I completed my Megaliving 30 day program yesterday! Life has really transformed. I have grown by leaps and bounds. This is the happiest I have been in the last 3 years!
. I can feel myself growing above my moods and circumstances.
It was a tough journey. I stuck to it with discipline. And I have got the fruits.
I would like to write a lot about my journey in the coming posts, but here is a quick list of a few things that I have achieved :-
- I eat 3 times every day. Feel very energized and upbeat!
- I exercise 5 days a week, have built a decent endurance and can feel my abs hardening
- I meditate regularly and my focus levels have gone up several times.
- Its pretty easy for me to persevere these days as I don’t get distracted easily.
- I have built amazing discipline. And I enjoy it
- My pimples have disappeared and my dandruff has reduced
- I get very very few negative thoughts every day and I am quick to challenge and dispel them.
- My will power has increased significantly
- My memory has improved.
- I have started remembering routes to various places and names of people.
- I am literally upset-free. (this credit I’ll give to Landmark Education though)
- I keep my room neat and tidy.
- I feel so good that I never feel like being in disheveled clothes. I am almost always clean-shaved. And I do so not for the people looking at me, I do so because I feel like it.
- I have started waking up early morning. Thanks to Soniya for this.
- I have become very good at practicing commitment over attachment.
- I have really started living a life of no pretense! It used to be very confronting, but now I must say, I have overcome the tough phase and am enjoying the fruits.
- I managed to read 6 books in January. Overshooting my target by 1 book.
- I eat fruits regularly and am noticing their effect in my skin and body.
- I have built this habit of “kaizen”. Pushing myself without taking stress
.
- I have grown by leaps and bounds.
- The list goes on… Thanks Mr. Sharma
There are a few things that I could not achieve, the prominent one being my 1000$ target. But the kind of guy I am now, I just wanna learn from it and move on. My targets for April and July stay as stated earlier. I also did not complete my handwriting analysis website. Primarily because I was focusing on other strategies to meet my targets. And something tells me, I’ll meet them this time.
Not to mention, I will continue to MegaLive each day from now on. In fact today was better than any of the previous 30 days. Today was way above them all.

Wow, writing things down in a blog really helps
Soon after I wrote the habits I am taking on, I realized that I gotta do a reality check of my current standing. Looks like, I was again in wonderland… I had thought that I had been doing pretty well with a good amount of discipline. But thanks, I have come back to reality again.
Now, 1 complain about Robin Sharma (whose work I had been resisting a bit). He says that you just gotta give 15 mins of your time daily to the program. But with his all new exercises increasing day by day, I guess I need 2-3 hours to do them properly everyday as of today (day
and would require about 5 hours a day after another 20 days. I am finding this Megaliving thing highly confronting. And I guess the sheer reason that I am still following it to the best of my capabilities is that I feel its testing the best of me. Besides I know that if I can do this thing “the way it is meant to be done”, I will never ever complain about my being indisciplined or lazy. And yes I am seeing some results coming too.
1 reason why I resist Robin’s work is because I don’t want to use some techniques to transform my life. Self realization is a beautiful blissful process. But after really confronting it and questioning myself, I realized that I am fine with using techniques or whatever it takes to get what I want in life. Its the fear of people saying “abe oye! you used all these techniques to succeed” that was stopping me. But as I said, I have taken on becoming independent of peoples’ opinions while still being attentive to them.
So here is my daily routine:-
(Mind you, there are a lot of things that I have inserted because I liked doing them on my own, besides Megaliving’s influence)
