Today is my birthday (14th January), and I thought about this question:
“Knowing what I know about my life, what would I advise Bishal Sarkar’s 2015 version (1 year younger Bishal Sarkar) if I could write to him?”
Here’s the letter I wrote now.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey Bishal
Happy Birthday.
You’re achieving amazing things in life.
You’re creating amazing difference in peoples’ lives. And you’re doing everything taking complete responsibility.
I have a couple of suggestions for you.
1. Face your fears daily
2. Be more health-conscious. No point making a lot of money while being out of health-control
3. Write more letters to your life partner, she loves reading your letters
4. Spend more time with your brother
5. Wake up early
6. Forgive quickly
7. Feed more people
8. Give blankets to poor people in winter
9. Do meditation daily
10. Blog more often
11. Charge more for your services (because you always provide MASSIVE TRANSFORMATION)
12. Do more positive self-talk throughout the day
13. Join a MASTERMIND group
14. Thank people more often
15. Talk more about your vision. Speak it out
16. Don’t mind about small little comments/events. They really don’t matter in the long run
17. Cry when you want to
18. The world rewards boldness. Be bolder
19. Invest more money to grow yourself faster
20. Don’t expect gratitude from everyone.
21. Don’t expect apology from everyone. If you expect apology from others when they do wrong, and they don’t apologize---- it will DISTURB you and take away your peace
22. Say “I Love You” more often to your family members
23. Hold your life partner’s hands and tell her: “I’m proud of you”
Bishal, you’re doing amazing things in life. A couple of years ago you were broke, you were hopeless, and you used to borrow money to live your months.
Now in 2015 you do what you love, you spend great time with your family and you’re financially free, you’ve been featured in TIMES OF INDIA. I respect you for it. Value the close people who care for you. They believe in you.
Bishal, know that you can dream bigger. You can act bigger. You can help so many poor people by providing them with the EXAMPLE in front of them.
A bigger life is waiting for you…to LIVE IT.
Love openly. Forgive quickly. And smile more often.
Bishal, you’re a ROCKSTAR. Happy birthday, and have an AWESOME 2015.
- Bishal Sarkar in 2016

What about you?
If you could write YOUR 1-year younger self a letter with some advice, what would you add in that letter?
By the way, if you want to wish me happy birthday, there's a rule before wishing me. First forgive someone you've not yet forgiven, and ONLY THEN wish me.
You deserve a better life, and I am here to help you.
Happy birthday to me, happy new day to you.
