These are certainly abilities worth cultivating :))
Ability to see the good is a great habit to cultivate
Ability to respect the people for who they are.
Ability to work with diversity of thoughts
Ability to coexist in peace and harmony.
Ability to generate goodwill whenever we can.
Ability to make light of things
Ability to dance in the rain
As much as in the lightness of being.

Full of positivity of spirit
And harmony in synchrony.
Celebrate the colours of life.

A moment of self-compassion can change your entire day.
A string of such moments can change the course of your life.”

This very relevant quote came my way & I simply had to share ❤

Such tranquility
Peaceful pink haven
Beautiful serene places…
A lovely moment of reckoning
To breathe in and sense
The glory of nature
In all its Springtime expressions.

Team Management
Today the world is expanding rapidly on many fronts with shrinking communication time and reachability across the world… and the fact is, organizations are confronted with a multigenerational workplace.
Values and beliefs that was so far held by the world are finding new definitions and for many its difficult to catch up with the changing trends. New words of communication are coined every day and the different generations suddenly find themselves alien to each other.
For organizations to acclimatize to a changing world, the old patterns of thoughts and mindsets need fresh perspective…
Time and again a revision of what’s redundant or what cannot work in a fast moving world needs identification but with discernment as there is much wisdom garnered in the experiences of life and living.
Here are 6 A’s worth imbibing in work places to sustain teams and evolve for the better.
1. Accept
Accept there is a place for every one… be inclusive of the diversity… Accept that the differences are what is unique to the person and teams need people with diverse intelligence to take it to the next level. Every stage comes along with some learnings.
2. Acknowledge
Acknowledge the value of interdependence at work strengthening a culture of inclusiveness. Importance of co-operation in collaborative work cannot be stressed enough.
3. Allow
Allow the expression of new ideas, suggestions and let it find listening ears no matter which team or who it comes from.
4.Appreciate
Appreciate and celebrate the work done, even the little wins help to motivate the team. Appreciation is an evolved method of correction.
5. Align
Align the set of achievable goals of teams with the mission & vision of the organization. More the alignment the faster and easier the channelling of communication by maintaining open communication greater the chance of successful endeavors.
6. Accountable
Accountability is being accountable about to being able take responsibility at all times and own it.
As a Consultant with a deep interest in Wellness, at work this is what I help facilitate day in and out especially so, in these uncertain times.
From applications of art and movements to creating space for dialogues to understand shifting mindsets & perspectives I have been mentoring diverse teams at work places.
Every team afterall, is made of unique individuals but the issues faced as a team are often similar. As a result of interaction & the scope of work different patterns of team dynamics are created.
If you have been responsible to manage teams to collaborate effectively….
Do share what kind of challenges have cropped up in your teams and how have you managed them.
Would love to understand more.

A dear friend shared this picture on social Media and it left me contemplating…
We are born to connect
In one way or other
For a purpose larger
Than our individual self
There is light that we have
That we ourselves may not know
The potential of, that manifests
To serve at the right time.
There is always a reason
For this now, so rise above despair
And look onward and upward
The way is forward in faith
To live and help heal some more.
No wonder its said ‘Hands that help
Is holier than lips that pray…’
We are carriers of hope
That pass on for posterity
Our life is intricately weaved
In every moment of our being
Through the echelons of time
For a reason, we may or never know
Such is the ‘Mystic of life’
In all its brilliant manifestations.

Wisdom is in the Wind
In the breeze so cool
Wisdom gently rests
Buzzing like the bee
And blows off again…
Singing the song of freedom
Hear it whistling through the rustling leaves…
Showing the vulnerability
Of the moment, now and then.
Wisdom of water is legendary
In its flow is the secret of letting go
Of peace and forgiveness
Of ease and acceptance.
Water is flexible and agile
To adapt itself along the way
Yet strong enough to persevere
And smoothen the stones
Into pebbles in the flow.
To be able to imbibe the profound
Wisdom of the wind & water
Is to know the wisdom of the flow
In knowing that you are not in the flow
But you are the flow!

Gratitude is a beautiful attitude.
Both in the giver and receiver.
There is certain change of heart
Life evolves for the better.
Yes how beautiful it is
When we begin and end the day
With the grace of heartfelt gratitude!
Savvy
Take nothing for granted
There is always a reason
For things to be, where they are
As they are, however they are…
Let your heart be ever grateful
For things that you have in this now.
And for that which passed you by…
All is well …in this now.
Stay thankful
And take nothing for granted!

True meaning of St Valentine Day!
Celebrate life and living
Leave heart prints
Wherever you go
Today and every day!
Two left feet or two right feet
Just learn to swing to the beat
And find the rhythm of your own heart.
And learn to dance and make a healthy start…
Just a little step and sway …
Bring the balance in your way.
Yes all we need is just a ‘Dance’ everyday!

A true friend is there to support you if you fall.
Allow space for you to grow
Cheer you along the way
Take interest in your journey
Mean well for you
Stop you from self harm
Believe in you without a doubt
Yet dare to tell the truth to you.
Be with you so you are never alone.
Now think about it…
Are you your own best friend ?

The heart feels
The mind thinks
And generates a seed of thought
But the heart is all encompassing
In the core of the heart
Is the garden of life.
The heart is all pervasive
The heart is willingness
It accepts the seeds of thoughts
It colours it with emotion
Sometimes in all its vividity
In the brightest of tints
Or at times in shadowing tones
Between the dark and light of life
The heart nurtures and nourishes
Thoughts seeds to life.
In positively enriching thoughts
It empowers life to evolve .
What truly matters is..
To plant a positive seed in your heart
Allow the mind to help the heart
Discard the unwanted,
Weed out the unnecessary
Trim the excess growth
Support the saplings of goodwill
Balancing between the heart & mind
Every moment of awareness
Can change the course of life!

There is great power in words…
To charm another,influence or drive a point home.
Engagement online can turn better on bitter in a split second.
It is all in the choice of words used to convey a message.Crossing the Culture Threshold!
What to one might be just a poetic expression
To another might be a glitch of discretion.
Express if one must
Feel free to feel the way you feel is the way to feel
But only as long as anothers peace you don’t unknowingly steal.
For at times in the surging words of emotion…
Arises unnecessary stress and discomfort.
Better to know the pause in the space between our steps
And value your edges in every move.
For in every positive step in discretion
There is simply the strength of trust without mention.
When I penned these lines they were specifically for driving the message home gently that no one can tread on another’s emotional space without permission especially online using the power and persuasion of words…
True respect for another being can simply be about letting others be.
