Let us talk about happiness surveys done in the world in 2023.

The recorded history of chess goes back at least to the seventh century in India.

Today, chess is one of the world’s most popular games, played by millions worldwide.

Chess is an abstract strategy game. Chessboard has 64 squares arranged in an eight-by-eight grid. At the start, each player controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two rooks, two bishops, two knights, and eight pawns. White moves first, followed by Black. Checkmating the opponent’s king involves putting the king under immediate attack (in “check”); there is no way for it to escape. There are also several ways a game can end in a draw.

Playing chess can improve cognitive skills like memory, planning, and problem-solving. It may also help reduce symptoms of certain brain conditions.

The game of chess is loved all over the world for the following reasons:

1. It can raise your IQ;
2. It helps prevent Alzheimer’s;
3. It exercises both sides of the brain;
4. It increases your creativity;
5. It improves your memory;
6. It increases problem-solving skills;
7. It improves reading skills.

Skills : Kids Learn at Chess Camp:-

Playing chess every day improves mental and emotional health and well-being. This practice also enhances critical skills such as problem-solving and patience. It also improves self-confidence, brain health, and memory. It helps to foster mathematical skills.

I follow Warren Buffett, one of the greatest investors, for his views on investment.

According to Warren Buffett, improving your talent is an investment no one can take away from you. It is like an investment worth making.

Why is investing in self so powerful?

Investing in self sends a powerful message to self and the world that you are born to live, earn, and succeed.

Self-investment means:

• You believe in yourself;
• You plan for your own personal and professional development;
•  You are engaged in a continuous, mindful, lifelong learning strategy;
• You pursue ideas, programs, and training for your personal and professional growth;
• You make yourself travel on a path of self-discovery and self-worth;
• You are willing to make investments in enhancing your abilities;
• You are giving yourself honest feedback and working with others who will provide genuine and direct feedback.

Invest as much as you can in self-starting right now, and you will see returns beyond anything you could imagine. Investing in yourself means investing in your future.

Here are some reasons you are afraid to invest in yourself :

1. You lack self-belief;
2. You are good at making excuses;
3. You want to be in your comfort zone;
4. You love dreaming and planning but not implementing;
5. You avoid taking responsibility for your life;
6. You are too dependent on others and situations;
7. You overthink while doing necessary things;
8. You are afraid of challenges;
9. You have a fear of failure;
10. You want everything free;
11. You aim for small;
12. You spend on your wants rather than on your needs.

“The Only Person Who Can Change Your Life Is You, So Invest In Self.“

Be your own Inspiration and Motivation !

Your Parents and Teachers may show you the right path, but it is you who need to take responsibility.

It is you who need to motivate self (intrinsic motivation) to achieve your own goals.

Take initiative and be accountable for your own life, it will lead you to success…✍️

शिवरायांचे आठवावे रूप ।
शिवरायांचा आठवावा प्रताप ।
शिवरायांचा आठवावा साक्षेप ।
भूमंडळी ।।१।।

शिवरायांचे कैसें बोलणें ।
शिवरायांचे कैसें चालणें ।
शिवरायांची सलगी देणे ।
कैसी असे ।।२।।

सकल सुखांचा केला त्याग ।
म्हणोनि साधिजें तो योग ।
राज्यसाधनाची लगबग ।
कैसीं केली ।।३।।

याहुनी करावें विशेष
तरीच म्हणवावें पुरुष ।
या उपरीं आता विशेष ।
काय लिहावे ।।४।।

शिवरायांसी आठवावें ।
जीवित तृणवत् मानावें ।
इहलोकी परलोकीं उरावे ।
कीर्तीरूपें ।।५।।

निश्चयाचा महामेरू ।
बहुत जनांसी आधारू ।
अखंड स्थितीचा निर्धारु ।
श्रीमंत योगी ।।६।।
