do if all you knew had abandoned you? Abandoned by their creator, two factions of angels remain on earth after the Great War with Lucifer. These Virtues and Power Angels struggle to comprehend their Creator’s plan while their wings, a symbol of their angelic lineage, slowly and painfully decay. Unaware of one another, the angels learn to survive and reinvent themselves. With no hope of returning to the Shining Kingdom, both groups denounce their angelic lineage and develop into their own factions. They call themselves the “Fae.” This is their story. The Fae world is ruled by two distinct courts: the Court of Light, led by Queen Aurora, a former Virtue Angel, and the Court of Dark, ruled by King Jarvok, a former Power Brigade Angel. The two monarchs have opposing views on how to govern their kin and, more importantly, the way humanity plays into their survival. The one belief they agree on is human worship equals power. Exactly how the two go about capturin...

Book Review: I’ve Never Been (Un)Happier by Shaheen Bhatt

About the book Lights, Camera . . . Inaction Unwittingly known as Alia Bhatt’s older sister, screenwriter and fame-child Shaheen Bhatt has been a powerhouse of quiet restraint—until now. In a sweeping act of courage, she now invites you into her head. Shaheen was diagnosed with depression at eighteen, after five years of already living with it. In this emotionally arresting memoir, she reveals the daily experiences and debilitating big picture of one of the most critically misinterpreted mental illnesses in the twenty-first century. Equal parts conundrum and enlightenment, Shaheen takes us through the personal pendulum of understanding and living with depression in her privileged circumstances. With honesty and a profound self-awareness, Shaheen lays claim to her sadness, finding it a home in the universal fabric of the human condition. In this multi-dimensional, philosophical tell-all, Shaheen acknowledges, accepts and overcomes the peculiarities of this way of being alive...

Reading in Quarantine- #Birthdaybloghop

Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people – people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book.” – E.B. White With the Coronavirus crisis and most of the nation quarantined inside the comfort of their homes, I can presume all the bookworms silently rejoicing, not that the world is coming to a standstill (that would be rude), but because of the reason that we will have all the possible time in the world to be reading and ticking off our TBR lists (Not precisely though). At least we thought we will have all the possible time in the world to read and read till our eyes are sore, but guess that remind yet another excuse of, ‘maybe, I will start reading tomorrow.' And, one would probably be asking, ‘why read? when we have other things to keep ourselves engaged. There are so many other things to do and catch up with- for instance, binge-watching book adapted series, attending zoom calls, video calling old friends to ch...
