Think. Rethink. 52 Times.

Posted on 8 June 202514 June 2025 by Mayuri Sharrma
  1. What others think of you is none of your business.
  2. Walk. Take the stairs. Dance. Move that body as much as you can.
  3. Good habits are as easy to form as bad ones. Both take the same effort. The latter ones are more fun, which is why we adapt to them sooner.
  4. The only way to be and stay organized is to have a specific place for everything and remember to return things to their original location.
  5. Splurge on the best accessories (watches, jewelry, shoes, bags) your money can buy. They last longer than clothes do and enhance an outfit and your personality. Don’t cut back on nightwear and bed linen either. 
  6. No is a sentence.
  7. There are far greater vices than smoking, drinking, and swearing. Lying, manipulating, cheating, being mean, being sly, not giving credit where it is due – to name just a few.
  8. Waiting for Karma to do its job is so passé! Settle scores yourself!
  9. Practice physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial hygiene.
  10. Save. Save. Save. Your time, your energy, your sanity.
  11. You don’t have to be good to people who are not good to you. Don’t match energy either; shut the power off.
  12. Hype yourself, to yourself, ALL.THE.TIME.
  13. Be wise enough to know your flaws. Then work on them or make them work for you.
  14. LET. PEOPLE. EARN.YOU.
  15. Speaking and living your truth will cause those who are false to leave you. Victory!
  16. Money should not only be saved but also enjoyed, wisely, of course. Use it to make life comfortable.
  17. How you lived will not die with you. Think of what you want to be remembered as.
  18. It’s never too late. You are not too old. It’s not that difficult. 
  19. Hand wash your innerwear in shampoo.
  20. Exercise, in any form you enjoy, is a non-negotiable.
  21. Taking care of and maintaining your teeth and hair will help you look better and younger.
  22. You don’t need expensive skincare; you only need to be consistent with yours.
  23. Social Media is a boon – there is free knowledge everywhere. Provided you are a seeker.
  24. Learning breathwork and practicing it regularly can transform your life, mental health, and emotions.
  25. If you don’t have time to do the things you want and love, you are not living your life right.
  26. Skipping meals can cost you your health.
  27. Dressing well, even when you’re at home, is a way to respect yourself.
  28. You need to be not only financially independent but also financially sensible – learn to make your money work for you.
  29. Your gut instinct is there to protect you. Listen to it.
  30. Most values labeled as selfish (such as prioritizing yourself, seeking happiness, and doing what you believe is right) are generally sensible. Learn the difference between selfish and sensible.
  31. It is cheaper to stay healthy.
  32. Wear perfume every day (pro-tip: wearing perfume appeases Venus, the planet of good health, luxuries, relationships, beauty, and pleasure)
  33. Donate to causes you believe in (and to trustworthy people and organizations)
  34. Tip generously.
  35. Start your day by saying thank you to God, the Universe, and everyone who makes your life easier – yes, if your ego won’t allow you to say it aloud, you can even say it in your head.
  36. Good sleep is often underrated, and its benefits won’t be realized until you start getting quality sleep.
  37. Sometimes you are terribly upset and mutinous when you are dehydrated, hungry, and tired.
  38. If you are a giver, you will likely be taken advantage of.
  39. Suppressing your anger and emotions leads to autoimmune diseases, which leads to other diseases.
  40. Don’t try to find the good in every terrible person or situation you encounter.
  41. Maintaining good posture not only helps you avoid aches and pains but also makes you appear more youthful.
  42. Words are cheap, actions are what cost you your reputation – or elevate it.
  43. That thing you don’t have the courage for? That is precisely what you need to do.
  44. Close doors to people and relationships that take more than they give.
  45. If you learnt something from it, it wasn’t a mistake,
  46. You must work through your childhood traumas and painful past experiences. You can’t travel far carrying the load of it all.
  47. Forgive your parents.
  48. Read a lot.
  49. Apologizing when you are wrong doesn’t make you smaller – it makes you bigger.
  50. Don’t do anything that would need an apology
  51. Never lend money. Don’t borrow it either.
  52. Only a select few people should have front-row seats to your life. Let the rest queue up to get in.

    Overthinking is practically a second job for me, and yes, it’s unpaid and exhausting! That line about replaying conversations 52 times hit home; I do it with a mix of anxiety and imagination. I’ve even rewritten texts after sending them like my brain is trying to retro-edit reality. I love how you captured the quiet chaos inside our heads so humorously. It’s nice knowing I’m not alone in this spiral. The tone was spot-on—light yet deeply reflective. Thank you for writing what most of us think but rarely say out loud.

    OMG.All of these make immense sense and add so much insights to becoming a better version of yourself. Some of them touched an emotional cord with me. I feel you should come out with a book where this can all be elaborated further.

    I know people who are in the front row with me. Perfume’s been long on my mind for long. And yes, borrowing or lending money is certainly a big NO. Good tips.

    I genuinely feel like printing this and posting on my wall so it can be a daily reminder for me. Don’t try to find the good in every terrible person or situation you encounter is something I needed to hear and this hard truths is something everyone should remember. Thank you for such a thoughtful post.

    This list is a keepsake. To be read again and again. We all know them, but never think much about them. This list of 52 is exhaustive and includes everything one needs to lead a great life. Good one, Mayuri.

    Long list to ensure each one leads a peaceful and beautiful life. Truly only a few can have permission to take the front row in our life.

    Oh my my. I feel like these should be printed and put up on a wall as daily reminders for all humankind. Loved every point and was nodding away 100% of the time through the entire piece. Especially loved the point about learning the difference between being selfish and sensible.

    Love how you have got all these things together! I am currently at a phase where, waiting for Karma is not done any more…, settle scores! this works.
