A Little Bit of Alexa in my life #MyfriendAlexa 2018

My name is Monika and now-a-days there is a song running in my mind all the time , really it vibrates in my head most of  the time whether I am doing some cooking or some other work or may be just lied on bed wanting to sleep. The song is   — A Little bit of Monika in my life ……..I am sure you have listened to it . I don’t remember the full song but just this tagline is enough to shake my head as soon as I am reminded of it .  Now it’s time to corelate the rhythm and make the tagline for the current month of September — A little bit of Alexa in my Life …….Let your heads dance to this !!

Well , as the month of September arrives , it brings along the much awaited blogging campaign #MyFriendAlexa by the team Blogchatter. I am participating in this blogging festival for the second consecutive year and today I am super excited to give it a start . Ready Steady Go……………During the coming few weeks ,there will be lots of reading , writing and sharing . Afterall these are the  things  which define blogging . Isn’t it ? No- No- not just sharing but caring too.

How was my #MyfriendAlexa 2017 journey ? What did I gain ? What did I loose ? Read here 

Coming to #MyfriendAlexa -What’s Alexa Rank  ? Well it is a ranking system by Amazon telling about the amount of traffic on a website or blog . And if it is #MyfriendAlexa , it sure proves out to be a true friend and helps increase your traffic , your readers and you get to find many online friends during  the journey.

What is my theme for #MyfriendAlexa2018 ?

Today all of us seem to have a very complex life . Everybody is busy , there is no time , we are rushing like mad unknowing of where we are heading , almost eighty percent of the time we are working somewhat like automated machines and it often happens that our minds are  running through a fog . We are working but our mind is wandering at home . We are eating food but we don’t enjoy the taste of what we are eating . We are driving but we are not fully alert rather the car or scooter just drives itself . I think we seem to forget living in the present , we seem to bypass   our present little  moments of happiness in the future worries and in the  hope of achieving something Big in life first and then become  happy . We have ourselves made our lives complex . We need to do something . Let’s try doing our bit in this September month .

For the  month long blogging festival  , I have decided a theme in which I would be sharing few thoughts ,  quotes or ideas which can help keeping your life simple and calm . My theme is:   #LetUsKISS . Yes Yes ! You read it right —KISS . But May be you haven’t got the right meaning of KISS here . By the word  KISS , I don’t mean the love , romance ,  or the touch which we give or receive from our loved ones , rather I am talking of the KISS Principle . It’s an acronym for KEEP IT SIMPLE But  SIGNIFICANT .

#LetUsKISS –Let us keep it Simple But Significant

Under #LetUsKISS , I would be sharing few posts with you which can help  in simplifying your life and being calm . After all , we all want to be calm and happy  , and the essence of happiness is Simplicity .

So stay hooked on to my blog  to read my posts under #LetusKISS . Let us keep our lives Simple ,Significant and Calm .

I am taking my Alexa to the next level with #MyfriendAlexa

A letter to my Kitchen

 Being a woman i also spend lot of time in my kitchen whether full heartedly , half heartedly or not at all heartedly . But in any case i have to go in my kitchen off and on . Today I feel like writing a letter to my kitchen. Dear Kitchen    Hope you are living a fulfilling life with all your jars filled to the brim with wheat , rice , pulses , sugar , tea ,coffee and cookies . I also hope that your sinks are now empty and clean unlike the last month when maid was on leave . Those days ,your sinks used to be piled up with utensils and it stinked so badly .  Dear kitchen , it's been around seventeen years that i am taking care of you . Now you are grown up as a teenager and so you should learn to be responsible and maintain your hygiene .  It feels good when my family agrees on khichdi and your cooker does the job   in  just one whistle . But you just don't cooperate when they demand Chole Bhature and you also start giving me tantrums . Remember ho...

Why do I write ?

 I have been writing a blog for the last five years and many times people question me why do i write . Well ! I don't have an exact answer . But whenever someone has asked me this question ' Why do you write ?' i have answered in the form of some question only like 'Why do you go shopping ?' or 'Why do you love to  go  on vacation?'  Actually the basic answer is that it feels good . It makes me happy , contented and also a little proud of myself . The feeling when i boasted about being an author is incomparable . May be you don't read me but I keep writing for myself - to reflect on my life experiences and learn from them. Earlier i used to feel depressed when people didn't read me but now it's just between me and my blog . Writing  helps me connect to my creative side and helps increase my vocabulary also. Writing provides an escape when reality becomes too complex. I like to write because it allows me to focus on a subject  and helps me relieve...

Test Yourself with 10 Random questions

It's good to analyze yourself to  know about your positive points as well your limitations So why not take a random  test today ?   Here are some questions which you should try to answer to yourself only and i request you to do it mindfully. 1. How are you feeling today ? Energetic , Stagnant or bored ? 2. Right now , are you thinking about today , yesterday or tomorrow ?  Remember today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday . Yesterday is gone . That was past . Learn from your past but don't let the past disturb you in the present or hinder your growth in the future . 3. In the past few days did you talk something good about yourself ? Daily you talk a lot about others but do you talk about yourself too ? Sometimes we  have a tendency not to boast or talk good about ourselves even when we have accomplished something . The way you talk about yourself makes an impact. Always speak  empowering words about yourself, "Whenever you think of beautiful ...
