On Self Belief


It’s easy to get caught up in seeking validation and approval from others, but the truth is that the only person you truly need to impress is yourself.

You are enough, just as you are, and your worth doesn’t depend on the opinions or actions of others. When you recognize your own value and believe in yourself, you can accomplish anything you set your mind to.

Learning to be comfortable in your own skin and trusting in your own abilities can take time, but it’s a journey worth taking.

When you focus on cultivating a positive relationship with yourself, you’ll find that you’re happier, more confident, and better equipped to handle life’s challenges. Remember, you don’t need anyone else’s approval or validation to be happy and fulfilled. You are enough, simply by existing as you are.

It’s common to fall into the trap of seeking validation and approval from others, but the reality is that your self-worth isn’t dependent on the opinions or actions of others. You are enough, and improving yourself from where you are, is the only thing that truly matters. By recognizing your own value and having faith in yourself, you can achieve anything you set your mind to.

Developing a positive relationship with yourself and being comfortable with who you are takes time, but it’s a worthwhile journey.

By prioritizing your own well-being and self-belief, you’ll discover a greater sense of happiness, confidence, and resilience.

Remember that your happiness and fulfillment don’t require external validation or approval.

You are enough simply by being you.

On listening

“To listen entails a fundamental letting go of self-centeredness. We have to be willing to put down our own thoughts, views, and feelings temporarily to truly listen.” 

Oren Jay Sofer

Power of listening

Is in self control

In hearing to understand

The when, what, where, who & how

In curiousity patience and wonder

In caring to empathise

And connect without interrupting.

In knowing to balance the spoken words

By truly caring to hear with all of you…

Relationships heal in the listening.

Blossom as you are

A flower doesn’t stop being beautiful just because somebody walks by without noticing it, nor does it cease to be fragrant if its scent is taken for granted. The flower just continues to be its glorious self: elegant, graceful, and magnificent.

Our Mother Nature has provided us with these immeasurably valuable teachers that blossom despite their short lifespan, stars that continue to shine even if we fail to stare at them, and trees that don’t take it personally if we never bow down in gratitude for the oxygen they provide.

We also have an incredible and unlimited capacity to love, but the question is: Can we do it like a flower? Without needing to be admired, adored, or even noticed? Can we open our hearts completely to give, forgive, celebrate, and joyfully live our lives without hesitation or need for reciprocity?

It seems like sometimes we go beyond taking things personally and are noticeably deflated when unappreciated. In fact, devastated, we wilt in sorrow and then attempt to guard ourselves by withholding, using all sorts of protections and defenses. We get hurt (even angry) if our boss fails to recognize an astonishing feat, if a lover pulls their hand away, or when a friend forgets our birthday. Can you imagine a flower copping an attitude for not being praised, or the moon dimming its glow because we’re too self-absorbed to notice it more often?

Make an effort to shine NO MATTER WHAT, to love unconditionally, and to be a kind and gentle soul (even when nobody is watching).

And, if you’re so inclined, hug the next tree you see and say, “Thank you!”

A few questions to yourself…

Do you think you have been caring for your own body mind and soul?

How much time do you allocate to your self care every day?

Creative Journey

Photo by Meruyert Gonullu on Pexels.com

Creativity thrves in an open minded approach with an ability to trust and try.


To take a chance is to take a step into the unexplored unknown dimensions of potential possibilities.

The creative spirit is replenished in such an atmosphere.The forays into the unknown can be a pure game of chance.

A dare unto beyond that may or may not pay rich dividends. But in those trials and tribulations a creative soul is nurtured. And new paths are created to journey on!

Nature finds its way

We are what we are
With the possibilities for evolution
Inside us all.
And yet each arrives at their own time
To the journey meant for them
To carve a path that they are meant to.
Life never claims to be fair
Life is as is
It is within us to know
What to hold on to hone, or set free
For nature is always in flow
And true nature always finds its way.

Infinite vibrance

Our vibrance
Our universe is full of waves of energy.

And all life is a dance of energy in varied forms .
In the subatomic level all is vibrational and moving.

We are all pulsating oceans of energy fields.

This very waves of energy is what makes us unique as we are in ourselves and in the way we move and interact with one another.

It will feel just right…

There is always hope

For things to get better

There is always tommorow

Another day full of promise

Keep the faith and trust

It will feel just right.

Acknowledgement

How to see the good

When bad is doing the round

To bring the good in focus

Perhaps you need to search

For it in their way of being

In the visible & hidden nature

There is much that happens

In the circumstances

And much that goes invisible

For it cannot be expressed

For it is seen as a weakness

To be vulnerable

To be sensitive & emote

Are qualities that are negated

For it makes ones life difficult

But life has many shades

The very weakness for one

Can be a strength for another

It’s all in the way we see it.

Every life is precious

With many gifts of nature

It is in us to acknowledge.

Lovely idea

Finding the wonderful in every day

Is a lovely idea

But it means you have to remember to look for it

In the daily moments

Within you, in people & things around you

And consistently so…

No matter what who when where and why

And you will be sure to find it.

Lovely idea that makes life wonderful in itself.

On Success

Success is an interesting journey and not a destination
The more you sense the bigger picture
You lovingly loose yourself in something hat is bigger than yourself…
The greater your energy
and the closer you are to where you want to be.
Success is within each of us waiting for us to make a
move towards it.

Power of a Moment

Everything starts from a decisive moment…

Decision is often the difference between greatness and mediocrity. In every man’s life there comes a time when he must search for a cause, a work, an ideal to which he can give himself. Whether he says ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to the challenge will determine his future.”

Wilferd Peterson

A great motivational quote.

It opens up a few relevant questions on decisions and decision making.

How decisive are you about your life?

Do you take your decisions seriously?

Or do often you let/ want others take decisions for you.

Do you take time to make decisions?

Do you stand for your decisions and do your decisions stand the test of time?

There are different decision making styles based on how a problem is perceived.

A good decision begins with begins with identification and envisioning of the goal ,

Secondly it is important to collect all information so that you can weigh options and alternatives.

Next it is paramount to consider the consequences of the decision before taking the decision.

Once a decision is taken is necessary to be able to evaluate the decisions in time.

Worth thinking of how much a good decision in a moment has power of change life.

On Gratefulness

If only we can remind ourselves

Of the preciousness of this now

We will perhaps be more conscious of how we are

Of how life transforms itself

In living life

In mindful awareness

We perhaps will value

The necessity of gratitude

In our everyday moments

And that every now is precious

Enough to fill with gratitude.

Trustful ways

In any organization
When leadership listens
Empathy is nurtured
Safe space is created
Conversations  connect
Teams bond in trustfulness
Productivity rises
In balanced motivation
Both intrinsic  & external
Work becomes less dense
In collaboration & cooperation
Valuing diversity of potential
Possibilities are explored
Challenges gets simplified
Structure becomes systems
Protocols are in place
Change is acknowledged
In faith goodwill and trust
That we are stronger together
There is unity in diversity
As respect becomes culture.
Trust becomes the way.
