Its official , #Thankul Thursdays is now officially a habit.If you have read about 21 days to a habit, then you know I have written 22 thankfulness posts.Mayuri our resident idea generator and Tina are both veterans at A toZ April challenge.They very smartly made a short quick list of prompts, which will be a breeze to write even with the madness of an E post coming up tomorrow.
Prompt this week
Tea or Coffee?Why are you thankful for your favourite beverage?
Tea or coffee :Thankful Thursdays week 23
Yes, I love my tea , its like my best friend for life.When I travel I miss having tea my way.Luckily green tea sachet, make having my cup of this beverage easy, anywhere.Not so with my favourite gingery milky chai!
On the way from Bhuvaneshwar airport towards Puri, I had one of the most delicious chai while travelling.The stall owner charged a humble fifteen rupees and also had the sweet and slightly nankeen (salty) local cookie as an accompaniment.Living outside Kolkata I miss the Maharani tea stall trademark “special cha”.
Enough of nostalgia.My list of reasons for thankfulness for my tea are:
Green tea tastes great.
Its super healthy being packed full of flavonoids and catechins.Making its antioxidant properties well known.
I drink my morning cup guilt free.
I am avoiding the milk and sugar , tea ?thus calories are easier to control.I indulge when I am having a break.
Have you read about my affair with tea?Comment below to let me know .

Frankly speaking there’s no monitors ,no parameters for quality check .Except recommendation from reliable sources .
The pros of this bundle:

Did I tell you that the Knowtbook is actually a constantly updated blogging guide.
It’s like you get the best of blogging and biz resources checked for usefulness and reliability .Then delivered to you regularly with no headache.It’s for life.
Amy is an angelwho had gifted the Knowtbook to me .So when she recommended the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit it was a nobrainer.There have been so many times in my own blogging journey when I’ve felt like giving up.
What if I was not helping anyone?What if all this was all a mistake ?How to increase my email list?
How to increase traffic?How to make my blog my way to be helpful for others and helpful for me !
How to earn money from my blog in totally non-icky ways?Overall, blogging has been one of those incredible “pinch me” parts of my life.I can hardly believe I get to do something I love so much, earn money from home, and be part of such a special community.But it isn’t always easy, and the fast-changing nature of the blogosphere means I can’t ever stop learning how to be a better blogger.
That’s where the bonuses in this toolkit will help you get that extra edge .
I’ve found my blog really thrives when I’m growing in my skills, connecting with others who get the work I’m doing.
Pushing myself to try new things.
Improve my Alexa .
I make a point of prioritizing my growth as a blogger.Because learning is best way to tackle the impossible
Learning from other experienced bloggers who’ve mastered a particular aspect of blogging helps cut the time needed for experimentation!
Problem is, it can get pretty pricey to buy all the new books or courses that cover the topics I’m looking for.
Which is why I am feeling very excited about the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit.
It’s a digital package crammed full of brilliant tools to help you grow your blog, work smarter & make more money.(But for way less than you’d normally spend!)
The team at Ultimate Bundles has put together the best resources on ALL the topics that matter to bloggers, like mastering social media, monetization, creating and selling products, time management and productivity, nurturing an email list, and so much more.
I have seen that every year I blog there’s a new wonderful thing God sends my way, for taking my dream to the next level.
First year Amy helped.Second year Pat Flynn helped .This year this toolkit has that same “miracle ” waiting to happen vibe.Plus putting all my Instamojo products as the added bonus for you makes this truly personal.
In India there’s really nothing like this yet.If you want to know how I did all this in India with minimal investment ,don’t forget to subscribe to my list and send me an email with your receipt (must have my special link)
You will get my exclusive framework for each of the courses to help you do this quickly.
Here’s what you get:
24 eBooks
33 eCourses & audio files
5 printable packs
In total, the toolkit includes over $3,500 of blogging tips, strategies, tutorials and amazingly practical information and ideas. Plus you get free bonus offers worth $1,447, with 17 tools and services to help you run your blog.
This year’s Genius Blogger’s Toolkit comes with over $1,447 worth of bonus offers including:

But the truly amazing part? They’re selling it for a crazy 98% off of regular price!
I know, it sounds too good to be true, but I promise it’s not. Ultimate Bundles has been around a long time and creating these packages is really their thing (they’ve sold over 180,000 of them on all sorts of topics), so you can trust this is the real deal.
Even better, they’re all about making sure you LOVE this toolkit. There’s a full 30-day happiness guarantee, so there’s really no risk in trying it out.

