Correction does much,
but encouragement does more.Like the sun after a shower!
In every opportunity to teach, train and educate if every teacher, manager, leader acknowledges the value of appreciation and encouragement it will create and leave a positive impression forever in the heart of the learner or follower.

On Contentment
Life’s desires and dares
Propel you to many pathways
Each a different experience
Like chalk and cheese
It’s all in the knowing
What is enough for you!
In knowing yourself
Awareness grows
To understand more
In acknowledgement and acceptance
Do you know…
Your own point of saturation
As much as satisfaction ?
Can you sense contentment
As much as fulfillment?
Are you certain that you have enough or do you want more
And most importantly…
Do you know you are enough for you?

To think happy
Create some space in you
Allow happy thoughts in
Think well to feel happy
Inside out…and outside in
Reach out with good intentions
Wellness is a work in progress
Be well and be happy 😊

Exclusion Culture
They bring nine chairs for ten children, and they tell the children that the winner is the one who gets the chair, and whoever remains without a chair is out of the game.
Then they reduce the number of chairs each time and a child comes out every time
Until one child remains and he is declared the winner
The child learns the culture of “Myself, myself, and in order to succeed, I must remove others.”
And in Japanese kindergartens, they play the game of chairs too
And they also come with nine chairs for ten kids, with a difference.
That they tell the children that you have more chairs
If one of you remain without a chair, everyone loses
All the children try to hug each other
So that ten children can sit on nine chairs
And then they reduce the number of chairs successively
With the rule remaining that they must make sure that no one remains without a chair, or else they will all lose
The child learns culture
“I cannot succeed without the help of others to succeed”
From Exclusion to Inculsion
To trust the team to do better,
Give them confidence that…
They can trust you
They can take the step
They can be creative
They can try options
They can make mistakes
They can get support
They can improvise
They can win!
A great team has a great leader who has their back!

I read these two lines by Stan Smith today…
Experience tells you what to do
Confidence allows you to do it .
Will also add…
And patience paves the path.
For all that you need
Will reveal itself in time.
Trust yourself to deliver.
Sharing my photo of a beautiful bloom from my garden…for who better than a flower to express this truth of life.
Think well & trust you.

Your dreams holds the key to your purpose …dare to live it !
Yet often dreams hold a vision
To some part of your life
Dreams speak to you
When you least expect it to
Do you have dreams that are vivid
That you just can’t forget
Maybe there is a reason
For it to be so , perhaps there is a learning
For you to understand more.
Have you had times where dreams have conveyed the truths which you perhaps know but have not acknowledged.
Dreams interpretation has more to say beyond the obvious.
Yet personally I have found my own interpretation for some of my vivid dreams
An in the knowing is the healing.
“Dare to do what you most love …
the universe paves the way and how…”.💙🙏💙

Beyond the glitter and glory
Power has a parodoxical equation.
Power can be constructive and yet corruptive.
Those with the power know only too well…
Uneasy lies the head that wears the Crown
Tentacles of power
Seeping from within,
Surging of the webbed grasp
The unnerving truth of rigidity
The vicelike grip of conformity
The stronghold of absolute authority
The merciless and binding royalty.
Expectations of undivided loyalty.
The Crown bears the burden
Often silently withholding expressions.
The choice rests with the wearer of the crown 👑
Yet …
When passion drives the power with a larger purpose beyond self in perseverance and patience
Power becomes a priceless responsibility
Such is the paradox of power

Today as all Indians celebrate 75 glorious years of Indian Independence…
Let us take an oath to value the ‘Dignity of life’ today and forevermore.
For every life deserves the ‘Dignity of Being’ with a freedom to be respected as they are , a freedom to be able to express, freedom to be valued and feel safe and secure, as every other life.
Happy Independence Day!

Musings on the Metaverse & More…
Acknowledge…
Betwixt and between
The you & I,
The us and the we,
Is a ocean of multiverses.
A tapestry of metaverses . Springing into existence
Creating connection
Beyond compare
Ingenious innovation
Reaching beyond the known
Forging ahead dimensions
Unfolding technology
With palpable sensations
Creating new possibilities
Exploring potential
Understanding elements
Of space, time and distance
Challenging norms
Quantifying needs & wants
Finding solutions
In a changing world
Simplifying complexities
In the realms of life & living.
Yet as this booming bubbles
Is it a catalyst of changes?
Some sensational and brilliant
Some scary & confounding
Simply know it’s on its way
And is here to stay
As our world will redefine
Life beyond existence…
Accept…
There is bound to be a boom
Colloidal chaos & confusion
In chasing an unreal world
And finding hope to live on
In the very illusions in making.
Know…
Everything life appears now
Is a momentary phenomenon. Of perceptions that deliver
The solutions for the soul.

Optimism
Musings on Positive Mindsetting and Optimism by my mother Anjana.
Love this piece by her.
Seeing the glass half full or half empty makes a lot of difference to your mind set. Positive thinking is not to ignore the negativities of
matters or situations. It is to see the options to overcome the obstacles in the best possible way. Seeing goodness and being positive reduces unnecessary stress and unwanted heaviness of heart. It lightens the mind, to a cheerful mood and to a healthy you.
Being positive does not erase the difficulties or seriousness of the problem. But when you look at the light out side the dark tunnel, finding ways to cross the darkness becomes easier. The severity of the dark cloud fades away when you have the bright Sun in your vision. A positive mind strengthens your will power to cope up in situations , reduces your stress level resulting in a healthier you, increases life span.
A positive mind can identify and filter the negative thoughts at its seed level and tries to steer away from it. Devoid of imaginary fears you can see problems at its reality with an optimistic mind. Approaching life, facing its realities with a positive attitude makes solutions easier. It gives you better resiliency over adversity, reduces depression, improves your immunity. When your mental strength is increased, it becomes easy to identify and manage challenges, to bring out best positive results.
A positive mind makes you more stronger, , more communicative, more people friendly, more humorous, & healthier. It makes you a better person to be with.
Always be positive, be happy, be healthy. Surround yourself with positive people.

It’s often good to remember you are born to live.
Don’t live because you are born, don’t go where life takes you . Make life come alive where you are…
