Yukta: Be smart and ambitious. Use your talent and potential.

Yukta: Do Yoga. Relax.
Yukta: kick some ass!

Yukta: Practise caricaturing in cute little cafe's.
Yukta: Influence people's lives. Build something lasting.

Yukta: Be around your family and friends.
Yukta: High time you worked hard in life!

Yukta: Write those pomes and stories.
Yukta: Engage in professional development. Plan career growth.

Yukta: Simplify.
Yukta: Be all you can be!

reminds me of this verse by Vikram Seth --

'Voices'

Voices in my head,
Chanting, “Kisses. Bread.
Prove yourself. Fight. Shove.
Learn. Earn. Look for love,”

Drown a lesser voice
Silent now of choice.
“Breathe in peace, and be
Still, for once, like me.”
