Timeless thoughts
Our thoughts make us
Who we are
The way we think
Becomes us.
Our thoughts are powerful
For they travel far
Thoughts make all the difference.
Think well
Live well.

Entrepreneurship truths
Workers want to be Executives
Executives want to be Managers
Managers want to be Leaders
Leaders want to be Founders
Founders want to be Investors
Investors want profits over people.
Truth is…
Even if one of them are there for the right reasons, it starts to make a meaningful difference.

Self Healing
Head to toe
Toe to head
Breathe it out
Let it go..
Heal overwhelm
Heal overthinking
Heal your heart
Heal yourself
In the mixed bag of lides emotions
Some get felt a little too deeply
Embedding itself into the psyche.
And affecting thoughts & actions
Emotions too need release
Unshackle to let go and free up
Cut the cord of emotions
Before they overwhelm you.
Find some time to breathe it out
To process and reflect & let go
To exhale the unwanted emotions.
And heal your heart .

Daring the unknown
Our conditioning has a role to play in the way we see people and things around us. To trust is to dare into the unknown.
Just read this interesting article …
19 professionals walk through unknown villages for 3 days — without a single rupee | Pune News – The Indian Express
Amazing to read about these Braveheart who dared to experience first hand self-belief beyond fear…and who came back enriched with experiences.
Touching to read about the kindhearted people who came their way like saviours.
Pretty sure they may all have had some life altering experiences in one way or another.
Against all odds
Breaking the rut of routine
In forging new pathways
Beyond fear for survival
All preconceived notions fall
In the dare into the unknown.

All for the better
And sometimes when things don’t go as planned
May be you have been saved from some unknown obstacle
May be it wasn’t the right time
May be its all for the better.

What do you see?
What’s the first thing that comes to mind?
Is it the nature of the land?
Do you sense the sandstorm?
Do you see the vivid colours of the womens clothes juxtaposed against the barren land?
Do you see them huddle together taking refuge with no where to go?
This picture evokes emotions.
The wind, the women
Heads to toe covered
Yet braving the sun barefoot
The sand across the land
The parched dry pots.
What else do you see?

Perfect imperfections
Perfection is never the inspiration for nothing is perfect always.
Acknowledging ones imperfections & managing it with grace is true inspiration.
The need for perfection creates undue pressure. Being able to work on the journey without undue pressure can be joyful journey.

Be an encourager
On Coaches & Coaching
At times just when a coach knows it’s progress the client wants to give up.
They may feel the changes are not enough or there may be other personal factors that may be inhibiting their success. It is important to acknowledge their emotions at the moment and celebrate small wins precisely showing how far they have come. As a coach being empathic & encouraging while being flexible and adaptable as you adjust strategies for the way forward aids and facilitates progress.
Often clients face doubt and overwhelm at some point or the other. It is important then to remind them of their why and guide them to stay on course.
Your thoughts are welcome.

Kindred spirits
Pride makes us artificial
Humility makes us real
Thomas Merton
So a long long time ago when I started sharing my writing skills, I received a beautiful message from a reader, who also introduced Thomas Merton, the poet & monk to me. I was intrigued by his words. And went on to read more. For back then I didn’t know who Thomas Merton was and had never heard or come across his works.
This morning I came across the above quote, another gem of a quote from the mystical light of this soul…
There are some souls whose works strike a deep chord without ever meeting them… you sense a connection in their words..
I am grateful in all humility to have come across the profoundness of these kindred spirits. 🙏
To emote is to heal
Sit down with your feelings
Like a good friend
Listen to it to understand
What it conveys to you
It works out for you.
Your emotions are not your enemy
They are your vent
They are your support systems
For the body to feel at ease
Be a good friend to you
And your emotions will thank you
As you thank them.

Thrive in Gratitude
Life hands many a tough lessons in our journeys. But to strive to be strong and tread through it all, not just by surviving the ordeals but thriving takes inner strength in conviction. It helps to focus on your sense of purpose if you have deciphered it by now, else take each moment as momentary. Know the pain you feel in this now will be gone in the next. This attitude takes you on a spiritual path of letting go. It makes a profound impact in life as you continue to practise regularly. Regardless of outcomes you are thriving…in Gratitude for the lessons from life in the living.🙏

Travel On…
I wrote this poem back in time after an unexpected opportunity to travel set me off across exploring unforgettable places and spaces on my own.
Yesterday as I was conversing with one of my earlier dance student and friend now, he somehow reminded me of this poem again , as he has been traveling the length and breadth of India on a bike, covering over 80% of India.
While I wait to see his photo shares and hear more from him about his experience in the journey.
Thought of sharing my verses again.
Travel On
If you are given an opportunity to take a journey
Take it, for you meet many versions of you.
Along the road.
Some you cherish, some cherish you.
Some that change you and some that you change.
Fear not the travel or the traveling…
For one thing is certain
You come away enriched and wiser in every journey.
Travel to liberate yourself
From self assumed notions
To see the light on the other side
There is much to unlearn and unbox
As you travel yield in to the insights
Travel every once in a while if opportunity arises,
Take the chance,
You are richer in your explorations much as your experiences.
Travel on …

Thank the good
In the depths of darkness
Keep the faith on a new dawn
In the numerous wrongs
See the rights
Thank the good
Be grateful for it
Make it a practice of a life time
Know you’re in a better space.