When I review books I am happy. Today on my blog I review Midnight Musings by Romila. I love reading and will gladly read all day. But reviewing is a different game. It is an opinion about someoné’s creative efforts and I love creativity. How do you review someone’s soul work?
But another thing which I adore is an adventure.,when people try something new. It takes a brave soul to write and a lion heart to write a poetry book. Romila wrote a short book of poetry Midnight Musings.
What is the book about?
It’s a poetry book. Haiku to be exact.
Favorite Haiku
Envy and Ying.
Book Review
Pros
Short, smart and only one word which fits it, quirky. You will love it if you like words weaving a mystery. I read Romila’s blog often, but this was the first time I read her poems I must say it was the most refreshing surprise ever.
BOOK REVIEW: Midnight Musings by Romila
Cons:
I racked my brain for this. Only one thing a small con.I wish the book cover did more justice to the content. It says little or nothing about the magic inside.
Writing style
Fresh, thought-provoking, with a raw sense of humor.A little dark and deep in parts. But that’s life too.

Whom to gift?
A friend who loves a good read be it prose or poetry.
A poem loverAnyone who is adventurous and is not afraid to explore

Book Blurb
Though a short book of just 26 Haiku poems. It’s an anthology of contemporary English-language haiku with a willingness to have a broad definition of what constitutes haiku. It has lots of good stuff in it. Read the whole book to know more. The poems are on different themes with lots of depth and insight.
Getting up in the morning feeling fresh and energetic is the biggest joy.I remember the time when my daughter was an infant and after an all nighter I could hardly drag myself out of bed.I used to look forward to my afternoon nap sessions with the baby.
So waking up refreshed sits high up there on my list.
5 Things I am thankful for when I wake up in the morning
That first cup of gingery green tea .Oh yes, I love green tea now ,first thing in the morning. It perks me up without any guilt trips. But then I need my cup of coffee made just right at 9 am before I can go to work. I can never choose between two wonderful things.
I always thought being a multitasker is a super skill. In fact for women, it’s a survival skill.But that’s exactly why women top few lists! Lack of mindfulness can tilt the balance between doing it fabulously and doing it okay.Mindful living and less juggling makes me calm and gets my creative juices flowing.Too much stress can be paralysing
Health is your biggest wealth.True happiness is a balance of emotional wellbeing and physical fitness.When I don’t have any major health worries except the minor irritations, that’s a major boost.Equilibrium and balance are important in life.The cup of energy needs constant refilling.
If you are constantly battling ailments then its difficult to explore your creative potentials.Doctors are often guilty of a sedentary lifestyle, horrible food habits, lack of sleep and stress about patients.Take that, together with the physical risk of bodily harm by relatives/goons!That’s a perfect formula for early onset of Syndrome X and obesity
I will read and learn , write and share
God created man.Man wanted to share his thoughts, feelings far and wide.Enter the use of words.Words are a blessing.What can I say?I love reading.Its like breathing for me.I can’t survive without something to read at all times.
Reading is exploring new worlds. Reading is learning new thing.Reading is an opportunity to cut short your struggles, by learning from those who are ahead in the game.That’s why my Genius Bloggers toolkithas been amazing.It has helped me avoid years of mistakes.
That’s why you need to read.If you read the masters, you learn.When you read books which are not that good, even then you learn.
Books are the best teachers. As The King puts it aptly, “If you don’t read other people’s work,don’t expect them to read yours.”
My favorite quote from the book Handbook of Day to Day Parenting Tips by Wow parenting.
Book Summary.
A book on parenting the smart way. It talks about teaching empathy and making children feel like they belong. Because parenting is a journey of a family.
Book Review Handbook of Day to Day Parenting Tips by Wow parenting
The Pros:
A well thought out book with great insights. I especially liked the nuggets of wisdom at the end of each chapter.
The tips will help you bring out the inner artist in your child and maybe even inside you.
I used some of the methods suggested in the book myself. It’s a wonderful way to grow together. We all are intuitive parents but a little help like this will go a long way to make you feel more confident.
My favorite chapter:
How Do You Help Your Child Cultivate The ‘Power Of Imagination’?
Yesterday my six years old drew and painted the galaxy black hole included.
She also told me what a black hole is. This was part of the experiment I did following the tips from the above-mentioned chapter.
The writing style
It’s easy to understand with actionable tips which will help you amp up your parenting game.
What could be better?
I felt the book is a great resource but may be a little too heavy for first-time parents. So maybe a section division as must know good to know may know type things. You will need a peaceful spot to soak in the wisdom. But if you do, it will be well worth it.
