Trust the journey

Every moment offers immense possibilities

In the infinite potential

Those who can focus on what drives them

In passion, trustful patience & dedicated perseverance

Can reach where they choose to go…

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.

On thankfulness

There is so much more to thankfulness

Your mind body and spirit

Are integrated in the emotions

Your life becomes more abundant

Your health improves along the way

For you hold not expression or suppress feelings

You appreciate what needs to be appreciated

You create circles of light hope and joy in thankfulness.

Make sure to add yourself in your list of thankfulness.

The Way Of Love



It’s the way of love to accept and allow
It’s the way of love to empower with hope
It’s the way of love to sense pain and pleasure.
It’s the way of love to share from the heart.
It’s the way of love to shine through a smiling heart
For love is the gift of life.
And it’s the way of love to be filled with gratitude

Valuing Family

In every relationship

Family, friendship or at work

All is a matter of values

We inculcate through life.

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7045730457279221760?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android

When it all starts from respect

And ends with respect.

There is dignity of being

In a world distanced in reality

By technology and internet

Increasing the screentimes

And enslaving people

There is much need

To use it to our advantage

Than be redundant with it.

Nature’s Wisdom

This tree is uniquely shaped  and there is always a reason to be…

There is much in the pattern.
With angles that self-balance.
Supported in the shaping.
To survive the storm.
Swaying in the wind.
So full of spaces in between
To evolve and to grow.
With confidence of connection
Rooted in a solid foundation.
The tree find its own flow
Paving the pathway 
Manifesting  its uniqueness.
It finds its purpose of being.

Likewise to an organization
That grows steadfast in trust
In strength of the structure.
Spreading its wings in faith

For when the roots are strong
And potential is nurtured
In valuing the roots
In acceptance of the new…      There is freedom to expand.
With fresh perspective at play
Every leader owns an angle towards sustainability.
Great leaders may pitch great angles of perspective.
But a great team is formed by great people.
Like every living part of a tree is significant to the whole tree.
Every individual is valuable to the organization.
Every perspective matters to the cohesive whole.

A great read by my friend Ali Anani prompted me to write this post.

So much wisdom from nature in every form if we choose to see.

All is a dance

There is a dance
In every leaf and flower
In every bud and bloom
In every twig and tree
In every turn and twist
In every life in the living
Of natures creation.
There is grace of uniqueness
Of patterns, of wisdom Beyond compare…
All knowing, all pervading
Magnificent Omnipresence.
Amazing Nature
Amazing Grace.

An intelligence called Empathy


Empathy is a social intelligence  worth having and honing
Empathy meets you where you are as you are
Without judgements and competition
Empathy is a resiunding resonance
Empathic communication  leaves you touched and heard.
Empathy allows you to show acceptance and sense connection.


Empathy walks through and paves its way into the heart
Empathy is about sensing anothers heart and its ways
Empathy motivates the spirit and nurtures the being.
Empathy is a social intelligence
A much needed life skill
Empathy speaks more powerfully than words as its from all of you
Empathy connects through  in an instant.
For Empathy is the way of the heart and heart knows the way.

Social Wisdom

(IT IS A SHARED POST)

Repost credits- Treeza Rodrigues

SOME SOCIAL RULES THAT MAY HELP YOU:

  1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to;
  2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes.
  3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner.
  4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don’t you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem;
  5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public;
  6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time;
  7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what’s 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you. Besides, second opinion is good for an alternative;
  8. Never interrupt people talking. Allow them to pour it out. As they say, hear them all and filter them all;
  9. If you tease someone, and they don’t seem to enjoy it, stop it and never do it again. It encourages one to do more and it shows how appreciative you’re;
  10. Say “thank you” when someone is helping you.
  11. Praise publicly. Criticize privately;
  12. There’s almost never a reason to comment on someone’s weight. Just say, “You look fantastic.” If they want to talk about losing weight, they will;
  13. When someone shows you a photo on their phone, don’t swipe left or right. You never know what’s next;
  14. If a colleague tells you they have a doctors’ appointment, don’t ask what it’s for, just say “I hope you’re okay”. Don’t put them in the uncomfortable position of having to tell you their personal illness. If they want you to know, they’ll do so without your inquisitiveness;
  15. Treat the cleaner with the same respect as the CEO. Nobody is impressed at how rude you can treat someone below you but people will notice if you treat them with respect;
  16. If a person is speaking directly to you, staring at your phone is rude;
  17. Never give advice until you’re asked;
  18. When meeting someone after a long time, unless they want to talk about it, don’t ask them their age and salary;
  19. Mind your business unless anything involves you directly – just stay out of it;
  20. Remove your sunglasses if you are talking to anyone in the street. It is a sign of respect. Moreso, eye contact is as important as your speech; and
  21. Never talk about your riches in the midst of the poor. Similarly, don’t talk about your children in the midst of the barren.

22.After reading a good message try to say “Thanks for the message”.

APPRECIATION remains the easiest way of getting what you don’t have….
