On Expectations

Our expectations are our internal picture of what we anticipate will happen in future. When our expectations are met we are happy but when not, they set us up for disappointments.

Setting the expectations and giving clarity can be effective in a professional environment. Yet when we do not communicate it or when we set unrealistic expectations it can lead to anxiety frustration & loss of trust.

A few traits to develop that help in handling our expectations better.

Communication : Acing our internal and external communication establishes an understanding of the expectations.

Adaptability : An art of change management. In being adaptable to a new and different reality we learn to manage our expectations.

Kindness & compassion : Both help us hone our attitudes. The way we feel and emote during a challenging moment helps us manage and alter the situation.

Patience : A virtue that helps us to not be too exacting on ourselves and others.

Equanimity : Being non judgmental helps in being less edgy and more balanced in our expectations.

After all…

Less you expect
Less  you worry
Less you stress
More is the faith
More the love
More life

In this now

In this now

Lies the potential

In the possibilities

In this now

Is the wisdom garnered

In living life

Until this now

In this now

Is the soulfulness

In the being

Without this now

Nothing is .

All is in this now.

Subtlety Of Consciousness

All matter is energy 
And we are unique speckles of vibrations.
All resonating in the universality of life and living.
Trust you matter, more than you know 
Believe you can and are making a difference 
As you connect deeply in the universal flow 
Tune in to reflect the truth of your being.
 
Every word every deed 
Every step every move 
Impacts the larger whole 
Just as much as the world around you.
So start with who and what is around you 
Sense your intuitive self talking to you 
Telling much in all its subtlety.
Trust it, for it is abound
With the strength of the subtle energies.
Resonate joy, abundance, balance
Resonate love ,harmony and peace
For you have the power to transform your world

The Luminous Mind

In the consistency of mindfulness practices
The mind attains luminosity
A state of radiance of the primal mind.
The mind may be obscured
Every now and then
By the passing thoughts
Like the clouds obscuring the sun
And yet the sun knows
The clouds are meant to drift along
As the path of light shines through
Like ray’s of light beams itself
Never underestimate the power

Of the Luminous Mind

A Place for Peace

Ego says
Once every thing falls in place I will find peace

Spirit says,
Find peace and every thing  will fall in place.

And I say
Give peace a place in your heart and everything else is peacefully in place.

People Matter

Recently I came across a very relevant set of words share.

100% of your employees are people

100% of your customers are people

100% of your investors are people

If you don’t understand people you don’t understand buisness.

Never a more simply conveyed truth on the value of being people centric in buisness.

And it all starts from paying attention and listening from the human perspective.

Their desires needs their pain points the problems they want solutions for and hence its important for a business to pay attention to building a meaningful and memorable humane relationship with all these segments of ‘ people’ to create a pathway to make a positive difference

Companies may have many people centric policies rolled out, they may proclaim they are people centric and may be they have invested much to make their office spaces comfortable for instance but without building a relationship of trust and transparency it is still a far shot towards their highest potential.

To garner the support from people, it is important to think from and include the peoples perspective..

The voice of the people, employees customers investors all give great insights on path of continous improvements & the new possibilities of development.

What do you think?

Do you feel valued at the workplace?

Do you have any experiences to share on this?

On Listening

There is the power of Sounds

Discovered in betwixt the Silence

In the meditative mode of stillness

In contemplative introspection

In the expansiveness of understanding

In the depth of listening

There is then the power of words

Of the vision in the verses

Of expressions in the sensing

Flowing with feelings in the sharing

All vibrations in the resonance.

There is in the power of Silence

Discovered betwixt the words

That speaks the truth yet unspoken

When Silence Speaks

It is good to listen.

The Paradox of Idea Generation

While working with teams in collaboration Our assumptions and notions often lead us.

Our expressions are guarded and stunted in Our doubts kicks in a resistance to be free.

The attitudes that we carry around ideas
Often block us from generating fresh ideas
We believe our idea must be the best idea.
We believe we cannot say what we think.
We fear the criticism of what we openly say
We hold back thinking sharing is not wise.
Or that someone  will steal our ideas.
Or that we will not get credit for it.
Or perhaps the need for perfection kicks in

All are the real blocks in creative ideations
Without faith and confidence in ourselves
We cannot express & ideate in groups
Yet nothing is achieved in silos
Growth is a consequence of the sharing.

Creative possibilities are enhanced
In a more exploratory space of learning Adopting  a more collaborative approach.
As we begin to share, we learn some more.

Great ideas are born from creative collaboration.

Have you tried to collaborate creatively with a team? Do share your experiences.

Words of wisdom

Awareness is built in the sensing

Like how only when the feelings are felt

In the heart there is a sensing of hope.

Like how time is measured of the moments

All else is illusory and will fade away!

Care to tune inwards to sense and feel

The gift of your own life in the heartbeats

Value the preciousness of life itself

Live it Lovingly!

Words to live by…

Live with authenticity

Pretense falls flat some time or the other

Steer clear of dependency,

Dependency create inequality.

Prudence is being always on guard

It is a better form of defense.

Listen to understand

Without trying to prove anything

Avoid the attack mode of offense

Choose to communicate better

Converse calmly create peace

Wherever you are …

Footprints

This Birthday I am deeply grateful for the good energies and wish it likewise for all here.

And I share here,

what I deeply feel about living life and leaving imprints on the sands of time ….


Leave footprints if you must .
On the sands of time in trust
Just remember ….
No footprint is totally foolproof
to be washproof

All is a game
like the tides that tame
Even the strongest surfer …
Eternal to all is time and nothing else
And sparking in the cosmos we are all just wayfarers

Tread softly
Love authentically
Live lovingly
Behave empathically
Speak truthfully
Move consciously
Grow gratefully !

Finding Meaning

Photo by Quang Nguyen Vinh on Pexels.com

We all sail in the same boat of unending hope
We all learn of life in the living
Sharing experiences along the way.
We adjust our sails as we sense the winds of wisdom blow
And follow in hope of discovering more in the flow…
And in the leading and the following
Life goes on…
Finding meaning for itself!

On Goals

What kinds of goals do you set for yourself?

How often do you set goals?

Do you often check on your goals ?

How inspired do you feel by these goals?

Do you feel motivated by your own goals?

Do you often stretch your goals ?

Do they challenge you to do more?

The goals you set for yourself

Speak much about you and your nature

The goals you set ought to lead you

Towards a journey in faith and belief

In trust and in synch

With your convictions of your intentions

Aim high as you set your goals

And reach out some more .

Evolve yourself as you grow

Channelling the flow

Whatever you resist persists

Steer away from impulsive resistance

Yes while resistance is natural in life

Resistance may create tension

Yet it can be a signal of change

In channelling this very resistance.

In allowing to let go completely

Soon tension eases in the flow

In perseverance & patience.

In response than reaction

Creating positive transmutation.

In thoughts words and deeds

Sifting & sailing through your perspectives

Till harmony becomes you.
