Your life is a result of your choices
From what you eat
What you watch
What you hear
What you speak
Whom you befriend
Whom you bear
Whom you meet
To the thoughts you think
It’s all in what you choose
To allow & let go.

You choose

Weathering the storms
Wither not yourself away
Weathering the storms
Every life finds itself
In the whirlpool of chaos.
And often unfortunately so.
Pick yourself up
Dust away the doubts
Don your best attitude
And look ahead
At a not so distant time
And trust in yourself
For storms precede the calm.
Sense the strength of spirit
Moving towards your purpose
Know every storm has one
Find yourself on your way
To fulfilling your soul purpose.

May be another day
A life can be lived forward
And in every moment, easier
If there is less regret
And more acceptance.
It makes living life worth it .
For if you keep looking back
Revisiting memories
A little too often
You will perhaps also sense
The number of times
You didn’t do what you wanted
Saying maybe another day.
Reality is in realizing
This moment now…
Holds all you choose
To make of it.
It’s all embedded in it
Embody it in present
Live not in fear and worry
Seek comfort in past if you wish
But don’t dwell in it too long
Let the past be ,
For even if you want
You cannot hold the hands
Of times gone by ..
Time ticks on
So move with time.
Acknowledge it & regret less.

What is happiness to you?
Happiness is sensed
In the moments
Loving myself to be
To being, all that I can be
Allowing the self to enjoy
The life in the moments
Can be happiness to me.
I read this meaningful quote I share below…
‘Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrating it for everything that it is’.
Mandy Hale

Being human
Our own struggles seem the most difficult. Our journey of life may seem unique to us.And yet if we bring to awareness that this imagined spectrum of universe is a dot in the multitude of multiverses yet unknown, we realise our so called egoes are but a tool for motivating our life to keep us exploring the possibilities in our lifetime.
But instead of seeing the bigger picture we see ourselves as mammoth beings & as if only our life and our journey is important.
How far away from the truth we are?
If we only keep seeing our circle of life is but a spec in the cosmic ocean we will realize our truths as humans and learn to be in touch with our humanity.

Doing good anyway
Do good
And when you do
Think not of acknowledgement
Nor recognition
Do good
From the goodness of your heart
And you will find joy in it.
Make it a practice everyday
To do at least one good deed .
And soon it will become a habit
That happens naturally
And just know
In time…
You will do good anyway
Savvy
Awareness is only one part
If we really choose to acknowledge
That awareness is only one part
The other is practice
If you can bring the two parts together
And open ourselves to the strengths of being
In resilience and love
We can shape ourselves and the world for the better
Savvy
Allow and just be…
Allow yourself spirit to emanate joy
Allow the body to feel its contentment
Allow the self to embody peace
Allow the heart to open itself to possibilities
Allow the self to move in space and sense the freedom it offers.
Just be and allow
The bouncing ball
Bouncing ball
Think of any organization, like a bouncing ball. No two moments are alike Change is order of things. In such moments the leaders at the top need all the support they can get from their team. And for that clarity in communication be it timely updates , to them & to the team is equally paramount.
When the ball bounces are extreme, it could be many factors, like the winds of change that’s affecting it. Let’s call it external forces be it political, economic,global changes and more…
No one can predict things to the T but if risks are part of the buisness, then leadership needs both resilience from the entire team and quick decision taking to keep the company ‘ball balancing’ afloat.
In times of internal instability from unexpected forces within the company, affecting the state of buisness the leaders need more than just attention to detail to bring the dissenting fragments and solve crisis .
It’s a given that even in stable times there is always going to be that bounce in the ball think of it as the pulse in the heartbeat. Just that the force and velocity is a little more manageable . Acknowledging it as a part of risk management makes it more realistic than procrastinating from planning for it.
Whatever be the force, the torque generated decides the nature of impact it has. Being prepared and building the resilience muscle and creating a strong srategic team in easier times, helps in times of crisis management.
Embracing the changes is about understanding the experiences of highs and lows as a part of the journey. And most of all seeing the setbacks as an opportunity to bounce back stronger again.

Valley of Reactivity
Between & betwixt spaces
Of pause and activity
In the thinking and doing
Overcome the challenges
Of the conflicts of being.
Move on from valleys of reactions
From impulsive actions
That stems from assumptions
Reach out in responsiveness
Being positively intentional
Leading to clarity
In the deeper listening.

Power of Poise
The silent language of leadership.
Have you ever experienced how some people exude confidence in just their efforless presence?
It isnt just about the words you speaks but how you show up .
And if you can imagine how the body posture influences the way you move when in alignment you will sense how you exude a quiet confidence flowing in every step you take. Like dancers deportment,creating the art of presence. Quite akin to the silent language of leadership.
Here are a few insights on how deportment influences leadership.
More than 55% of communication is nonverbal and hence how you carry yourself speaks volumes without a word
Maintaining a good posture enhances confidence & authority thereby influences how others perceive leadership.
Composure & Presence
Dancers composure shapes their movements And while dance movement training builds poise it also enhances emotional intelligence & resilience all valuable traits for effective leadership.
Adaptability is Power
Whether in a dance or in leadership situations with quick decision taking & bouncing back in crisis the ability to move with fluidity & grace in changes that come with the challenges in time defines success.
Energy speaks louder than words
Leaders, like dancers, must be fully engaged aware of their space, their audience, their message.
Self Check-in
How are you breathing in this now? Is your breath calm or labored.?
What is your attitude reflecting ? Composure & confidence or Confusion and nervous hesitation.
Power of Alignment
How about if the next time you step into a room you become aware of your posture the way you are carrying yourself? And then intentionally align yourself.
After all, like dancing, leadership is consistent practice, not just a single performance.

Live your life
Dare the space
Of the yet unknown
Even if you are scared
Dare to step it up everyday
You can pause a little
Along the way, but don’t stop
Keep moving on
Soon you will be steps closer
To your chosen goal
Dare your fears
And move forward…
A step in time
This life is yours
Live your life .
Don’t leave it for another.

So much more…
Hopegiving & motivational words that serve as a reminder to self.
Feel free to share with whomever you think needs it at this moment.
Let not the problems that come by boggle you .
Know time has all the answers
Keep the faith.
Let not the hear and say affect you.
There is always more than what is said or heard.
So much more.
Let not the passion for whatever you do dwindle
Rest & recharge yourself & keep the spirit alive.
Let not the weight of what you carry pull you down.
You are definitely not defined by how much you bear.
You are much more than that.
So go ahead, aspire to transform yourself for the better
And keep moving closer to your dreams.
Taking a step in time.
And most importantly, trust in yourself
For there is always so much more
To you, for you & by you.

Turning…
My painting interpretation for today’s thoughts …
In this dance of life
Turn your doubts to decisions
Turn your worries to wins
Turn your pain to possibilities
Turn your hurts to hope
All is a matter of a turn.

Smiles from the heart
Being a happy person
I have tided over
The challenges with a smile
Grateful for the dance in my life
I draw energy from movements
As they appear to move me
I unwind and unfurl
My hearts deepest feelings
In the flow of the moves
I sense the beauty of this now.
And I smile from the heart.
