How wealthy are you??

Dr.

 Hello, dear reader. Namasthe. 

Welcome to the another thought provoking, transformative blog of voice of chittan. 

Today, I want to have a heart-to-heart conversation with you—a reflection, if you will, about how we define wealth and what truly matters in this short journey called life.


Let’s begin with a question: How wealthy are you?

At first glance, the answers might center around what society recognizes—your job title, the money in your account, the properties you own, the skills you’ve mastered, or the awards you’ve won. These are the things people notice, right? But let me ask you another question: What happens if you lose them?

We’ve all been there, haven’t we? The relentless pursuit of things that society tells us are important. The best job, the biggest house, the loudest applause. We’re so focused on climbing this imaginary ladder that we forget to ask: What happens when we reach the top?

Will there be peace? Or will it just be another ladder to climb?

Here’s the truth, my friend: chasing external success without internal growth is no use.. 

Imagine a life where your possessions, titles, and achievements disappear overnight. Will people still acknowledge you? Will you still feel valued? Some of us might answer yes...congratulations..you are on your way..Go ahead😇...However, Most of us fear that the answer might be no. But here’s where I want to challenge you—true wealth is far beyond material possessions or external recognition.



Real wealth lies in transformation.

It’s in the contentment you feel waking up each day, in the mindfulness with which you live every moment. It’s about stepping out of your comfort zone, trying something new, and doing it without fear or judgment. It’s about living with ease—not laziness, but a flow that aligns with your purpose.

Because the true Wealth Lies Within..Take a deep breath. Close your eyes. Strip away the layers of roles, titles, and possessions. What remains? You. The real you.

And that is where your wealth resides—in the depth of your heart, in the stillness of your mind, and in the courage of your spirit.

Wealth is in waking up every morning with gratitude.

Wealth is in embracing your imperfections and loving yourself anyway.

Wealth is in cherishing relationships, forgiving easily, and letting go of grudges

Think about it: life has its phases.

The First Phase: A race to gain ranks, scores, and academic accolades.

The Second Phase: The hustle to settle—earning money, chasing promotions, and gaining social validation, often at the cost of health and peace.

The Fourth Phase: A time of mere existence, when physical vitality fades and we reflect on the paths we’ve walked.

But what about the phase we’re living now? This phase, whether you’re in your 20s, 40s, or beyond, is your chance to redefine wealth.

A Unique Definition

As I’ve said in my previous blog, every life is unique. Your definition of wealth might differ from mine. For some, it could mean inner peace; for others, it’s about relationships, creativity, or spiritual growth. Whatever it is, define it early. Recognize that time is finite, and true wealth lies in living with mindfulness and bliss.

Letting Go of Fear

Take this moment to reflect:

Are you living to impress others, or to truly experience life?

Are you making decisions out of fear or love?

Try something you’ve always hesitated to do. It could be as small as learning a new skill, forgiving someone, or spending a day disconnected from devices. The magic lies in these small steps.

So , hope you agree if I say this.... 

Wealth isn’t about how much we have but how much we’ve become. It’s about how deeply we live each second, how willingly we embrace change, and how fearlessly we step into the unknown.

We spend so much time worrying about the future or regretting the past that we forget the magic of the present moment. This second, right here, is all you have. Use it wisely. Laugh louder. Love deeper. Live fully.

Let me share a thought with you, dear friend—all our beginnings are different. Some of us start life with the warmth of a golden spoon, while others begin with the resilience born from humble origins. Yet, here’s the beauty of it: our journeys are uniquely our own, and so is our definition of peace and wealth.

Comparison: The Thief of Joy

It’s tempting, isn’t it? To look at someone else’s life and wonder why theirs seems smoother, shinier, or more fulfilling. But the truth is, you’re only seeing a part of their story—the highlight reel, not the struggles behind the scenes.

Never compare your peace with theirs. What brings contentment to one might mean nothing to another. Your wealth—whether it’s love, peace, health, or joy—may look different, and that’s exactly how it’s meant to be.

Your Definition of Wealth

Pause for a moment. Ask yourself:

What makes me truly happy?

What fills my heart with peace?

What makes me feel alive?

For some, wealth might be financial stability; for others, it’s health, relationships, or personal growth. Some find peace in solitude, while others thrive in community. There is no universal answer, and that’s the magic of life.

Celebrate Your Journey

Your background, your struggles, your triumphs—they’ve shaped you into the person you are today. Instead of longing for someone else’s path, celebrate your own. Every step, every challenge, every victory is uniquely yours.

Remember, life isn’t a race to see who has the most. It’s a journey to discover what matters most to you. Define your wealth, embrace your journey, and live unapologetically in alignment with your truth.

So, my friend, I urge you: Redefine your wealth today. 

stop waiting for the “right time.” The right time is now. Right here. This breath.

Live mindfully. Live intentionally. Live boldly.


With love,
❤❤ Voice of Chittan

That Random day in my life.....

Dr.
 That day began like any other, filled with gratitude to Narasimha and hope for the day ahead. I went to work, but by mid-day, something shifted. I fell sick—suddenly, unexpectedly—and as the hours passed, my condition worsened. It wasn’t just an ordinary illness; this time, it felt heavy, like a storm I couldn’t escape.  For a moment, I wondered if I would survive. And in that quiet space, where everything else faded, two thoughts consumed me: What about my son? Will my husband manage without me? And then a strange question arose—Is my purpose done? Am I leaving because I’ve already fulfilled what I came to do? ( may be if we feel that moments are our last seconds and if we feel that we don't see tomorrow,then the most precious things alone we might be remember and we would recollect ..it would have scroll down like a reel those precious moments, and so i felt about my son and husband)  After several tests, the diagnosis finally came through: viral and bacterial pneumoni...

నాన్న కు చివరి వీడ్కోలు లేఖ

Dr.
In the wake of my father's death, I found myself navigating a grief, but within that sorrow, I discovered profound truths about the essence of life itself. As I grappled with the enormity of my loss, I came to realize that death is not just an end, but a poignant reminder of the impermanence of our earthly existence. It unveiled the fragility of life, urging me to embrace each moment with a newfound appreciation for its fleeting beauty. In the silence of my grief, I unearthed the importance of cherishing the relationships that enrich our lives. My father's absence served as a stark reminder to express love and gratitude freely, for tomorrow is never promised, and regrets weigh heavier than words left unspoken. Moreover, his passing unveiled the resilience of the human spirit, teaching me that even in the darkest of times, there is strength to be found within. Through the depths of my sorrow, I discovered an inner resolve to honor his memory by living a life of purpose, resilien...

తండ్రి మరణం ,కూతురికి నేర్పిన పాఠాలు

Dr.
మాతృ గర్భం నుండి సముద్రం గర్భం వరకు, తల్లి  చల్లని ఒడి నుండి మృత్యు మాత యొక్క అగ్ని ఒడి వరకు జరిగే ప్రయాణంలో నీ ప్రశ్నలు నీవే, జవాబులు నీవే, పోరాటం నీవే.. బతుకు నీదే.. చావు నీదే. పుట్టుక, మరణం రెండు ఒంటరే. ఈ రెండి మద్య నువ్వు పంచిన స్పూర్తి.. అదే నీ జీవితం జీవితంలో అత్యంత ఘర్షణాత్మక సంఘటనలు మన వ్యక్తిత్వంలో బలమైన మార్పును కలిగిస్తాయి.  Losing my father was one of the hardest things I’ve ever faced. But you know what? It changed me. It taught me lessons I don’t think I would have learned otherwise. It’s like life whispered, "Here’s the truth—take it, hold it, and grow with it." One of the first things I learned was how important it is to stand on your own.I realized I had to become that for myself. Independence isn’t just about surviving—it’s about finding strength you didn’t know you had. And trust? Oh, that was a big one. I’ve learned to be careful with trust. Not everyone deserves it, and that’s okay. But here’s the thing—I haven’t closed myself off. I’ve just beco...

The Beauty of Slowing Down

Dr.
  Hey all,Namaste. thank you for tuning in voice of chittan blog.  Today, I want to talk about something we often overlook but desperately need:  "the art of doing nothing.” Life has a funny way of surprising us, doesn’t it? There are days when no matter how hard we plan, things just don’t go our way. Deadlines get missed, expectations aren’t met, and sometimes, it feels like the world is rushing by while we’re stuck in slow motion. It’s frustrating, right? But what if I told you that these unexpected pauses are not failures—they’re opportunities? Opportunities to breathe. To reflect. To just be. Think about it. From the moment we wake up, we’re chasing something—goals, recognition, validation, or even the next item on our to-do list. But do we ever pause and ask ourselves, “Why?” Why are we running? And more importantly, where are we running to? Here’s the thing: not every day has to be about hitting targets or checking boxes. Sometimes, the most meaningful moments come ...

If the Entire Team Fails, Then the Manager Also Fails: Understanding Shared Responsibility

Dr.
 " When a team fails, the manager/leader fails too. A leader never have blaming tone,but sets an inspiration". Hey all Namasthe,  In the world of organisation ,failure is often seen as a setback, a sign that something went wrong. When an entire team fails, it can feel like a disaster. However, the true measure of a manager is not in how they handle success, but in how they manage failure. While a bad manager might blame their team to remain in their boss’s good books, a good manager understands that leadership means taking responsibility, learning from mistakes, and turning failure into an opportunity for growth. Here’s how a manager can win, even when their team fails. 1. Accept Responsibility The first step in turning failure into victory is for the manager to accept responsibility. This doesn’t mean shouldering all the blame, but rather acknowledging their role in the team’s performance. A good manager understands that they are accountable for the team's results, and t...

Self-Persecuting/ Compassion. What is your Choice?

Dr.
Hey all Namasthe and welcome to another blog on Voice of Chittan.  I was reading the Journey of successful women. Then asked myself on “ What is the definition of Success?” “Does someone else validate it?” You all know and It is a bitter fact that Judgemental exists everywhere, how to sail the ocean of expectations!!!!  As women, we often find ourselves wearing multiple hats in our lives - caretakers, professionals, partners, friends - the list goes on. In the midst of fulfilling these roles, we sometimes forget the most important person: ourselves. It's time to stop the cycle of self-persecution and embrace self-compassion. Let us understand the power of self-acceptance and the freedom it brings.  Here, I share some of my opinions and insights in the hope of inspiring others to take their stand and reclaim their sense of self. One of the greatest burdens we carry is the weight of our own insecurities. We constantly strive for perfection, fearing judgment and rejection if...
